The Young Man I Admire!

.
I heard this song in the afternoon.  Such a melodious song by Shiv-Hari.  Amitabh is reciting some verse in the beginning.  Such a powerful voice.



Music: Shiv-Hari (Sivkumar Sharma & Hariprasad Chaurasia) Lyrics: Javed Akhtar. Movie: Silsila (1981). Actors: Amitabh Bachchan & Rekha.

I watched Amitabh starrer 'Wazir', a 2016 movie, 2 days back. Amitabh is around 74 years old now.  Still his enthusiasm is in tact! And voice too!

Amitabh is singing in the II half of the song!



Music: Rochak Kohli, Lyrics: Deepak Romola, Gurpreet Saini. Actors: Amitabh Bachchan, Farhan Akhtar.

We were discussing about Amitabh Bachchan while hearing the Silsila song and were admiring him as to how he is still so active in life.  So, this post!

It is a wonder how AB is still active even at 74. But I recently saw an active 84-year old man who looks and acts no more than 65! I guess it's all in the mind and how well we maintain our physique.

I too admire Amitabh for his attitude to keep acting, despite his age, and the most important is he chose to do character roles that too challenging ones, rather doing only hero oriented unlike Tamil top stars.

Of all the Amitabh movies, I liked Piku..!
He is fabulous in it and yes, I too love his voice.
:D

He used to be my fav while younger. Now he is older, so am I and he is still my favorite :)

Sandhya said...

JEEVAN: Yes, he doesn't mind looking old...in some movies he is made to look older than he is in person. He just wants to do good character roles and acts sincerely!


MANOGNA: Yes, Piku was best! He is sincere. More than his old movies, his new ones are superb.


SHAIL MOHAN: Yes, He will always be!
