Meanwhile, ‘I Want To Talk’ is the solo new Hindi release of this week but has been receiving tough competition from ‘Karan Arjun’, which was re-released in theatres on November 22. According to Pinkvilla, the movie earned Rs 25 to 30 lakh on its opening day and its numbers are expected to be higher on the weekend.

In an interview with Scroll.in, director Shoojit Sircar talked about his experience of working with Abhishek Bachchan for the first time. He shared, “While working with Mr Bachchan, I had started interacting with Abhishek. We wanted to collaborate for a long time, but didn’t find the right fit. I go for pure casting. The actor must absolutely melt into the character. For example, when Varun does not fit into my kind of films and genre, but somewhere I found my Dan in him for October. Similarly, I found Abhishek to be exactly the character I had visualised. There was a keenness to work with me. We met and tried to understand each other. During that process, we learnt a lot of things and that’s how we hit upon the character.”

Talking about the plot of his movie, he shared, “It’s a simple, slice of life film about families, fathers and daughters, everyday life. I Want to Talk is the story of an NRI, a father-daughter relationship that covers the passage of time. Like Piku or October, this film looks at the things we deal with every day. We often feel the task is going to be insurmountable, or life is going to be tough, but then we look back and realise that it was just a small thing.”

On the work front, Abhishek Bachchan will next star in the movie ‘Be Happy’, which will release on Prime Video. He was last seen in the sports film ‘Ghoomer’. He will also be seen in ‘Housefull 5’.
