Richard Gere has agreed to share the screen with Amitabh Bachchan in Leena Yadavh's gambling movie Teen Patti.
Gere, who is famous for appearing in Pretty Woman and Chicago, will make his Bollywood debut in a brief cameo after Pierce Brosnan reportedly rejected the role.
The Hollywood actor is well known across India for raising awareness about AIDS, while he also gained notoriety for kissing Shilpa Shetty at an event in New Delhi.
Teen Patti tells the story of a professor who instructs five of his most brilliant students on how to win at high stakes gambling.
The film, which is believed to be inspired by Hollywood's 21, also features Siddharth Kher, Dhruv Ganesh, Vaibhav Talwar and Shraddha Kapoor.
