So says megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who will be teaming up with wife Jaya in the upcoming home production of his make-up man Deepak Sawant, `Ganga Devi', a Bhojpuri film.

"When your wife is on the sets with you...Your behavior changes. There are lots of restrictions...There is always a discipline on the sets. Or else the situation at home becomes tense...Out of control," Bachchan said to guffaws at a promotional event of the film this evening.

In recent years, Mr and Mrs Big B have acted together in Karan Johar's `Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna'.

Directed by Abhishek Chaddha, `Ganga Devi' revolves around the theme of reservation for women in elected bodies.

 

Bachchan, who plays a key role, said Sawant was like a member of his family. "I am glad that I am a part of this film. Deepak is like a family. I know him for 30-35 years. He is my make-up man and he takes care of my face. It was my duty to give him something in return. When he approached me for this film, without any hesitation I did it."

Big B had appeared in Sawant's previous Bhojpuri films including `Ganga' and `Gangotri'.
