Angry young man (Amitabh Bachchan)

Angry young man (Amitabh Bachchan)
Not to guess about whom I am talking, definitely:
Amitabh Bachchan
This tall guy had influenced every corner of this world. “Jab se hosh sambhala hai” I am great fan of this guy. The first movie I saw was “Amar Akbar Anthony” at the age of 6-7 yrs, I have a indistinct remembrance of this movie which made me immense aficionado of this lambuji. In fact I remember another movie where audience had gone round the bend in theatre and started dancing and throwing money on the screen. Those days people used to keep AB hair style and act themselves as AB. Definitely I was one to follow the bandwagon. In fact I had bought a shirt with movie name embossed “DON”. Spilling his dialogues was common in every street. Every street corner had hair saloon displaying his hair style. He was / is the number one guy in Hindi film industry. The team Prakash Mehra, Javed Akhtar and AB gave hits after hits and pushed him to Everest peak. His deep throat voice was rejected by AIR test, but same voice kept everybody astonished.

AB was and is a magnet and god for Indian fans. During his height of career the legend was definitely flying in air, but god taught him few lessons and now definitely his feet are firmly attached to gravel. His endless achievement, experience, lesson learnt, interaction with people would probably generate huge information bank. Now AB is very down to earth and humble legend , if you hear him talking, you would feel his simple formula of living. Though now his health is not up to date, he still starts his day in a studio, listening to young directors/dialogue writers with patience.

I still watch his movies, as of now his experiment with various roles passed him with
flying colours. Recently Bhoonath was a brilliant movie where he worked with small kid with ease. Knowing his plus and minus, has kept him immovable to acting skills. He tried everything in his life but finally came to conclusion acting is his skill set . His meekness is reflected in TV show KBC, where dealing with common people, displayed his excellent skills, cause there is a thin line between fame and courtesy. His bungalow is like a temple, as you can see huge crowd of fans doing all kind of nuisance at his gate to attract attention.


Big b’s blog site http://bigb.bigadda.com/ is definitely giving a open view to his day to day activities, his art of writing has depth of modesty and attracts lot of hits. I read his few blogs about his daily shooting, experience with Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Allah bad, PM Prakash Mehra and accident. In an interview/blog he had given the details about the accident during shooting of movie Coolie. He had almost reached the doors of heaven, but due to intense efforts of doctors he could see his beautiful daughter-in-law. But heavy drugs had left him with terrible side effects and has to carry a team of doctors to every shooting venue.


His love towards parents is open to everybody. Both being close to him he is really missing them during heart moving moments. In fact he had kept his ailing mother in hospital and gave her the best treatment, I think very few mother’s get such luxury, of course he should have kept her at his home during the last stage, but his commitment had kept him away from mother.

He is still the King, nobody has replaced him or close to him, probably a AB Oscar award would be a great respect to him. This Star will never fade from sky. His comments, like he is still learning acting will keep this legend alive forever. May god bless his sweet family and Jayaji’s steady company.
