    Big B To Lend Voice To Disney’s Beauty And The Beast

    Disney’s Beauty And The Beast is all set for a grand theatrical production and Amitabh Bachchan will also be a part of it. The veteran actor has been roped in to lend his voice to the prologue of the show. Confirming the same, Big B said, “I am very happy to be part of this pioneering effort to advance a new and unexplored format of entertainment in India”.

    “We approached Mr Bachchan almost a month ago. He has the best voice in the industry. Since Beauty Aand The Beast is Disney India’s first Broadway-style musical, we wanted it to be special for our audiences here. Given the scale and grandeur of the show, we wanted to associate with someone of that stature”, an insider told Hindustan Times.

    It is said that producer Siddharth Roy Kapur has personally looked into the matter to rope in Amitabh Bachchan. The insider said, “When Siddharth met Mr Bachchan, he made him listen to the prologue from the original Broadway production of BATB, and he loved it”. Other cast on the board include Bugs Bhargava as Cogsworth, Brian Tellis as Lumiere, Meher Mistry as Belle and Edwin Joseph as Beast.
