    Trailer – Kick Ass!

    Amitabh in PAA : Full Trailer
    A lot of us have been anxious about Amitabh’s look in PAA. The trailer is out.  In this film, Amitabh suffers from a rare genetic disorder called Progeria where he ages faster than the normal biological clock.  Abishek and Vidya play parents to him. I like the music ( Illaya Raja). This is Balki’s next after Cheeni Kum. Enjoy!
