Big B elated to shoot with real-life boxers

The 73-year-old shared on his blog some photographs of himself accompanied by the boxers in the boxing ring.

“Those artists that were in the shot were all national-level boxers. Such a joy to meet and feel their enthusiasm,” Amitabh wrote.

The Piku star later got nostalgic and reminisced about his school days when he used to do boxing.

“In Sherwood, when boxing was compulsory I used to lose boxing tournaments. Even though my weight was for a lower category, my height used to put me in a higher weight and better and stronger opponents.

 They warned me to withdraw, for they feared physical damage to me. But my PT instructor disagreed and I fought,” he added.On the work front, Amitabh will next be seen in Pink.
