August 14, 2024 – Oh, Bollywood, you never fail to surprise me! The drama, the comebacks, the ironies! Today, dear Bollywood buffs, we’re diving into the fascinating tale of none other than the Big B himself – Amitabh Bachchan. Hold onto your popcorn, kyunki yeh story hai full paisa vasool!
Amitabh Bachchan’s Agneepath: Pehle Flop, Ab Cult Classic!
So, let’s rewind to 1990. Picture this: Amitabh Bachchan, the Angry Young Man of the ’70s, facing a major career nosedive in the ’80s. Enter Agneepath, a revenge saga that hit the screens but flopped harder than my New Year resolutions. Despite the initial failure, it bagged him a National Award. Fast forward to today, and it’s a cult classic! They even remade it in 2012 with Hrithik Roshan – kyunki asli heroes ko kabhi retire nahi hota!
RGV’s Tweet: Irony, Thy Name is Bollywood!
Enter Ram Gopal Varma, the man who never shies away from stirring the pot. On Wednesday, he shared an old magazine cover from 1990 that screamed "FINISHED!" across Amitabh’s picture. Oh, the irony! https://www.instagram.com/reel/(correct_identifier)/
RGV’s caption? “34 years back ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY magazine STATED this on its COVER and now ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY is FINISHED and @SrBachchan is SOARING (biceps and laughing-with-tears emojis).” Matlab, Kya baat hai! The internet was shooketh! One X user cheekily noted, “Positive tweet from Ram Gopal Varma. It should be a rare phenomenon.” Well, jab RGV appreciates someone, you know the world is spinning differently!
Amitabh’s Phoenix-Like Rise
Our dear Big B didn’t let a little thing like being called "finished" slow him down. The ’90s were a rough patch, with a string of flops making him Bollywood’s underdog. But then came the 2000s, and Amitabh roared back into the limelight with Kaun Banega Crorepati and Mohabbatein. Since then, he’s been unstoppable. His latest flick, Kalki 2898 AD, raked in a whopping ₹1,000 crore at the box office. And he’s not done yet! Next up: Section 84 and Vettaiyan. Kya energy hai, yaar!
Kiran’s Gyan:
In Bollywood, baby, one flop doesn’t mean you’re finished. It means you’re just getting started! So next time someone tells you you’re done, just remember Amitabh Bachchan – the man who turned "finished" into "fabulous"!
