The 12th Marrakech International Film Festival begins November 30 and will go on till December 8, 2012. It has always promoted Bollywood, but it has a special tribute to Indian cinema this time. And legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan will be President of the Indian delegation and lead it to Morocco for the event. Also, as a tribute to filmmaker Yash Chopra who passed away on October 21 this year, the festival will screen his last directorial film, Jab Tak Hai Jaan (JTHJ).

Which means both SRK and Bachchan are slated to hang out on the same day at the same event.
Bachchan will, of course, be there for the opening night film screening – Karan Johar’s debut Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Johar and Jaya Bachchan will accompany Big B. KJo’s recent release Student Of The Year will also be shown at Marrakech on December 2.
