Are Amitabh Bachchan and Shamitabh director R Balki at loggerheads?

Is all not well between Sr Bachchan and Balki? Read on to find out…

Amitabh Bachchan has been actively blogging and tweeting about his upcoming Shoojit Sircar film Piku. We hear that R Balki who is directing Bachchan in Shamitabh is unhappy with the buzz created around Piku courtesy Sr Bachchan.

A report suggests that Balki has banned Mr Bachchan from writing about Piku in his blog because it will release after Balki’s Shamitabh.

Sr Bachchan wrote about the ban on his blog, hinting that the reason behind no more Piku updates would be the Shamitabh director.

Writing off the rumours about his unhappiness with the buzz around Piku, Balki was quoted saying, “You think Amitabh Bachchan takes instructions from me? Ha ha. If I tell him don’t put Shamitabh’s pictures, you can be sure they will be in his blog. If I say no Piku pics, there will be only those pics. If I say please don’t publish my messages in your blog, you can be sure they will also be there. So yes, I have instructed Amitji not to put Piku or Wazir or anything else only because I am sure he will. And therefore stop more Shamitabh pics from leaking out before time!!!! Ha ha. (sic).”

Now is it just us or is there a hint of sarcasm in what Balki said? Perhaps Sr Bachchan and Balki need t sit down and iron out their differences.
