Director39s Ribhu Dasgupta39s thriller "TE3N" was earlier supposed to be shot in Goa, but when the permission to shoot there didn39t materialise, the film39s lead actor Amitabh Bachchan suggested shifting to Kolkata."We were to shoot the film in Goa, but there were some problems with permissions... They makers were back in my office saying, 39What do we do?39 I said, 39Let39s go to Kolkata39. They asked me if I39ll go to Kolkata and I said, 39Why not?39" Amitabh said at the trailer launch event of the film here. "We virtually settled in Kolkata and finished the film in one long schedule," he added. Amitabh plays the character of John Biswas in the film, who is out to find his missing granddaughter amidst mysterious situations.About his character in the film, Big B said: "He is an Anglo-Indian. One of the reasons we were shooting in Goa because we wanted the character to be Anglo-Goan, but when we shifted to Kolkata, we made him Anglo-Indian. There is a very large population of Anglo-Indians in Kolkata and I had interacted with them through my experiences of eight years". Big B said that Kolkata has been "very close" to him. "I39ve been very attracted to it, primarily because when you get your first job, you get that independence, start living on your own," Amitabh said. "Everyone there had something fresh to say, something unique to do. There is this famous 39adda39 where everyone gathers and talks about various subjects. It39s such a wonderful feeling. So, for me to get back and visit old sites, just being in that environment has always been very exciting," he added.He still remembers the restaurants, tram, theatres, buildings and how they have now changed over the years. "But the people haven39t changed, even today, ready to give that much love. And the kind of love you receive from there, I don39t believe any other artist receives that in any other part of the world," Amitabh said."TE3N" also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Vidya Balan. The film is set for a June 10 release.
