Line 3: Amitabh Bachchan is an Indian film actor. Also called [[Fan Nickname\|Big B and Shahenshah]]. He first gained popularity in the early 1970s as the [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold\|"angry young man"]] of Bollywood cinema, and has since become one of the most prominent figures in the history of Indian cinema. Perhaps the Indian equivalent of [[Sean Connery]] (notable for their distinctive beards and voices) and [[Morgan Freeman]] (both Morgan and Big B played [[God]]). Bachchan has won numerous major awards in his career, including ~~three~~four National Film Awards and ~~twelve~~fifteen Filmfare Awards. He holds the record for most number of Best Actor nominations at the Filmfare Awards. In addition to acting, Bachchan has worked as a playback singer, film producer and television presenter, and was an elected member of the Indian Parliament from 1984 to 1987. Bachchan is married to actress Jaya Bhaduri. They have two children, Shweta Nanda and [[Abhishek Bachchan]]. Abhishek is also an actor and is married to actress [[Aishwarya Rai]]. He's also the host of ''Kaun Banega Crorepati'', the Indian version of ''[[Who Wants Toto Be Aa Millionaire?]]'' Though Amitabh hasn't really made ~~any~~many notable appearances in Western film, Westerners might recognize him from clips of his movies used in ''[[Slumdog Millionaire]]'', in which protagonist Jamal is ecstatic over getting his autograph; more recently, he appeared as Meyer Wolfsheimin in the Baz Luhrmann adaptation of ''[[The Great Gatsby]]''. There's been at least one internet poll declaring him the most well-known actor in the world. Ultimately the most [[Badass]] and [[Cool Old Guy\|coolest veteran Bollywood actor around]]. ~~----~~ {{Filmography\|Notorious films}} ~~=== Notable filmography: ===~~ * ''Anand'' * ''Zanjeer'' * ''Namak Haraam'' * ''Mili'' Line 31 ⟶ 32: * ''[[Bunty Aur Babli]]'' * ''Black'' * ''Paa'' * ''Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna'' * ''Bbuddha...
