Amitabh missing in Paa: KJo, others

Mumbai, December 04: Fresh from the premiere of Paa, the film fraternity found time to tweet its responses on Amitabh Bachchan playing a 13-year-old afflicted with progeria, with his son Abhishek and Vidya Balan playing his parents in the film.

Karan Johar: Amitabh Bachchan is just pure genius! Paa is all soul….all heart…way to go! Superb!

Tarun Manshukhani: Amitji is truly an amazing actor. I didn’t notice him even for a minute in the film as he takes you into Auro’s life. Be proud Abhishek, your son rocks!

Ayesha Takia: Amitji is phenominal..he really is fantastic! A must watch! Loved it.

Rohan Sippy: Congrats to Balki and all his team for making Paa, a film that oozes heart and soul, with tons of wit!

Madhur Bhandarkar: Paa is brilliant. One of Amitji’s best performances. A 65-year-old playing a 13-year-old and with such conviction. Amazing!

Riteish Deshmukh: AB Corp misleads saying Paa stars Amitabh Bachchan — one watches the entire film and he is not even seen in one frame. But what you get is Auro. Abhishek rocks, Vidya gives a super and mature performance and the new kid on the block Auro steals your heart.
