Bachchan is currently shooting for Yash Raj Films’ Thugs of Hindostan. Meanwhile, Kapoor’s upcoming project is Patel ki Punjabi Shaadi.
In his book Khullam Khulla, Kapoor had mentioned how Bachchan didn't give his co-stars enough credit. Looks like the veteran actors have gotten past any bad blood that could've existed between them.
The duo had first featured together in Kabhi Kabhie (1976) and later acted in Manmohan Desai’s blockbuster Amar Akbar Anthony (1977). While Kapoor played the character of Akbar, Bachchan was Anthony. The duo was last seen together in the 1991 costume drama Ajooba.
