Admitting his mistake for casting Amitabh Bachchan in such a role, Ram Gopal Varma expressed, “Yes, it was a mistake considering his image will not go in that kind of a storyline.”
For the unversed, Nishabd was released in 2007. The movie drew inspiration from the Hollywood movie American Beauty and the Indian film Anokha Rishta. Besides Amitabh Bachchan and Jiah Khan, the movie also had Aftab Shivdasani, Revathi, Shraddha Arya, Rukhsar, and others in pivotal roles. The plot of Nishabd revolves around a 60-year-old family man photographer. Things changed upside down when the photographer fell for his daughter’s 18-year-old friend while clicking her hot and bold pictures.
Though the movie received praise for its performances, but was panned for its controversial plot and subject. At the box office, it was a big flop.
