Forget a doodle, dairy giant Amul wished Amitabh Bachchan on Sunday on his 78th birthday with a collection of his doodles throughout the years. The video shows some important aspects of Big B’s career and life. From Big B’s wax statue at Madame Tussauds, to the release of Sholay in 3D, his movies like Bunty and Babli, and Big B recovering from the coronavirus.
Using ‘Ek Dusre Se, Karte Pyaar Hum’ (1991, film Hum) as the background song, the 1-minute video ends with “Aby toh mai jawaan hun” scrawl.
Megastar Amitabh Bachchan celebrated his 78th birthday on Sunday and thanked his supporters for their continued love, describing it as his “greatest gift.” Bachchan has been a force to be reckoned with in the Hindi film industry, starting as the angry young man of Indian cinema and adapting to the changing times and media in his career of more than five decades.
On his birthday, the actor took to Twitter and shared images of himself, bowing with folded hands in gratitude towards his fans. “Your generosity and love will be the best gift for me on the 11th. I can’t ask for more,” Bachchan tweeted.
“Many happy returns to the day, dear Amitji. Prayers and best wishes for a great year ahead, sir,” Devgn, who has worked with him on such films as “Satyagraha”, “Khakhee” and “Major Saab”he tweeted.
Bachchan was last seen on screen in “Gulabo Sitabo,” which marked his first digital release. His Shoojit Sircar directing co-star Ayushmann Khurrana said that Bachchan’s contribution to the industry has been immense. “When my childhood dream of working with you came true, I felt that my life was blessed. What you have done for the industry is incomparable. We will always be grateful to you,” Khurrana tweeted.
Receiving four national awards and nearly 15 Filmfare trophies, Bachchan completed five decades in Hindi cinema in 2019. Last year, he also received the Dadasaheb Phalke Award, the highest honor in Indian cinema, at a special ceremony at the Rashtrapati Bhavan. Having made his debut with “Saat Hindustani” directed by Khwaja Ahmad Abbas in 1969, the actor has made countless critically acclaimed performances in films, including “Zanjeer”, “Deewar”, “Sholay”, “Agneepath”, “Black”, “Paa” and “Piku”.
