      Amitabh Bachchan

      Follow Following
      -  Followers

      Amitabh Bachchan is one of the most iconic and influential actors in the history of Indian cinema. Born on October 11, 1942, in Allahabad (now Prayagraj), Uttar Pradesh, Bachchan gained immense popularity in the 1970s and became known as the "Angry Young Man" of Bollywood due to his roles in socially conscious and action-packed films. Over the course of his career, which spans more than five decades, he has starred in over 200 films and has earned numerous accolades for his work.

      Bachchan's breakthrough came with the film Zanjeer (1973), which established him as a leading actor. His other notable films include Sholay (1975), Deewaar (1975), Amar Akbar Anthony (1977), Don (1978), Kabhi Kabhie (1976), Silsila (1981), and Black (2005). His powerful performances and deep voice have made him a beloved figure across generations.

      In addition to his acting career, Amitabh Bachchan has ventured into television, hosting the popular Indian game show Kaun Banega Crorepati (the Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?). He has also served as a brand ambassador for various causes and products and has been active in philanthropy, supporting educational, health, and social initiatives.

      Bachchan's impact on Indian culture and cinema is unparalleled, and he continues to be a prominent figure in Bollywood. He has been honored with numerous awards, including the Padma Shri, Padma Bhushan, and Padma Vibhushan, India's highest civilian honors.

      In November 2023, BOOM investigated a viral video claiming that Amitabh Bachchan asked a contestant on Kaun Banega Crorepati a question regarding farm loan waivers during Kamal Nath's government.

      BOOM found that the video was edited, and no such question was asked during the contest. The viral clip was misleadingly altered to create a false narrative.
