Talking about the film Big 'B' says "Ek Ajnabee is adapted
from the English film Men Of Fire and set in Bangkok on a family
of husband, wife and a young child. Kidnapping is a very big crime
over there. Since they are worried about their child and I have
an army background they called me for protection. The film is focused
on abduction and emotional conflict. Since my character is not from
Bangkok, the title of the film is Ek Ajnabee".
As Amitabh Bachchan says he enjoyed tremendously working with the
child artist Richa and even learnt a lot from her. "She is
remarkable actor and very natural". He should know because
he has done films as well as many ads with children. Although, the
director Apoorva Lakhi is comparatively new, still Mr. Bachchan
found him very focused and energetic".

and he is highly stylized. In his exclusive interview with ETC,

view point about item numbers and his entertaining moments with
