Amitabh Bachchan has started shooting again, and BR Films' Baabul is eagerly resuming work.

Baabul -- from the makers of Baghban -- is being promoted as a socially relevant family saga, and director Ravi Chopra is targeting a Diwali release.

Baabul stars Bachchan, Hema Malini [Images], Rani Mukerji [Images], Salman Khan [Images], John Abraham [Images] and Om Puri [Images].

The shooting is expected to be completed by July.
