"Balki keeps saying he wants to design a film with us (Big B and Rekha) but let's see if somebody comes with interesting script. Why not," he added.
Amitabh Bachchan says for ‘Shamitabh’, they have recorded the dialogues before shooting for the movie.

"The entire script of the film was recorded first, all the dialogues I recorded in my voice. When we used to shoot, we used to play the recordings and shoot. There was too much of work and we had worked hard for this film. Balki said do what I say and now after the film was ready, we again did the dubbing. It's a different film for me as I have never done like this before and the credit goes to Balki."
