80th birthday of Amitabh Bachchan: Karan Johar writes a heartwarming note; calls him “a feeling that defines cinema memories”
The director writes: “AMITABH BACHCHAN is not just an institution, a legend, a Masterclass in acting … he is a feeling! A feeling that takes us back to the first time we whistled and clapped at a superstar submission, applauded for a punchline, danced in the islands of a movie theater.”
He continued, adding: “A feeling that has trained our minds on what a HERO in the cinema is and always should be… A feeling that defines cinema memories forever….
I feel blessed to have my name as a director in his sizable and stunning filmography… blessed to have grown up before him and even felt the blow of his stardom at the age of 5 when he walked into a room.
The conclusion of his post reads: “There will be artists and megastars and celluloid masters in Indian cinema, but there will never be another AMITABH BACHCHAN….Happy Birthday Amit Uncle…this decade will be like any other be yours.’ The multiple photo post contains a few portraits of the mafia boss actor while a few show him with Karan.
Not only Johar, but all of India is celebrating Shahenshah’s 80th birthday. To mark the occasion, the Film Heritage Foundation announced a four-day film festival. At the film festival, Bachchan Back To The Beginning presented 11 Big B films in 22 theaters across India.
