Mumbai, Dec 15 (IANS) Hollywood star Al Pacino is likely to attend the London premiere of Bollywood epic "Mughal-e-Azam". London-based business tycoon Akbar Asif, the son of late K. Asif who made the movie, has managed to convince Pacino to attend the premiere at the Royal Albert Hall. Pacino evinced interest in the film after newspapers compared it to the Hollywood classic "Ben Hur" for its panoramic setting and spectacular filming. Also, it received praise given the limited financial and technical resouces available to Indian films in the 1960s - when "Mughal-e-Azam" was orignianlly released. Celebrities from Mumbai will also fly down for the premiere, the first for a film at the imposing auditorium.
