Big B, who is currently in Glasgow to shoot for Badla, tweeted, "Confined. Conscious and content. Until, the film releases. This be the life of creativity.. Badla moves each day. Finally away from and distant from prosthetics and heavy costume armour." Badla is directed by Sujoy Ghosh and also features Taapsee Pannu, his PINK co-star. Amitabh Bachchan also shared two photos of himself, in what appears to be his look from Badla). Take a look:
 

The 75-year-old actor had earlier made a case against the prosthetics, which is nomrally used to enhance a character's look in the film. Describing the prosthetic make-up trials as a "torture," Mr Bachchan wrote on his blog: "Tomorrow is a torture. Prosthetic make-up for two film looks and trials. That sticky beard that extra beard that head locks and the lot. I thought I had had a lifetime of it but no, there is always more to come."

After completing a schedule of Brahmastra, Big B flew to Glasgow. Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment is co-producing Badla.
