Amitabh Bachchan – The Return of the Angry Man
Promos of the rapidly getting popular Bbuddah-Hoga Terra Baap say it loud and clear; ‘He is back and he is angry’. The July release of Big B will have the superstar pick up from where he left in his earlier blockbusters like Zanjeer, Deewar, Muqaddar ka Sikandar, Shahenshah, Agneepath and Hum. The Prakash Jha movie Aarakshan that will release in August will also capture Big B in an angry, rebellious mode.
A veteran film maker says, “He is playing his age in Bbuddah…Hoga Terra Baap as well as Aarakshan. However, while the former is appearing to be an out and masala fare which is basically a trip down the memory lane for all Bachchan fans, the latter is expected to follow more realistic route as it is based on a socially relevant issue of reservation.”
One does not know much about the plot of Bbuddah…Hoga Terra Baap, but the only thing that is known that his character’s name is Vijay Deenanath Chauhan (his famous on-screen name in Agneepath). Big B’s role in Aarakshan’s is clearer, what with the actor playing the role of a college professor called Prabhakar Anand.
Prakash Jha, the director says, “Is Prabhakar Anand as angry as Vijay Deenanth Chauhan? It is difficult for me to say. All I can say is that as a college Principal, Mr. Bachchan has played his part perfectly well. There is a certain demand of this character who has worked very hard to bring his college to a position where it is. However, when there is an issue that looms large over him and his college, he doesn’t take it lying down. When Prabhakar Anand faces a challenge, he executes what he is supposed to do with a lot of dignity. He is someone who is quite firm; no one can take him for granted”
One thing is sure, Big B’s character in Aarakshan is more raw rather than flamboyant while it is vice versa in Bbuddah…Hoga Terra Baap.
