Covering the face with a gunny sack piece or old cloth has become a fashion in the films these days. We are seeing this trend from Jawaan where SRK is wrapped in a gunny sack cloth.
Next we could see Kam Haasam wrapped his face with eyes open in the movie Thug Life being directed by Mani Ratnam. Now comes Amitabh Bachchan wrapped his face as Ashwaththama for Kalki directed by Nag Ashwin.
It looked as if a mummy is bandaged in a cloth to preserve it for the future.
The highly anticipated Kalki film, that will feature Prabhas, Deepika Padukone and Disha Patani in prominent roles, revealed in its new teaser that Amitabh Bachchan will take on the role of Ashwatthama.
The teaser spanning a few seconds, opens with the Don star praying in front of a Shiva Linga in what seems like a cave.
He is however interrupted by a child who inquires, “Can you not die? Are you divine? Who are you?” With escalating tension, Big B’s resonant voice proclaims, “Since ancient times, I have awaited the arrival of the Avatar.
I am Guru Drona’s son. Ashwatthama.”
