Big B had shot 'Aladin', 'Paa', 'Rann' and 'Shoebite' in 2008-09 and recently won the National Award for his performance as a 12-year-old progeria hit child in 'Paa'.

Sources close to the film said A-list action directors and stunt co-ordinators from Hollywood have been confirmed for the mega-budget project. According to them, action and stunt directors who have worked on movies like 'James Bond', 'Casino Royale', 'Bourne Identity series, Spiderman and 'Swordfish' and visual effects team which worked on '2012' would be part of the technical team.
Bachchan himself will do all his major action and stunts under the personal and direct supervision of the Hollywood action and visual effects team, sources said.
