Veteran actors Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor will be seen in the roles of father and son in upcoming film 102 Not Out, reports Hindustan Times.

Big B will star as a 102-year-old father, while Rishi plays the role of his son, who is 75 years old.

The film is based on the Gujarati play of the same name and will be directed by Umesh Shukla (of Oh My God fame).

Rishi expressed his delight at the opportunity to reunite on screen with Big B:

Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor have previously appeared in several hit films including Amar Akbar Anthony, Kabhi Kabhie, Naseeb and Coolie.

The shooting of the film began this week and is expected to conclude by end of July.

“Amitji and Rishiji are collaborating after 26 years. They are playing Gujarati characters for the first time. Being a Gujarati myself, I had certain references in my mind which we used to create their look,” Umesh told Mumbai Mirror.
