Bollywood’s megastar Amitabh Bachchan has been selected for Dada Saheb Phalke award for the year 2018 for his contribution to the Indian film industry, and B-Town cannot keep calm.
It was exactly four decades ago that Big B began his Bollywood journey, and since then, there has been no looking back for this powerhouse of talent.
If he won hearts with his performance in Anand, he also introduced cinephiles to Angry Young Man.
From Zanjeer to Namak Haram to Abhimaan to Chupke Chupke, Big B proved his versatility with each of his films. And now at 76, he is been honoured with Dada Saheb Phalke award. And Bollywood stars are in awe of the “legend.”
Anil Kapoor, who shared screen space with Amitabh Bachchan in the 2003 film Armaan, congratulated the megastar on his big win.
He wrote, “There is no mention of Indian cinema without this Legend! He has redefined cinema with every role & deserves every accolade for his innumerable contributions! Congratulations @SrBachchan! #DadaSahebPhalkeAward”
