The Super Stars Of Hindi Cinema
Amitabh Bachchan
Amitabh Bachchan
The original Angry Young man of Hindi Cinema.
From Zanjeer( Chains), this man redefined Hindi Cinema . With his brooding looks and a deep Baritone, he carried the masses. Whether it was Laawaris, Kaala Patthar,Trishul, Deewar,Amar Akabar Anthony and many more, his movies reflected the anger against the establishment. He was the avenger, the common man getting his pound of flesh from society.His dialogue in Deewar "mere pass gaadi hai, bungla hai, paisa hai",( I have cars, a bunglow and lots of money) was the high point of the film.
Not only was he adept at bashing up evil doers, but also his comic timing in comedy scenes was something to be watched..In older movies we had a comedian playing the role and his was a parallel track in the movie. Now there was this hero who was also a comedian and a good one at that.
At the present he is doing fewer movies due to age,even then they have turned out to be big Hits. Examples being Paa, Cheeni Kum and so on.He has aged gracefully and plays host on a TV Quiz show.
