The B-Day: Amitabh turns 67...


It's not any more an exaggeration to say that Amitabh Bachchan has become part of Hindi vocabulary; the 'word' stands for Endurance and Unmatched Charisma!

It was on February 15, 1969, that "a tall, lean guy with intense eyes" walked the stairs of KA Abbas's office to sign his first movie, 'Saath Hindustani'.

"Forty years! Been a while. Struggles and uncertainties, successes and disappointments, accusations and controversies, ill health and months in hospital, all such a vivid kaleidoscope of moments, events, images simply unbelievable and unimaginable," blogs Amitabh. How true! Amitabh Bachchan's life has had the quality of being, at once, a biography and a fairytale!

Here are a few snaps and rare facts from the glorious career of the megastar who, at 67, still remains the tallest peak in Bollywood!

The fact that Mr. Bachchan has got lakhs of fans and admirers doesn't make him anything more than 'popular'. A man who is nothing but a piece of meat when it comes to acting. A man who has seldom tried anything different in acting. A man who got two undeserved national awards (Its better not to say anything about the second one). A man who committed business fraud (OMG!).

If you think he's the tallest peak in Bollywood, then I pity Bollywood.
