Amitabh Bacchan
Amitabh Bacchan
He is the most celebrated and a truly legendary actor of the Hindi cinema. Ever since his debut appearance in 1969 in the movie Saat Hindustani, he has made significant contributions to the Hindi cinema. And even though he went into a short retirement in 1992, his immense fan following made him to come back to the Bollywood mainstream.
Some of his earlier works didn’t turn out well at the box office, but within two years of entering into Bollywood, he made his first mark with his much acclaimed role as a doctor in the movie Anand. From then on it was a series of brilliant performances delivered by him in movies such as Bawarchi, Zanjeer, Abhimaan, Namak Haraam, Deewar, Sholay, Amar Akbar Anthony, Silsila, Lawaaris, Coolie, Hum, Shahenshah, Agneepath, Mohabbatein, Baghban, Sarkar, Baabul and Nishabd, that is just to name a few.
His tall stature, his baritone voice and his distinctive demeanor has made him the most cherished of Bollywood actors. Amitabh Bacchan has enjoyed colossal fan following, for his excellent works, not just in the Indian subcontinent but all across the globe. His incredibly stalwart performances have earned him titles like ‘angry young man’, ‘shehenshah’ and ‘Big B’, from the media and his fans.
Apart from having made major contributions to the Hindi cinema, for the last few years he has been making his mark on the small box, acting as the host in the popular TV show Kaun Banega Karorpati. And we wish him all the best for his soon to come, reality show Big Boss Season-3.
