Amitabh Bachchan Birthday: 5 Onscreen Looks Of The Actor That Are As Iconic As Him
What also became as iconic as Amitabh Bachchan's movies were his avatars. On his birthday today, let's check out five of them.
Amitabh Bachchan, the megastar of Indian cinema, celebrates his birthday today. He is one actor who has fans across several generations. He has been part of this industry for over 40 years and counting. And yet he never disappoints. In the 70s, when he was peaking and then became a superstar, many assumed post the commercial era, he might not have much to offer on screen. After a really bad time in life, Bachchan took a rebirth as an actor. He completely changed the dynamics of the profession by picking up movies that bolstered people's faith in his talent a lot more than it did in the 70s. He picked character roles and delivered them so well, today he is perhaps the only 70 yeard actor in Hindi cinema who has characters written for him.

What also became as iconic as Amitabh Bachchan's movies were his avatars. From Deewar to Sholay, his looks went vogue. Today on his birthday we will talk about these avatars that are as legendary as the man himself.
All that glitters is Bachchan
This is one costume every kid in those days might have envied and also, tried to recreate.
Andheri raaton ka Shehenshah
It's funny how much we have seen people requesting Bachchan to say the iconic dialogue and also saw many wearing this costume for mimicry purposes

This song is just the best and so is Bachchan in Amar Akbar Anthony
Billa no. 786 and Maa
Everything about Deewar is sensational and so is this getup of AB. The actor recounted once that it was an outfit that was put together to hide a flaw. Today, it's iconic.
Sholay wala Amitabh
Bell bottom and that jacket over a t-shirt... It's as simple as that and yet nothing denotes classic AB as this Jai outfit!
There are other avatars of Amitabh Bachchan that are equally memorable but these will always be our favourite.
