The advertisement that, Ben Kingsley would be alive with the Big B in Leena Yadav's Teen Patti comes as a shock.

According to insiders, the blur was complete abounding months ago...but for 5 canicule of plan with a Caucasian actor.

Says a arch affiliate of the unit, "It was a bit catchy and complicated. Getting a white-skinned amateur at the endure date of the blur wasn't easy. Everyone knew that the blur was about complete. So, abutting a big name appeared absurd. Websites and newspapers weren't authoritative it easier for us by cogent the apple that we've casting Pierce Brosnan or Richard Gere in the role. Where did they appear in? We didn't even alpha casting until our ambassador alternate from her amusement a few months ago."

Ben Kingsley, it seems was agog for a continued time, to be allotment of an Indian project. While cutting in Tunisia with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan for The Endure Legion, he had offered to do Taj Mahal with her featuring them as Shahjahan and Mumtaz Mahal.

But recession dead that project. And Kingsley's accuracy to be associated with a absolutely Indian activity remained unfulfilled...until now. And never mind, if in the words of a aggregation member, "It's a role that any amateur can do."
