On asking about this new strategy about why thespian actor was roped in for commentary, "Shamitabh" director Balki said, "Mr. Bachchan's voice is the star of my film 'Shamitabh'. The plot revolves around the baritone."

"I personally feel, and there are millions who will agree with me, that there is nothing that Mr Bachchan's voice can't do. He has done voiceovers in many feature films and has also lent his voice to documentaries and social causes. The one thing that he hadn't done was cricket commentary."
