According to last year’s figures, Bachchan’s addiction is 54.2 million
Amitabh Bachchan will be more present on our screens than any other star in 2022. He is everywhere like TV, movies, social media and advertisements. If it is noticed that four of Akshay Kumar’s movies hit the theaters at the age of 55, then Amitabh Bachchan above that. Four films have been released this year. The latest film is ‘Unjai’ directed by Suraj Barjatya. Bachchan chose films in different genres this year. If ‘Jhand’ was a biographical sports film, ‘Brahmastra’ was a legendary science fiction film and ‘Goodbye’ was an emotional story. ‘Runway 34’ was a thriller where he played the head of the AAIB (Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau). Bachchanera’s biggest feature is that he can easily blend into any character. He can effortlessly transform into any character from the estranged father in Piku, the ruthless lawyer in Badla, the pitiful in Gulabo Sitabo.
‘Brahmastra’ is the only Bollywood film that has done well in 2022. But Bachchan has been very popular in all the films in which he has acted. Bachchan happily accepted even the small parts written for him. Bachchan’s next film ‘Unjai’ directed by Suraj Barjatya tells the story of four friends’ healing journey to conquer Mount Everest. Bachchan was the narrator in Radhe Shyam starring Prabhas and Pooja Hegde. The next film that will keep Bachchan busy is Project K with Prabhas and Deepika Padukone.
Bachchan, who is also making his presence known on the small screen, is also the host of ‘Kon Banega Crorepati’. For the last fourteen seasons, the standard of the show presented by Bachchan has gone down. Bachchan has also done commercials for many brands like RBI, Parker Pens, Gujarat Tourism, Navaratna Oil, Just Dial, Emami, Kalyan Jewellers. Bachchan ranked sixth in the 2021 Duff & Phelps Celebrity Brand Valuation Report with a net worth of $54.2 million.
Bachchan always works hard to give his best. This drive seems to increase with age. Bachchan becomes a role model for all of them, while many who entered cinema with him find it difficult to survive in their careers.
