Amitabh Bachchan played an interesting role as a cop in Shaad Ali's Bunty Aur Babli. With Rani Mukerji and Abhishek Bachchan in the lead,  Bunty Aur Babli was a commercial success at the box-office. Shaad Ali created history with Kajra Re when Aishwarya Rai danced beautifully with her father in law and husband Abhishek Bachchan in the film. Kajra Re became dance national anthem in India in the 2000s era. But the dynamic duo has not associated again for any movie after Bunty Aur Babli.

Thugs of Hindostan directed by Dhoom 3 fame director Vijay Krishna Acharya was counted amongst the most-anticipated films of the decade. With Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan and Katrina Kaif collaborating for a YRF project, everything was in favour in the film. But unfortunately, the Vijay Krishna Acharya failed to create the magic of the silver screen due to its weak script. After Thugs of Hindostan the actor-filmmaker combination have not done any movie together.
