Abhishek Bachchan's The Bigg Bull Based On Real Life Story And The Bull Of Dalal Street Is Fictional, Says Iqbal Khan
Bollywood and Television actor Iqbal Khan recently revealed that Abhishek Bachchan starrer The Big Bull directed by Kookie Gulati is based on the real-life story of stockbroker Harshad Mehta
Abhishek Bachchan will soon begin shooting for Kookie
Gulati's movie The Big Bull, which is based on the rise and fall of the Big Bull-stockbroker
Harshad Mehta. Interestingly, Mohammed Iqbal Khan is also playing the similar
role of a stockbroker in Ullu App's upcoming web-series The Bull Of Dalal
Street.
When quizzed about the same Iqbal, who earlier did the shows like Kahiin To Hoga, Kavyanjali and Tumhari Pakhi said, "Such things have happened earlier as well, where a film and a web-series have been made on the same subject. In our case, the backdrop might be similar, but there is a huge difference in terms of treatment and presentation. Secondly, our series is a fictional story about a common man, who rose to become one of the most influential brokers in a short span of time, while Abhishek's movie is based on the life of Harshad Mehta."
Recently a lot of films have clashed with web series, which were based on the same subject. Like Vivek Oberoi's PM Narendra Modi & Eros Now's Modi: Journey of A Common Man and Akshay Kumar's Mission Mangal & ALT Balaji's Misson Over Mars. Do you think the digital platform has turned a big competition to big-budget films? The actor said, "I don't think so. The target audience for both the mediums are different. Also, there are a lot of things which we can do in a web-series, but in the movie, we can't."
For those uninitiated, with 'The Bull Of Dalal Street' Iqbal
will be making his digital debut. The web-series also stars Ashmit Patel and
Dil Se Dil Tak actor Kunal Verma.
