Big B Gets Emotional on KBC ..?
A resurdata-faced video from the show has recently gone viral, drawing attention to the rare and deeply personal bond between the superstar and a member of his core team.
50 Years of Unbroken Professional Loyalty
Amitabh Bachchan revealed that deepak Sawant has been working with him continuously for 50 years, a milestone few professional relationships achieve in the film industry.
During this period, Bachchan has worked in over 200 films, and according to him, there was not a single day when deepak was absent from duty.
He emphasised that no matter the circumstances—illness, exhaustion, or personal difficulties—his make-up artiste always arrived on time and fully prepared.
Dedication Beyond Personal Tragedy
In an emotional moment, Bachchan shared that just three days earlier, deepak Sawant had lost his brother.
Despite this profound personal loss, deepak still reported to work, without being asked or pressured to do so.
Bachchan described this act as a true example of integrity, discipline, and commitment, values he deeply respects.
Why the Moment Resonated with Fans
Viewers were moved not just by Deepak’s loyalty, but by Bachchan’s humility in publicly acknowledging a behind-the-scenes professional.
The moment highlighted how long-term collaboration and mutual respect form the backbone of sustained success in cinema.
Amitabh Bachchan’s Enduring Legacy
Bachchan rose to stardom with Zanjeer, which cemented his “angry young man” image.
His iconic films include Sholay, Deewaar, Don, and Trishul.
After setbacks in the late 1980s and 1990s, he made a powerful comeback with films like Mohabbatein, Black, Paa, and Pink.
Today, he remains one of India’s most respected cultural figures, continuing to inspire audiences both on-screen and off-screen.
