Goodbye: Amitabh Bachchan Recommended Neena Gupta For The Part After Seeing Her Performance In Badhaai Ho - EXCLUSIVE
The cast of Vikas Bahl’s Goodbye just got more interesting. Besides Amitabh Bachchan and Rashmika Mandannna who play father and daughter, the  incredible Neena Gupta has joined the cast as Mr Bachchan’s wife. Apparently on Mr Bachchan’s suggestion.

Says a source close to Mr Bachchan, “In recent years he has been progressively feeling the scarcity of co-stars. Actresses like Jaya Prada and Dimple Kapadia have been paired with Bachchan Saab once too often. He needed a fresh co-star, and Neena Gupta seems just right.”

Apparently Mr Bachchan saw Neena’s career-changing  performance in Badhai  Ho and had  decided to she would be  his co-star soon.

“That  time has come now. Mr Bachchan and Neenaji would be the hottest autumnal  couple  since Clint Eastwood  and Meryl Streep in Bridges Of Madison County,” a friend of Mr  Bachchan  enthuses.

Neena says, "I am very excited and nervous and happy about working with Mr Bachchan."
