On the other hand, 'Bunty Aur Babli' which featured Amitabh Bachchan in a distinctive role, hit theatres back in 2005. The film was directed by Shaad Ali, which also starred Abhishek Bachchan and Rani Mukerji. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan also made a special appearance in the all-time hit song 'Kajra Re'. The adventure-comedy went on to become a rage at that time and is still loved by everyone.
