00:00Bollywood's legendary actor Big B, Amitabh Bachchan, returns in Dubai to promote his

00:24latest movie, Booth Nut Returns.

00:27The actor, who has appeared in over 150 Hindu films, says he enjoyed his first UAE premiere.

00:34It's always a joy to be here.

00:40As I said in my interview, you know, it's like stepping out of my home in Mumbai and

00:44stepping into another home.

00:46The fraternity is very friendly, it's very warm.

00:49We have many from our own land here and they understand us and they show all their affection.

00:55So it's always a joy to be here.

00:57Booth Nut Returns is a tale of good against evil, weak against powerful, and past against

01:02future.

01:03A sequel to the 2008 film Booth Nut, the second installment features Amitabh Bachchan in a

01:09leading role along with child star Parth Balirao, Boman Irani, and Usha Jadhav in supporting

01:15roles.

01:16I always feel that if your colleague is not performing well enough, you're own performance

01:19matters.

01:20So when you have, you know, recognized Stanley Curtis, Boman Irani in front of you, there's

01:28always a joy because you could be the greatest actor in the world, but if your colleague

01:33is not responding properly, then you fall flat.

01:37So it's always a combined effort.

01:38I am pretty good in movies with Mr. Bachchan because he raises the bar and makes you feel

01:48very very special on the set.

01:49So for me, I do my best simply because, as he said, you're only as good as your co-actors.

01:58Makes it a wonderful experience.

02:00Unlike what people may think otherwise, it's a very unselfish industry.

02:05The moment we get selfish, then we're destroying the craft.

02:10I can't think that, you know, I'm here to outdo my colleague.

02:16The moment you get that intent in your mind, you're not being honest to your character.

02:21You're not being honest to the character or the story or whatever you're set up to do.

02:25While the cast are here to promote the movie, cinema was not the only thing on their minds.

02:30The stars also shared their thoughts about the IPL games in the UAE.

02:35That's very difficult to say, but right now, because I'm from Mumbai, I would say Mumbai, India.

02:39We don't have that kind of money.

02:41And I have no idea where you looked in my direction.

02:43Yeah, exactly.

02:46It's not going to happen.

02:49She's in a state of shock, it's not going to happen?

02:52Of course not.

02:53Unless we build a city of our own and then we buy one.

02:57Boothnut Returns will be shown across the cinemas in the UAE starting April 10.

03:04Hi, this is Padma Naira.

03:05This is Boman Irani.

03:06This is Amitabh Bachchan and you're watching GNTV.

03:15Oh my God.
