102 Not Out- Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor Looks Splendid In This Most Unusual Coming Of Age Saga

It’s the story of a 102 year old but young at heart Amitabh Bachchan who wants to break the record of the longest living man and his 75 year old son who has accepted old age with yoga and a mellowed down lifestyle, much to the charging and ridicule of his father, who wants to send him to old-age home. It is fresh take on the subject of aging and accepting life and death and all the mysteries in between. Among other cast members Jimit Trivedi would probably be seen playing an important supporting role.

The oddity of the casting is one of the most intriguing things about the movie. Rishi Kapoor as the 75 year old stereotypical yoga loving old man is giving a beautiful contrast to Amitabh’s character and going by the trailer their chemistry is going to be the USP of the film.

In the first few seconds of the trailer, one thing that jumps out instantl is Amitabh Bachchan’s Gujarati accent.With his legendary penchant for excellence, he is nailing the accent pretty well.

The trailer gives a glimpse of a possibly emotional and sensitive story about parental bonding, but the fact that the film will mostly rely on the witty and fun exchange between Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor is evident. Director Umesh Shukla who directed Paresh Rawal and Akshay Kumar starrer Oh My God is one director you expect to come up with a stirring story in a witty and breezy yet though provoking package and 102 would probably go along the same lines

Playing almost throughout the trailer, the background score of the film seems promising. It is helping a great deal to maintain the upbeat and breezy feel of the film and is really pleasant on the ears.
