Amitabh To Fly South for Ilaiyaraja

It's going to be one helluva packed weekend for Big B. On Thursday after the premiere of Paa, which finally wrapped up, he drives down early morning on Friday to Lonavla to shoot for Bigg Boss.

After a hectic day of Boss-ing early Saturday morning, the Big B leaves for Chennai with a print of Paa to show to the musical maestro Ilaiyaraja who didn't want to fly down to Mumbai for the premiere.

Confirming Big B's Chennai plans Paa director, Balki says, "Raja Sir(Ilaiyaraja)didn't want to leave his work and come. Yes, Amitji is indeed going to be in Chennai on Saturday. And Raja Sir will be watching it. Friday was impossible because of Amitji's Bigg Boss commitment."

After recording for Ilaiyaraja last month Big B has become hugely hooked to the musical maestro's talents. The minute he heard that Ilaiyaraja couldn't make it for the Mumbai premiere, he offered to fly down with Paa to Chennai.

Says Balki, "When the two recorded a song together recently it was magic. They were like two children discovering a fascinating compatibility that they never knew existed."

The super-busy Bachchan is willing to accommodate the musical maestro's commitments and fly his film to Chennai.
