Shobana recalls Amitabh Bachchan's reaction after she was asked to change clothes behind a tree during song shoot. Watch
Actor Shobana recently delighted fans with an Instagram live session, during which she shared insights about her experience working with Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan in Kalki 2898 AD. Praising his humility and professionalism, she recalled a memorable incident from a song shoot in Ahmedabad that left a lasting impression on her. (Also Read: Mohanlal reunites with Shobana for his 360th film directed by Tharun Moorthy. See new pics) Shobana spoke about how Big B reacted when she was asked to change clothes behind a tree and said, 'Bachchan sir, from then to now, is the same — the most humble artiste I've worked with. Actually, some of the greatest artistes share one trait: humility. I'll tell you an anecdote about Bachchan sir. I shot a small portion of a song with him many years ago in Ahmedabad, where I had loads of fabric wrapped around me. Bachchan sir had a caravan, and the entire city had come to a standstill because everyone came to see the shoot.' She continued, 'So I asked where my caravan was, as I had many costume changes. Someone remarked, 'Ah, she's from Malayalam cinema, they're all very adjustable, she can change behind a tree.' Bachchan sir heard this on the walkie-talkie, immediately came out, and asked, 'Who said that?' He then invited me to his caravan and stepped out to let me use it. Even during Kalki, despite being in heavy prosthetics, he showed such grace and culture. Whenever someone came to meet him, he would stand up to greet them even with all that weight on him.' The mythological science-fiction film, directed by Nag Ashwin, features Amitabh Bachchan as Ashwatthama, Shobana as Mariam — the leader of Shambhala, Deepika Padukone as SU-M80 alias Sumathi — a pregnant lab subject and the prophesied mother of Kalki, Prabhas in a dual role as a bounty hunter and Karna, and Kamal Haasan as Supreme Yaskin, among others. The film proved to be a major box office success, collecting ₹1042.25 crore worldwide. The second part is set to go on floors in December this year.

‘Kalki 2898 AD' trivia: When Deepika Padukone embraced motherhood on-screen: ‘Why not carry the baby bump a few more months?'
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Deepika Padukone has never shied away from challenging roles, and in Kalki 2898 AD, she impressed the audiences by taking on the emotionally rich part of a mother—this time, with a twist of sci-fi epicness. Let's take a throwback moment at when Deepika opened up about her character in the movie. Speaking during the pre-release event of the Nag Ashwin directorial in Mumbai, Deepika reflected on portraying a mother in the futuristic world of Kalki, joining a trend that's seen her play mother figures in Jawan and Brahmastra. Deepika Padukone and Tiger Shroff at Mumbai Airport At the event, actor Rana Daggubati playfully teased Deepika, referencing her real-life pregnancy and the character she plays in the film. 'She is still in character,' he quipped, pointing at her baby bump. To this, Deepika laughed and responded, 'Yeah, I worked on it for three years, so I thought why not carry the baby bump for a few more months.' From Brahmastra to Kalki: Deepika's Maternal Arc Deepika's role in Kalki 2898 AD isn't her first portrayal of a mother. She previously played Amrita, the mother of Shiva (Ranbir Kapoor), in Brahmastra Part One: Shiva, though mostly through flashbacks. Her character held pivotal importance to the film's storyline, which explored the Astraverse mythology. Though her screen time was limited, it set up her presence in the coming parts of the trilogy. In Kalki, her role appears to be even more significant, with much of the film's emotional core centered around her character and her unborn child in a dystopian world. Co-starring Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, and Disha Patani, the film is one of the most anticipated pan-Indian projects of the year. Marching Ahead with Atlee and Allu Arjun Following the buzz of Kalki, Deepika has already locked in her next big project—a sci-fi action adventure tentatively titled AA22XA6, directed by Kollywood sensation Atlee and starring Telugu superstar Allu Arjun. The makers officially welcomed Deepika with a grand announcement video showing Atlee briefing her on the storyline and her role. 'The Queen marches to conquer! Welcome onboard Deepika Padukone,' read the announcement. Check out our list of the latest Hindi , English , Tamil , Telugu , Malayalam , and Kannada movies .
