I'll not do Big B's films, says Dhanush

  • I'll not do Big B's films, says Dhanush
Dhanush loves Amitabh Bachchan's films, but says he is not qualified enough to star in remakes of the megastar's movies.
 
Asked if he would like to do a remake of Amitabh's films, Dhanush, who will be seen with Bachchan in "Shamitabh", told IANS: "I will definitely not do a film of his because I can't carry it. I am not qualified enough to do his films. As far as his films are concerned, I just loved 'Sholay' and 'Deewaar'."
 
Directed by R. Balakrishnan, "Shamitabh" also features Akshara Haasan.
 
Meanwhile, the southern star says he is still trying to learn Hindi.
 
"I am still learning the language. It will take time. I try talking to my friends and relatives in Hindi. They keep correcting me. I am running around and planning to take tuitions," he said.
 
Asked how does he manage to balance between south and Bollywood films, he said: "You have time for everything if you plan carefully. For me, both the industries are equally important."
