Amitabh Bachchan shares his debut film experience: Wanted to take responsibility of parents on my shoulder

While hosting his reality show Kaun Banega Crorepati, Amitabh Bachchan was quizzed by a contestant playing the quiz based game.

During the conversation, he said to the actor, “Sir, can I ask you something? What did you feel when you signed your first film? I'd like to hear how your first experience was.”

Replying to him, the megastar said, “I thought of giving my earnings to my parents. And I found a means of earning to give to my parents. To make them stay with me. And the responsibilities that they've had towards us all life, I wanted to take that burden on my shoulder.”

Bachchan made his Hindi film debut in 1969 as a voice narrator in Mrinal Sen’s National Award-winning film Bhuvan Shome. However, his first acting debut was as one of the seven protagonists in the 1969 film Saat Hindustani, directed by Khwaja Ahmad Abbas, featuring Utpal Dutt, Anwar Ali, Madhu and Jalal Agha.

Bachchan will next be seen in Ganapath alongside Tiger Shroff and Kriti Sanon, The Umesh Chronicles with Irrfan Khan’s son Babil Khan, Kalki 2898 AD starring Deepika Padukone, Prabhas, and Butterfly.
