It happened because of Abhishek, says Big B

Superstar Amitabh Bachchan and his son Abhishek Bachchan make the idol father-son in the entire Bollywood industry. Amitabh who has recently bagged his fourth national award for his superb performance as Auro in the movie 'Paa' has now uttered few words of appreciation again for his son. The actor has said that all this has happened because of his loving son Abhishek Bachchan.


Amitabh Bachchan said that only Abhishek Bachchan and Balki (director of Paa) were able to convince Amitabh for this role. No doubt the father was affected more with the logics of his son and so he made up his mind finally to act in the movie Paa. Amitabh said that it was Abhishek’s well plotted job to make him act in that movie. The other movie of Amitabh for which he got his national awards include Agnipath and Black.

Amitabh Bachchan also said that he is not so much bothered about the awards as he now feels that his age helped him get the award. Since he is in 60s now so he has all the options to choose from a wide variety of versatile roles. The actor also added that he is grateful to those who created roles which were just tailor made for him. He also appreciated Abhishek BAchchan and said that it was he who anticipated Amitabh in that role of Auro.
