Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who is currently busy with his upcoming film "Thugs Of Hindostan", says he finds it great to see many women on the set working harder than men.

Amitabh took to his blog to share an update about the film and says that he is delighted to see so many women working on sets.

"The progress on 'Thugs Of Hindostan' continues unabated and there is much to be written about, but confidentiality coerces me to preclude you to such observations and so the silence... silence outside, but inside it is a loud and active audience working on the film in various degrees and folds. Nice...shows the strength of pre production," Big B wrote on his blog.
