SHANKAR: "AMITABH WAS OFFERED RAJINI'S ROLE"


Director Shankar, in an interview to a popular television channel, had revealed that the antagonist role in Endhiran was initially offered to Amitabh Bachchan. However, the actor refused the offer as he felt it would not be accepted by the audience. Moreover, several of Big B’s films in which he had played the negative role bombed at the box office.

Shankar said that when Rajinikanth was told that his dear friend Amitabh Bachchan is being considered for the role, he was happy and encouraged the director to cast him.

During the interview, Shankar stated that Endhiran would be a never-seen-before experience for the Indian movie buffs.
