This is what happened when it came to finalizing a wheel chair for Amitabh Bachchan inWazir. Producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra had sent across 43 different types of wheelchair to Amitabh Bachchan’s residence over a span of 4 months to zero in on a wheelchair.
Vidhu Vinod Chopra, who is known to be a perfectionist, made Sr Bachchan try out various types of wheelchairs. In fact, he used to ask Mr Bachchan to operate the wheelchair himself and used to watch its movements carefully to finalise the wheel chair.
Initially, Amitabh Bachchan felt that it would be a normal wheel chair and would be zeroed in quickly, but seeing Vidhu’s perseverance towards such minute detailing, it took almost four months to fix upon a wheelchair, which left Big B impressed.
Wazir is an action film starring Amitabh Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar. It also has other actors like John Abraham and Neil Nitin Mukesh in pivotal roles. Wazir is produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra and is directed by Bejoy Nambiar and is slated for a December release.
