Akshara Haasan who makes her debut in R Balki’s Shamitabh plays a tough role in the film, according to the film-maker. “She’s playing a person who is dealing with the massive egos of two men played by Amitabh Bachchan and Dhanush. Even though it is her first film, she has pulled off the role beautifully. She’s a natural actress and did not require any training in acting.
