Amitabh Bachchan is all set to prove his mettle in Marathi cinema with his next titled AB Aani CD, opposite veteran actor Vikram Gokhale. After the first poster of the movie was unveiled, fans have shared their excitement to watch Big B in a Marathi movie. The latest report claims that since Marathi films focus on economic budgets, Amitabh Bachchan chose to wear outfits from his personal wardrobe to avoid stressing out the makers of the film.

According to reports, when the producer of AB Aani CD Akshay Bardapurkar requested Amitabh Bachchan to be ready for the costume measurements, the latter asked Akshay to not worry about his outfits in the film. Big B told Barapurkar that he would bring his own outfits. Interestingly, on the day of shooting, Big B reportedly came with twenty outfits and then kept them in his vanity van. The Piku star asked the crew members to select which would be appropriate for his scenes. Amitabh knew Marathi films have modest budgets and his generous gesture genuinely was of great help to the entire team, as added by the report.
