Both Bachchan and Khan are critically acclaimed and commercially successful actors in India and will be seen in an upcoming film together.
The project has been titled Thugs of Hindostan and is based on the book "Confessions of a Thug" by Philip Meadows Taylor.
Bachchan, the quintessential 'angry young man' of Indian cinema, was born in 1942 to Teji Bachchan and renowned poet Harivansh Rai.
He started his cinematic career as a narrator in Mrinal Sen's Bhuvan Shome, after he was reportedly rejected by the All India Radio as his voice was deemed unfavourable for the medium.
Though his first film failed to earn him recognition, the Big B struck a chord with the audience with his next, Anand (1971).
