Amitabh Bachchan had already requested Shah Rukh Khan to come to the premiere of 'Paa' being held today, and also sent him passes for the purpose, but after watching Auro in promos, SRK's kids –Aryan and Suhana--asked him to make arrangements for them too. Big B was generous as usual, and sent him six more passes, instead of five as demanded by SRK after his children's request.
Sources say that King Khan and Big B also discussed at length about the difficulties that Amitabh Bachchan must have faced while enacting the character of Auro, before the topic of tickets for the film's premiere came. Amitabh has also sent six tickets of the premiere to perfectionist Aamir Khan. The film features Abhishek Bachchan and Vidya Balan too in pivotal roles.
In fact, Amitabh Bachchan does not want to leave any stone unturned in making his upcoming flick 'Paa' a success at the box office and inviting the big Khans—Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan—was part of that strategy. Both Khans have already given their consent to attend the premiere of 'Paa' being held today in Mumbai. Besides them, Bachchans have also invited almost all the big names of bollywood and they are all expected to attend the hyped premiere today.
In the meantime, Amitabh Bachchan has been visiting schools to interact with children. Recently, kids at a Juhu school were pleasantly surprised to see Auro visiting them and spending time with them not only during studies but also in canteen. In fact, Amitabh, aka, Auro shared with the kids Vada Pav at the school canteen. Vidya Balan, who plays Auro's mother, picked him up from the school in the noon.
Sources from the school say that Amitabh Bachchan as Auro, was dropped by mother Vidya Balan, as any other normal child, at the school. Then he began his day with attending moral science classes, followed by jingle making and game of basket ball.
In fact, Amitabh Bachchan has plans to interact with the children of different school in several cities across the country to promote the flick. As the flick is about a 13-year-old progeric child Auro, the support of kids for the flick was deemed necessary for its success at the box office.
'Paa' has been directed by Balki, who had earlier made romantic comedy 'Cheeni Kum' with Amitabh Bachchan and Tabu. This time Big B does not have any love interest in the film, and instead Vidya Balan and Abhishek Bachchan are essaying the part of his parents.
Amitabh's character Auro suffers from a rare genetic disease of progeria, which causes premature ageing of a person. Another USP of the flick is Abhishek playing Amitabh's father in it, quite opposite of the characters they play in real life.
