NOT BACHCHAN BUT BACHPAN....

Amitabh Bachchan 80. Mammootty 71.
Both of them are a wonder to us.... in two ways.
While one tries to defeat his age with unyielding youth, the other shines in his old age with its own glitter.
How beautiful is Amitabh Bachchan's old age...!
The other day, a man named Moses Safir shared a photo on his Twitter account.
It was a picture of Amitabh Bachchan with his co-stars on the sets of the 1969 film *Saath Hindustani*, Amitabh Bachchan's first movie.
Saath Hindustani was a 1969 film directed by Khwaja Ahmed Abbas.
The film also features Malayalam's favorite actor Madhu.
Sharing a photo from the film, Moses Safir said that Amitabh Bachchan is standing with his co-stars Madan, Jalal Agha, Utpal Dutt and Anwar Ali.
Moses has wrongly said Madan instead of Madhu in that post.
"It's Madhu from Kerala..." Amitabh Bachchan tweeted, correcting Moses Safir's mistake.
Its amazing that even 53 years after the release of the film, he still remembers the names of each and every actor who worked with him.
We use the word "obsolete" in every field.. To remain contemporary in one's life space is a miracle and a blessing..
Amitabh Bachchan is such a wonder! Updating oneself with changing tastes is a tedious process. That's where Indian cinema's Big B is a great role model...
An acting talent that we never get tired of till now.. Be it in movies, on stage, in TV shows... it is nothing but a spiritual destiny to be someone people look up to in amazement.
A man who did not fully conform to the Indian traditional ideals of a hero, a man who was sacked by Aakashvani saying his voice was not good enough. And now he shines at the pinnacle of Indian cinema as a truly irreplaceable Shahansha.
On this occasion, we must remember that Ganagandharvan Yesudas was also rejected by Akashavani.
Indian cinema finally brought these two voices together.. Hearing our Dasettan sing for Mr. Bachchan in the film " Aalaap ", the minds of North India held that voice close to heart.
Even music companies wrote in the advertisement text.. "The most suitable voice for Amitabh Bachchan ".
"Koee gatha mein so jatha..."
Amitabh Bachchan's favorite song sung by Yesudas, written by his poet father Harivansh Rai Bachchan.
Even after half a century, when you listen to it broadcast on air.... Time remains a witness.
I still remember Sholay movie breaking all the collections/records in Vallamkulam Janata Talkies.
Knowing that Sholay had become a storm in the theaters of North India, the owners of Janata Talkies (grandsons of Mr. K.V. Kosi, the producer of Jeevitha Nauka) had brought the film to the C class theatre Janata before its release in Changanaseri and Thiruvalla.
A time when a whole village eagerly watched the intense bond, love and struggle of 'Jai' and 'Veeru' still dwindle in our eyes.
The name Amitabh means "boundless splendour".
How accurate is the name that the great father found for his own son!
