New Delhi:

The first poster of R Balki's Shamitabh was released on Monday.

The poster shows lead actors Amitabh Bachchan and Dhanush in opera-style jackets. Their names also highlight an old-fashioned cinema hoarding.

The title also looks different i.e. Dhanu-SHAMITABH-Bachchan.

The 'audio poster' featuring Big B can also be heard where a reporter asks Shamitabh when his next "picture will release".

However, a drunken Shamitabh (played by Big B) answers, "When the audio and video get mixed, how you can call it a picture?" He adds, "It's not a picture, but a mixture."

In response, the reporter asks him, “When is your next 'mixture' releasing?" and the answer flashes across the clip - Shamitabh will release on February 6, 2015.

Notably, Bollywood Superstar Shahrukh Khan was earlier roped in for Dhanush’s role and the title was thought as ‘Shanawaz’. But later the name was changed according to Dhanush’s name. 

Tamil actor Kamal Haasan's younger daughter Akshara also makes her Bollywood debut with the film. R Balki previously directed Mr Bachchan in Cheeni Kum (2007) and Paa (2009).
