102 Not Out Teaser Review: A Very Unusual Father And Son Story To Look Forward To!

Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor to be seen on screen together after almost 27 years!

 

The trailer of 102 Not Out has been released and this ageless comedy starring Amitabh Bachchan the father and Rishi Kapoor as the son seems like a very interesting film to look forward to.

What is more interesting is that both Amitabh and Rishi Kapoor will be seen after almost 27 years together after their last film together.It is one of the most unusual father and son bond and love story based on playwright Saumya Joshi’s well-known Gujarati play by the same name.The two of them earlier released a very sweet video asking people to watch the teaser.

Talking about the film, Mr. Amitabh Bachchan, who plays the role of a 102 year old man said, “Teaming up with Chintu ji after so many years .. after so many successful historic films, has been the greatest joy during ‘102 Not Out’ a novel story, competent direction and a most qualified crew, has made the experience even greater. I know the country loves the younger, fresh and vibrant new generation – as must it should deservedly, but whoever said the ‘oldies’ are not capable to do similar. We know you may not love us, but given a chance, we shall not disappoint you either and that is as immodest as I can get .. BADUMBAAAAAAAAA !!! ”

Rishi Kapoor plays his 75-year-old son and he said, “Being in 102 Not Out brought back a lot of fond memories and fun I have shared with Amitji during my younger days. I am glad to reunite with him on such a special and unusual film. It will definitely delight our fans!”

In the trailer, Amitabh looks like a mischievous and jolly old man, almost like the character we saw him play in Piku, while Rishi Kapoor’s get up reminds us of his fun grandfather character in Kapoor and Sons, however, he looks quieter unlike his loud character in Kapoor and Sons.

Director Umesh Shukla said, “ 102 Not Out is a highly entertaining and extremely successful Gujarati play that has won over the youth and family audiences across the board. The idea of adapting it into a Hindi feature came from the fact that the relationship between a parent and a child is universal and the one where love supersedes everything else, including age! Amitabh Sir and Rishi Sir together are a dream cast for anyone and I sensed a deep responsibility in bringing them together. I am thankful to Treetop Entertainment for helping me realize my vision and we couldn’t have asked for a better partner than Sony Pictures India to take this universal story to global audiences as we hope to bring them one of the finest cinematic experiences.”

The film is slated to release on 4 May 2018.
