Billu Barber (2009) Promo - Shahrukh Khan (Must Watch)

Billu Barber is an upcoming Bollywood film starring Shahrukh Khan, Irrfan Khan and Lara Dutta in the
lead roles. Produced by Khan himself and directed by Priyadarshan, the film also features Om Puri,
Rajpal Yadav and Asrani in supporting roles with guest appearances by actresses Kareena Kapoor,
Deepika Padukone[1], Priyanka Chopra[2] and Katrina Kaif.[3] The film, which is a remake of the
Malayalam film Kadha Parayumbol, has already been remade in Tamil as Kuselan starring Pasupathy and
Rajinikanth following a poor box office reception. The project is scheduled to release in February
13, 2009.[4] Director Priyadarshan signed on actors Shahrukh Khan and Lara Dutta to essay pivotal
roles in the film. However, Kumar didn't find the film interesting and opted out of the project[5]
whilst Tabu refused the film as she didn't want to work with Irrfan Khan.[6] The director then
offered Kumar's and Tabu's role to Shahrukh Khan and Amisha Patel respectively, and both of them
agreed to do the film.[7] Patel later opted out of the film as she felt her character's role was
not substantial enough[8] and sources had indicated that Juhi Chawla was signed on for the role.[9]
In April 2008, the director announced that he had signed on Lara Dutta to essay the role of the
barber's wife.[10] The cast began filming for the project on April 8, 2008[11] and according to
Shahrukh Khan, "the film is a sweet story of friendship...quite similar to the bond shared between
Krishna and Sudama."[1] The film will also have guest appearances by actresses Kareena Kapoor,
Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra & Katrina Kaif, who are reportedly doing item numbers in the
film.[12]
