Amitabh Bachchan, the legendary seventy one year old actor who has worked for over four decades, regrets his decision taken earlier in the 1990s. He feels that staying away from his passion- cinema was his biggest mistake.

He is reported to have expressed his regret, “I thought on those lines few years ago in 90s which was a big mistake. I shouldn’t have done that. Now I want to continue.” The seasoned actor has more than enough on his plate and has the zeal of a twenty year old man.

Being a super star, having tasted success several times and having worked relentlessly on all his projects says he still gets jittery before any new release of his.

Amitabh Bachchan said in an interview  “We are always anxious about every product we do. It is like an examination for us, a test and we are anxious to know whether the work we have done is appreciated by the audience or not.” Senior Bachchan is currently in Australia attending the IIFM Indian Film Festival of Melbourne where he was honoured with the International Screen Icon Award.

After his recent released Bhootnath Returns, Bachchan has new assignments back to back including three films with R Balki, Shoojit Sircar and Vidhu Vinod Chopra. He is also working on a television serial. In August we will see him in the iconic Kaun Banega Crorepati.

Amitabh also presented a PhD scholarship under his name Shri Amitabh Bachchan Scholarship to an Indian student. This was given by Melbourne based La Trobe University.

Recently Amitabh Bachchan along with Gulshan Grover recently unveiled the first look of their film Leader. Leader focuses on the journey of an honest man who becomes a leader for his family and people as he fights against evil forces working in the society.

The film, which also stars Jaya Bachchan, Dinesh Lal and Pakhi Hegde in the lead, is written and directed by Abhishek Chadha and is produced by Deepak Sawant, who has been Mr. Bachchan’s personal make-up artist since more than two decades.

A Grand Salute to you Mr. Bachchan!!
