Amitabh Bachchan was born on October 11,
1942 in Allahabad, India. In 1969, he debuted in Saat Hindustani. His role in
1972's Zanjeer made him an action movie star. In the 1980s, Bachchan held a
seat in the Indian Parliament. In the '90s, he started his own production
company. He returned to acting in 1997, with Mrityudaata. In 2000, he began
hosting the Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?.
Early
and personal life
See also: Bachchan familyBachchan was born in
Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, in north central India. His father, Harivansh Rai
Bachchan, was a Hindi poet, and his mother, Teji Bachchan, was a Sikh from Faisalabad
(now in Pakistan).] Bachchan was initially named Inquilaab, inspired from the
phrase made famous during the Indian independence struggle, Inquilab Zindabad,
which means "long live revolution". However, at the suggestion of
fellow poet Sumitranandan Pant, Harivansh Rai changed the name to Amitabh which
means, "the light that will never die." Though his surname was Shrivastava,
his father had adopted the pen-name Bachchan (meaning "child-like" in
colloquial Hindi), under which he published all his works. It is with this last
name that Amitabh debuted in films, and, for all public purposes, it has become
the surname of all members of his family. Bachchan's father died in 2003 and
his mother in 2007.] Rise to stardom: 1973–1983Director Prakash Mehra cast him
in the leading role for the film Zanjeer (1973) as Inspector Vijay Khanna. The
film was a sharp contrast to the romantically themed films that had generally
preceded it and established Amitabh in a new persona—the "angry young
man" of Bollywood cinema.] Filmfare considers this one of the most iconic
performances of Bollywood history.The film was a huge success and one of the
highest grossing films of that year, breaking Bachchan's dry spell at the box
office and making him a star.From then onwards, Bachchan became one of the most
successful leading men of the film industry. He earned his first Filmfare
nomination for Best Actor for Zanjeer. The year 1973 was also when he married
Jaya, and around this time they appeared in several films together; not only in
Zanjeer but in films such as Abhimaan which followed and was released only a
month after their marriage and was also successful at the box office. Later,
Bachchan played the role of Vikram, once again along with Rajesh Khanna, in the
film Namak Haraam, a social drama directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee and scripted
by Biresh Chatterjee addressing themes of friendship. His supporting role won
him his second Filmfare Best Supporting Actor Award.
Bachchan starred in comedies such as Chupke
Chupke (1975) and Amar Akbar Anthony (1977) and in films such as Kabhie Kabhie
(1976). In 1976, he was once again cast by director Yash Chopra in his second
film, Kabhi Kabhie, a romantic tale in which Bachchan starred as a young poet
named Amit Malhotra who falls deeply in love with a beautiful young girl named
Pooja played by actress Raakhee. The film was notable for portraying Bachchan
as a romantic hero, a far cry from his "angry young man" roles like
Zanjeer and Deewar. The film evoked a favourable response from critics and
audiences alike. Bachchan was again nominated for the Filmfare Best Actor Award
for his role in the film. In 1977, he won his first Filmfare Best Actor Award
for his performance in Amar Akbar Anthony where he played the third lead
opposite Vinod Khanna and Rishi Kapoor as Anthony Gonsalves. The film was the
highest grossing film of that year. His other successes that year include Parvarish,
Khoon Pasina and Adalat. He once again resumed double roles in films such as
Kasme Vaade as Amit and Shankar and Don playing the characters of Don, a leader
of an underworld gang and his look alike Vijay. His performance won him his
second Filmfare Best Actor Award. He also gave towering performances in Trishul
and Muqaddar Ka Sikandar both of which earned him further Filmfare Best Actor
nominations.
In 1979, Bachchan starred in Suhaag which
was the highest earning film of that year. In the same year he also enjoyed
critical acclaim and commercial success with films like Mr. Natwarlal, Kaala
Patthar and "The Great Gambler". Amitabh was required to use his
singing voice for the first time in a song from the film Mr. Natwarlal in which
he starred alongside Rekha. His performance in the film saw him nominated for
both the Filmfare Best Actor Award and the Filmfare Best Male Playback Awards.
In 1979, he also received Best Actor nomination for Kaala Patthar (1979) and
then went on to be nominated again in 1980 for the Raj Khosla directed film Dostana,
in which he starred opposite Shatrughan Sinha and Zeenat Aman. Dostana proved
to be the top grossing film of 1980. In 1981, he starred in Yash Chopra's
melodrama film Silsila, where he starred alongside his wife Jaya and Rekha.
Other films of this period like Shaan (1980), Shakti (1982) which pitted him
against actor Dilip Kumar were not successful at the box office but Ram Balram
and Lawaris were successful
1982
injury while filming Coolie
On 26 July 1982, while filming Coolie in
the University Campus in Bangalore, Bachchan suffered a near fatal intestinal
injury during the filming of a fight scene with co-actor Puneet Issar. Bachchan
was performing his own stunts in the film and one scene required him to fall
onto a table and then on the ground. However as he jumped towards the table,
the corner of the table struck his abdomen, resulting in a splenic rupture from
which he lost a significant amount of blood. He required an emergency splenectomy
and remained critically ill in hospital for many months, at times close to
death. The public response included prayers in temples and offers to sacrifice
limbs to save him, while later, there were long queues of well-wishing fans
outside the hospital where he was recuperating.
Nevertheless, he spent many months
recovering and resumed filming later that year after a long period of
recuperation. The film was released in 1983, and partly due to the huge
publicity of Bachchan's accident, the film was a box office success and the top
grossing film that year.
Later, he was diagnosed with Myasthenia
gravis. His illness made him feel weak both mentally and physically and he
decided to quit films and venture into politics. At this time he became
pessimistic, expressing concern with how a new film would be received and
stated before every release, "Yeh film to flop hogi!" ("This
film will flop").
Politics:
1984–87
In 1984, Bachchan took a break from acting
and briefly entered politics in support of long-time family friend, Rajiv
Gandhi. He contested Allahabad's seat of 8th Lok Sabha against H. N. Bahuguna,
former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh and won by one of the highest victory
margins in general election history (68.2% of the vote). His political career,
however, was short-lived: he resigned after three years, calling politics a cesspool.
The resignation followed the implication of Bachchan and his brother in the
"Bofors scandal" by a newspaper, which he vowed to take to court.
Bachchan was eventually found not guilty of involvement in the ordeal.
His old friend, Amar Singh, helped him
during a financial crisis due to the failure of his company ABCL. Therefore
Bachchan started to support Amar Singh's political party, the Samajwadi party.
Jaya Bachchan joined the Samajwadi Party and became a Rajya Sabha member.
Bachchan has continued to do favors for the Samajwadi party, including advertisements
and political campaigns. These activities have recently gotten him into trouble
again in the Indian courts for false claims after a previous incident of
submission of legal papers by him, stating that he is a farmer.
A 15-year press ban against Bachchan was
imposed during his peak acting years by Stardust and some of the other film
magazines. In his own defense, Bachchan claimed to have banned the press from
entering his sets until late 1989.
Slump
and retirement: 1988–1992
In 1988, Bachchan returned to films,
playing the title role in Shahenshah, which was a box office success. After the
success of his comeback film however, his star power began to wane as all of
his subsequent films failed at the box office. The 1991 hit film, Hum, for
which he won his third Filmfare Best Actor Award, looked like it might reverse
this trend, but the momentum was short-lived as his string of box office
failures continued. Notably, despite the lack of hits, it was during this
period that Bachchan won his first National Film Award for Best Actor, for his
performance as a Mafia don in the 1990 film Agneepath. These years would be the
last he would be seen on screen for some time. After the release of Khuda Gawah
in 1992, Bachchan went into semi-retirement for five years. With the exception
of the delayed release of Insaniyat (1994) which was also a box office failure,
he did not appear in any new releases for five years.
Producer and acting comeback 1996–99
Bachchan turned producer during his
temporary retirement period, setting up Amitabh Bachchan Corporation, Ltd.
(A.B.C.L.) in 1996, with the vision of becoming a 10 billion rupees (approx 250
million $US) premier entertainment company by the year 2000. ABCL's strategy
was to introduce products and services covering the entire section of the
India's entertainment industry. Its operations were mainstream commercial film
production and distribution, audio cassettes and video discs, production and
marketing of television software, celebrity and event management. Soon after
the company was launched in 1996, the first film produced by the company was Tere
Mere Sapne, which failed to do well at the box office but launched the careers
of actors such as Arshad Warsi and South films star Simran. ABCL produced a few
other films, none of which did well.
In 1997, Bachchan attempted to make his
acting comeback with the film Mrityudata, produced by ABCL. Though Mrityudaata
attempted to reprise Bachchan's earlier success as an action hero, the film was
a failure both financially and critically. ABCL was the main sponsor of the 1996
Miss World beauty pageant, Bangalore but lost millions. The fiasco and the
consequent legal battles surrounding ABCL and various entities after the event,
coupled with the fact that ABCL was reported to have overpaid most of its top
level managers, eventually led to its financial and operational collapse in
1997. The company went into administration and was later declared a failed
company by Indian Industries board. The Bombay high court, in April 1999, restrained
Bachchan from selling off his Bombay bungalow 'Prateeksha' and two flats till
the pending loan recovery cases of Canara Bank were disposed of. Bachchan had,
however, pleaded that he had mortgaged his bungalow to raise funds for his
company.
Bachchan attempted to revive his acting
career and had average success with Bade Miyan Chote Miyan (1998), and received
positive reviews for Sooryavansham (1999) but other films such as Lal Baadshah
(1999) and Hindustan Ki Kasam (1999) were box office failures.
Amitabh has a younger brother, Ajitabh. His
mother had a keen interest in theatre and had been offered a role in a film,
but preferred her domestic duties. She had some degree of influence in
Bachchan's choice of career because she always insisted that he should take the
centre stage.]
Bachchan is married to actress Jaya Bhaduri.
The couple have two children, Shweta Nanda and Abhishek Bachchan. Abhishek is
also an actor and is married to actress Aishwarya Rai.
Rise
to stardom: 1973–1983
Director Prakash Mehra cast him in the
leading role for the film Zanjeer (1973) as Inspector Vijay Khanna. The film
was a sharp contrast to the romantically themed films that had generally

Zanjeer but in films such as Abhimaan which followed and was released only a

Bachchan played the role of Vikram, once again along with Rajesh Khanna, in the
film Namak Haraam, a social drama directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee and scripted
by Biresh Chatterjee addressing themes of friendship. His supporting role won
him his second Filmfare Best Supporting Actor Award.
In 1974, Bachchan made several guest
appearances in films such as Kunwara Baap and Dost, before playing a supporting
role in Roti Kapda Aur Makaan. The film, directed and written by Manoj Kumar,
addressed themes of honesty in the face of oppression and financial and
emotional hardship and was the top earning film of 1974. Bachchan then played
the leading role in film Majboor, released on 6 December 1974, which was a
remake of the Hollywood film Zig Zag. The film was a success at the box office.
Two of his other releases that year viz. Kasauti and Benaam also made money
making his success at the box office consistent. In 1975, he starred in a
variety of film genres from the comedy Chupke Chupke, the crime drama Faraar to
the romantic drama Mili. 1975 was the year when he appeared in two films which
are regarded as important in Hindi cinematic history. He starred in the Yash
Chopra directed film Deewaar, opposite Shashi Kapoor, Nirupa Roy, and Neetu
Singh, which earned him a Filmfare Nomination for Best Actor. The film became a
major hit at the box office in 1975, ranking in at number 4. Indiatimes Movies
ranks Deewaar amongst the Top 25 Must See Bollywood Films. Released on 15
August 1975 was Sholay, which became the highest grossing film of 1975 and also
of all time in India, earning INR 2,36,45,00,000 equivalent to US$ 60 million,
after adjusting for inflation. Bachchan played the role of Jaidev. In 1999, BBC
India declared it the "Film of the Millennium" and like Deewar, has
been cited by Indiatimes movies as amongst the Top 25 Must See Bollywood Films.
In that same year, the judges of the 50th annual Filmfare Awards awarded it
with the special distinction award called Filmfare Best Film of 50 Years.
Bachchan starred in comedies such as Chupke
Chupke (1975) and Amar Akbar Anthony (1977) and in films such as Kabhie Kabhie
(1976). In 1976, he was once again cast by director Yash Chopra in his second
film, Kabhi Kabhie, a romantic tale in which Bachchan starred as a young poet
named Amit Malhotra who falls deeply in love with a beautiful young girl named
Pooja played by actress Raakhee. The film was notable for portraying Bachchan

second Filmfare Best Actor Award. He also gave towering performances in Trishul

recuperation. The film was released in 1983, and partly due to the huge
publicity of Bachchan's accident, the film was a box office success and the top
grossing film that year.
The director, Manmohan Desai, altered the
ending of Coolie after Bachchan's accident. Bachchan's character was originally
intended to have been killed off but after the change of script, the character
lived in the end. It would have been inappropriate, said Desai, for the man who
had just fended off death in real life to be killed on screen. Also, in the
released film the footage of the fight scene is frozen at the critical moment,
and a caption appears onscreen marking this as the instant of the actor's
injury and the ensuing publicity of the accident.
Later, he was diagnosed with Myasthenia
gravis. His illness made him feel weak both mentally and physically and he
decided to quit films and venture into politics. At this time he became
pessimistic, expressing concern with how a new film would be received and
stated before every release, "Yeh film to flop hogi!" ("This

flats till the pending loan recovery cases of Canara Bank were disposed of.
Bachchan had, however, pleaded that he had mortgaged his bungalow to raise
funds for his company.
Bachchan attempted to revive his acting
career and had average success with Bade Miyan Chote Miyan (1998), and received
positive reviews for Sooryavansham (1999) but other films such as Lal Baadshah
(1999) and Hindustan Ki Kasam (1999) were box office failures.

Return
to prominence: 2000–present
Bachchan at the IIFA Awards in 2006
In 2000, Amitabh Bachchan appeared in Yash
Chopra's box-office hit, Mohabbatein, directed by Aditya Chopra. He played a
stern, older figure that rivalled the character of Shahrukh Khan. His role won
him his third Filmfare Best Supporting Actor Award. Other hits followed, with
Bachchan appearing as an older family patriarch in Ek Rishtaa: The Bond of Love
(2001), Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham... (2001) and Baghban (2003). As an actor, he
continued to perform in a range of characters, receiving critical praise for
his performances in Aks (2001), Aankhen (2002), Khakee (2004) and Dev (2004).
One project that did particularly well for Bachchan was Sanjay Leela Bhansali's
Black (2005). The film starred Bachchan as an aging teacher of a deaf-blind
girl and followed their relationship. His performance was unanimously praised
by critics and audiences and won him his second National Film Award for Best
Actor and fourth Filmfare Best Actor Award. Taking advantage of this
resurgence, Amitabh began endorsing a variety of products and services,
appearing in many television and billboard advertisements. In 2005 and 2006, he
starred with his son Abhishek in the hit films Bunty Aur Babli (2005), the Godfather
tribute Sarkar (2005), and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006). All of them were
successful at the box office. His later releases in 2006 and early 2007 were Baabul
(2006), Ekalavya and Nishabd (2007), which failed to do well at the box office
but his performances in each of them were praised by critics.
In May 2007, two of his films Cheeni Kum
and the multi-starrer Shootout at Lokhandwala were released. Shootout at
Lokhandwala did very well at the box office and was declared a hit in India,
while Cheeni Kum picked up after a slow start and only had average success. A
remake of his biggest hit, Sholay (1975), entitled Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag,
released in August of that same year and proved to be a major commercial
failure in addition to its poor critical reception. The year also marked
Bachchan's first appearance in an English-language film, Rituparno Ghosh's The
Last Lear. The film premiered at the 2007 Toronto International Film Festival
on 9 September 2007. He received positive reviews from critics who hailed his
performance as his best ever since Black. Bachchan was slated to play a
supporting role in his first international film, Shantaram, directed by Mira
Nair and starring Hollywood actor Johnny Depp in the lead. The film was due to
begin filming in February 2008 but due to the writer's strike, was pushed to
September 2008. The film is currently "shelved" indefinitely. Vivek
Sharma's Bhoothnath, in which he plays the title role as a ghost, was released
on 9 May 2008. Sarkar Raj, the sequel of the 2005 film Sarkar, released in June
2008 and received a positive response at the box-office. Paa, which released at
the end of 2009 was a highly anticipated project as it saw him playing his own
son Abhishek's Progeria-affected 13-year-old son, and it opened to favourable
reviews, particularly towards Bachchan's performance. It won him his third National
Film Award for Best Actor and fifth Filmfare Best Actor Award. In 2010, he
debuted in Malayalam film through Kandahar, directed by Major Ravi and
co-starring Mohanlal. The film was based on the hijacking incident of the Indian
Airlines Flight 814. Bachchan did not receive any remuneration for this film.
In 2013 he made his Hollywood debut in The Great Gatsby playing the role of Meyer
Wolfsheim opposite Leonardo Dicaprio and Tobey Maguire.
Television
career
Amitabh Bachchan at KBC-5 Press Meet.
In 2000, Bachchan hosted the first season
of Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC), the Indian adaptation of the British television
game show, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. The show was well received. A second
season followed in 2005 but its run was cut short by STAR Plus when Bachchan
fell ill in 2006.
In 2009, Bachchan hosted the third season
of the reality show Bigg Boss.
In 2010, Bachchan hosted the fourth season
of KBC. The fifth season started on 15 August 2011 and ended on 17 November
2011. The show became a massive hit with audiences and broke many TRP Records.
CNN IBN awarded Indian Of The Year- Entertainment to Team KBC and Bachchan. The
Show also grabbed all the major Awards for its category.
The sixth season was also hosted by
Bachchan, commencing on 7 September 2012, broadcast on Sony TV and received the
highest number of viewers thus far.
Voice
Bachchan is known for his deep, baritone
voice. He has been a narrator, a playback singer, and presenter for numerous
programmes. Renowned film director Satyajit Ray was so impressed with
Bachchan's voice that he decided to use Bachchan as the narrator in his 1977 Shatranj
Ke Khilari (The Chess Players). In 2005, Bachchan lent his voice to the
Oscar-winning French documentary March of the Penguins, directed by Luc Jacquet.
Satyagraha opens well at the box office
Hindustantimes.com
New Delhi, August 31, 2013
Prakash Jha's political thriller starring Amitabh
Bachchan, Kareena Kapoor, Ajay Devgn, Manoj Bajpai, Amrita Rao has collected
approx Rs. 11 cr on its first day. The collections are showing upward trend
thanks to the positive word of mouth, according to trade website Koimoi.com.
"The film
above average occupancy on its opening day
at the Domestic Box Office. The film’s screen count was approx 2400-2500 and
made a business of around 11 crores on 1st Friday i.e. Day 1 at the India Box
Office," reported the trade website.
The film's opening day collection is
apparently the highest for a Prakash Jha film. "Satyagraha grew
steadfastly and robustly in evening/night shows. Collects Rs. 11.21 cr on
Friday. Prakash Jha's biggest opener thus far," wrote Trade analyst Taran
Adarsh on Twitter.
The
movie picked up towards the evening.
"Satyagraha’s box office performance
remained stable in the morning and afternoon shows. However, it showed massive
pickup in the evening and night shows resulting a good Day 1 collections.
The movie will surely pick up today and tomorrow, as the word of mouth
publicity is strong and growing stronger!" Said Koimoi.
ABOUT
SATYAGRAHA
A group of unusual patriots turns revolutionaries when they decide to take on
the system (government). Taking things into their hands, they lead an uprising
that slowly gains momentum.
CRITICS'
TAKE
Anupama Chopra's review: Satyagraha
The film tries to say so much that it ends up saying very little. Which is a
shame because Satyagraha has flashes of power — in a nicely done scene, an
enraged Daduji slaps the corrupt collector. Jha pushes our patriotic buttons
with a remix of Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram. He also gives us a peek into the
politics of Satyagraha and how even the good guys take wrong calls. Critics'
review: watch Satyagraha for performances
Although the director claimed that his movie is not based on the Anna Hazare
movement, most reports suggested otherwise. With a topic like that, Prakash Jha
helming the project and actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Ajay Devgn and Manoj
Bajpai - the expectations were sky-high. Prakash Jha, however, could not live
up to the expectations, at least for most critics.
Awards,
honours and recognitions

nominations received by Amitabh Bachchan
Apart from National Film Awards, Filmfare
Awards and other competitive awards which Bachchan won for his performances

Bollywood’s biggest superstar, Mr.
Amitabh Bachchan donated Rs. 2.5 million to Plan India towards the cause of the

son Abhishek and daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai — all dressed in white —
were also present. The family would raise funds for Plan India’s ‘Because I am

organized by Mr. Bachchan’s family on his 70th birthday on October
11, 2012, which coincided with the first ever International Day of the Girl
Child, and also through proceeds from sale of a book from Big B’s (as he is
popularly called) 70th birthday celebrations.
