Amitabh Bachchan, 82, Stuns Fans with His Own Stunts in Kalki 2898 AD BTS Video – Watch

Lights, camera, action! Bollywood’s very own Mr. Evergreen, Amitabh Bachchan, is back to remind us that age is just a number. Let’s dive into the latest buzz from B-town, shall we?

Guess who’s stealing the spotlight again? None other than the towering legend himself, Amitabh Bachchan. This time, he’s got everyone talking with his jaw-dropping performance as Ashwatthama in Nag Ashwin’s sci-fi spectacle, Kalki 2898 AD. Premiering on June 27, social media has been ablaze with praise for Big B, who’s proving that even at 82, he can give young guns like Prabhas and Deepika Padukone a run for their money. 🌟

But don’t take my word for it. A behind-the-scenes video has surfaced and it’s nothing short of epic. Imagine an octogenarian executing stunts with the finesse of a seasoned action hero. Oh wait, you don’t have to imagine—just check out the BTS clip. It shows Bachchan meticulously practicing his fight scenes off-camera and then nailing it with perfection once the director yells, "Action!"

One fan gushed, “His energy and dedication at 82 are absolutely inspiring.” Another chimed in, “Wow Amitab sir doing fights at 82 age too good!” And let’s not forget the ultimate compliment: “An 82-year-old man carrying a 600 cr movie on his shoulders. What a show. @SrBachchan take a bow, sir. From Hindi Movie News Banerjee to Ashvathama. Mr Bachchan is a acting school in himself.”

Now, let’s sprinkle some director Nag Ashwin’s appreciation into this mix. He gave a shout-out to the stunt team, saying, “It was good to see the team taking care of an actor like Mr Bachchan, without trying to strain him too much.” He added, “This (team) worked best according to their body language and their capabilities. How they should not compromise on the scene at all and still keep safety and comfort level a priority.”

Hold up, did we mention Big B’s injury? Yeah, turns out our action hero isn’t immune to the perils of stunt work. Last year, he revealed a muscle tear in his right rib cage while shooting for Project K in Hyderabad. He shared, “In Hyderabad at the shoot for Project K, during an action shot, I have got injured… rib cartilage popped broke and muscle tear to the right rib cage… cancelled shoot… did Doctor consult and scan by CT at the AIG Hospital in Hyderabad and flown back home… strapping has been done and rest been advocated… yes painful… on movement and breathing… will take some weeks they say before some normalisation will occur… some medication is on also for pain (sic).”

Oh, and did I mention Kalki 2898 AD is already breaking box office records? Yep, this film is off to a flying start, raking in one of the highest opening-day collections. 📈

Nisha’s Nutshell:
Bollywood’s ageless wonder, Amitabh Bachchan, is not just performing stunts at 82; he’s setting the bar sky-high. The moral of the story? Age is just a number when you’ve got the spirit of a true superstar. And if the legend can carry a 600-crore film on his shoulders, maybe it’s time we reconsider our fitness goals. 🥋💪
