In director Sanjay Leela Bhansali's "Black" Amitabh Bachchan is a teacher who transforms the life of a blind, deaf and mute girl, played by Rani Mukherjee.

Living in a world of black, which is penetrated by neither sound nor colour, Michelle McNally finds redemption through Debraj Sahai, a battle weary teacher, who undertakes the challenge of teaching the defiant and headstrong girl.

The two stubborn individuals tread a path less taken, while battling frustration, ridicule and despair.

Bhansali had conceived "Black" long before he made the Salman Khan-Manisha Koirala starrer "Khamoshi", which also dealt with the congenitally deaf and mute.

The supporting cast consists of Ayesha Kapur, Shernaz Patel, Dhritiman Chaterji and Nandana Sen. Writer Bhavani Iyer, cinematographer Ravi Chandran, editor Bela Segal and art director Omung Kumar are also part of the team.

Monty provides the background score for "Black", which unusually for a Bollywood movie, has no songs. Bhansali believes there is music even in silence.

While Bhansali's "Devdas" saw two of Bollywood's greatest heroines - Madhuri Dixit and Aishwarya Rai - sharing screen space with Shah Rukh Khan, "Black" will showcase the strengths of Amitabh and Rani.
