Akshay Kumar's Padman is one of the most awaited movies of this year and fans will be delighted to learn that Amitabh Bachchan will be a part of it as well. The megastar and Akshay have worked together previously in movies like Waqt and Aankhen.

Big B mentioned his appearance on his blog and said that he will do a cameo in Padman. "I work tomorrow... a shoot for R Balki... for the film he does with Akshay Kumar... A special appearance for a few minutes..." he wrote.

"Balki does carry his sincerity at every step of his creativity, and must have my presence in some form or another, and so here I am more of which shall come by when the act of the morrow is done," Amitabh added. The shooting took place in New Delhi.

The movie will be produced by Twinkle Khanna under Mrs Funnybones Movies and it will star Akshay, Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte.
