Happy Birthday Big B - The Angry Young Man we all fell in Love with
Scene: A gathering at a home. The heart has been revealed to friends, and the throat and eyes have been thoroughly moistened. This one friend turns on her big-screen tv and picks up the remote to play Dilbar Mere. My eyes brighten, my melancholy lifts, and my lips begin to mouth the lines. Sochoge jab mere baare mein tanhaiyon mein, ghir jaoge aur bhi meri parchhaiyon mein, my favourite line, follows, and then the head tilt! A 6 foot 3 inch man challenged me by looking right into my eyes and insisting that I would never be able to get him out of my thoughts. I was told that no amount of romance I encounter in life can ever compare to the enthralling sensation I experienced from looking into his eyes for that brief moment.
My coming-of-age was represented by amitabh Bachchan's portrayal of ravi in that Satte Pe Satta song. For the adolescent heart, when life is a rom-com, the first cut was going to stay for the rest of my life. I hadn't yet seen his rage and angst, just his eyes. They say the first cut is the deepest. The legendary amitabh bachchan, who turns 80 today, wasn't the leading man in the movies during my generation. I was raised surrounded by romantic Shah Rukh Khans. The SRKian Rahuls and Rajs had distinct types of love; they both loved and sacrificed their lives for it. Nevertheless, they adored the character Mr. Bachchan played on screen despite the pressures of society and the system.
I loved Vijay a little bit more when he closed the door behind him in the godown to literally and figuratively punch hafta wasooli and the oppression of the common man it represented in the data-face in Deewar. Much though Vijay sizzled in wrath stuck between right and wrong in Shakti, I loved him even more when he exclaimed, "tumne humein bebas kiya, dilne humein dhoka diya," and succumbed to love. I could feel Sikandar's pain in Muqaddar Ka Sikandar as he loved and loved but was never able to find the love he wanted. I wept. I cherished him more. The character Mr. Bachchan portrayed on screen grew increasingly irate and depressed, but it was his rage that gave him life.
It is unfortunate that amitabh Bachchan's Angry Young Man didn't achieve the same level of fame as the lasciviously swaying icons who came before him or the ones who welcomed you with open arms after them. Because he was the only one who had the strength, tenacity, and capacity to commit to love despite harbouring resentment in the abyss of his heart. to emote. greater depths
