Lucknow: Megastar Amitabh Bachchan on Tuesday started filming for his next “Gulabo Sitabo” here.

The 76-year-old actor, who recently finished shooting for “Chehre”, took to Twitter to share the news.

“One done another begun. Travel, location change, look change, crew change, colleagues change, city change and story change. From Lucknow today ‘Gulabo Sitabo’ and the look? Well, what can I say…” he wrote.

The film, directed by Shoojit Sircar, marks first collaboration between Bachchan and Ayushmann Khurrana.

Set in Lucknow, the film is billed as a quirky family comedy, penned by Sircar’s longtime collaborator Juhi Chaturvedi.
