Amitabh
Bachchan
is
celebrating
his
77th
birthday
today
(October
11).
Recently,
the
actor
received
the
Dadasaheb
Phalke
award
for
outstanding
contribution
to
the
growth
and
development
of
Indian
cinema.
Here's
what
TV
actors
have
to
say
about
him.
Zuber
K
Khan:
Firstly,
as
an
outsider,
he
has
made
his
name
in
this
industry
all
by
himself,
which
is
a
great
thing.
Initially,
his
films
weren't
successful,
but
he
kept
on
going.
He
had
to
go
through
many
ups
and
downs
though
he
never
lost
the
hope,
and
today
as
we
all
know,
he
is
one
of
the
biggest
stars
in
the
industry.
I
look
up
to
him
for
everything
he
has
done
in
life.
He
is
one
of
the
biggest
inspirations.
His
voice,
diction
and
his
presentation
are
the
greatest
takeaways.
Deewar
and
Amar
Akbar
Anthony
are
my
most
favourite
films
of
his.
Wisdom
almost
always
comes
along
with
ageing,
and
I
can
see
that
is
true
for
Amitabh
Ji,
enjoy
your
day
sir,
Happy
birthday
to
you.
Ankit
Bathla:
I
remember
reading
his
article
when
he
was
doing
'Black'.
He
would
be
the
first
to
be
found
on
the
sets
and
would
sit,
adorned
with
the
hot
coat,
woollen
cap
and
muffler
throughout
the
day
to
get
into
the
skin
of
the
character.
I
have
learnt
punctuality
from
the
veteran
actor
and
also
to
spend
the
maximum
time
on
the
sets
rather
than
the
vanity
room.
Ayyaz
Ahmed:
The
greatest
takeaway
is
that
there
is
no
age
to
learn,
you
can
keep
learning
all
your
life.
I
don't
have
one
favourite
film
of
his,
there
are
many
films
of
his
that
I
like,
so
I
cannot
choose
one.
Wishing
Amitabh
Ji
good
wishes
on
the
occasion
of
his
birthday.
Vijayendra
Kumeria:
Amitabh
Bachchan
is
not
just
an
actor,
for
me,
he
is
an
institution.
You
can
learn
so
much
from
him.
His
acting
skills,
his
conduct,
his
discipline,
his
hard
work
even
at
this
age
is
so
inspiring.
He
is
without
any
doubt
the
best
actor
we
have.
It's
difficult
to
pick
one
of
his
films
from
the
body
of
work
he
has,
but
if
I
have
to
pick
one,
it
would
be
'Black'.
May
God
bless
him
with
great
health
and
energy
always.
Ansh
Bagri:
I
am
a
very
big
fan
of
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
if
I
have
chosen
this
career,
it's
all
because
of
him.
He
is
a
bible
for
all
aspiring
actors.
You
just
need
to
go
through
his
filmography,
from
where
he
started
and
where
he
has
reached
today.
He
has
seen
failures,
but
he
never
gave
up.
Initially,
13
films
of
his
were
flops.
After
that,
he
got
a
hit
movie
and
became
a
superstar.
In
the
'90s
again,
his
career
graph
was
going
low,
but
he
never
gave
up.
So,
as
an
actor,
he
teaches
us
so
many
things.
Shivin
Narang:
As
an
actor
and
as
an
Indian
citizen,
I
am
very
proud
that
Mr
Bachchan
is
born
in
our
country
and
has
done
fabulous
work.
He
is
the
best
I
have
ever
seen.
He
is
a
true
hero,
all
the
qualities
which
an
actor
should
have,
he
has
them.
I
guess,
he
is
one
of
the
best
actors
in
Bollywood
as
well
as
Hollywood,
no
one
can
match
his
charm.
Rehaan
Roy:
Mr
Amitabh
Bachchan
is
not
just
an
actor,
he
is
an
institution
of
acting.
As
an
actor,
you
can
learn
a
lot
by
just
watching
his
films.
I
have
been
a
big
fan
of
him
since
childhood
and
as
he
completes
50
glorious
years
in
Bollywood,
I
would
love
to
congratulate
him
and
wish
him
good
health
and
prosperity.
Shashank
Vyas:
Amitabh
Bachchan
is
the
best
actor
that
we
have
had
in
the
industry.
There
has
been
no
one
better
than
him,
and
now
there
is
no
one
better
than
him
too.
It
is
so
amazing
to
work
for
50
years
in
the
industry.
I
want
to
congratulate
him
with
all
my
heart
and
love.
Ssharad
Malhotra:
Big
B
has
always
been
a
big
inspiration
to
me.
I
am
sure
that
he
has
been
to
all
of
us.
Even
if
you
are
not
an
actor,
I
am
sure
his
life
story
and
journey
are
inspiring.
Amal
Sehrawat:
More
than
as
an
actor,
I
am
in
awe
of
Bachchan
saab's
passionate
persona
and
never-giving-up
spirit.
The
way
he
bounced
back
after
the
ABCL
debacle
is
truly
inspirational.
And,
I
have
learned
one
thing
from
his
life
journey,
that
never
be
ashamed
to
ask
for
work
and
never
treat
any
work
as
big
or
small.
Respect
work
and
do
everything
with
all
your
heart.
One
of
my
fondest
childhood
memories
are
the
films
Mr
Natawarlal
and
Satte
Pe
Satta.
I
would
love
to
wish
him
personally,
but
for
now,
I
will
pray
for
his
health
and
may
his
spirit
never
fade
away.
Amit
Sarin:
Amitabh
Bachchan
is
one
of
the
greatest
actors.
For
me,
he
is
an
institution
in
himself.
A
phenomenon
who
I
can
easily
say
is
the
past,
present
and
future
of
our
film
and
TV
industry.
He
is
the
reason
for
me
to
be
an
actor
and
I
know
for
sure
I'm
not
alone
to
admit
that.
I
can
say
it
with
a
guarantee
that
no
one
else,
other
than
him,
has
seen
super
stardom
three
times
in
his
lifetime.
The
first
time
was,
before
his
life-threatening
accident
in
Coolie,
then
after
his
comeback
with
films
like
Hum,
Agneepath,
Khuda
Gawah
and
the
list
goes
on.
Then,
the
third
time
with
KBC,
it
revolutionised
TV.
I
can
go
on
and
still
can't
get
over
the
climax
scene
from
Khuda
Gawah,
of
him
meeting
Sridevi.
I
must
have
seen
that
scene
1000
times
and
I
have
decided
to
give
a
tribute
to
his
character
Badshaa
Khan.
I'm
coming
out
with
a
new
restaurant
in
my
hotel
by
the
name
BADSHAA.
I
think
it
will
be
one
of
a
kind
of
place,
dedicated
to
him
and
one
of
my
favourite
characters
played
by
him.
I
planned
to
launch
it
on
his
birthday,
but
there
was
a
little
delay
in
its
launch.
Nishant
Malkani:
He's
my
idol
and
I
worship
him.
Zanjeer,
Agneepath,
Coolie
are
just
some
of
his
masterpieces.
I
hope,
I
can
learn
more
from
him
every
day.
His
talent,
discipline,
dedication
and
positive
zeal
are
just
so
motivating.
He's
had
many
falls
in
his
career,
but
he
has
always
come
back
stronger
than
before.
He
deserves
all
the
awards
and
accolades.
He's
an
international
superstar
and
I
can't
imagine
the
Indian
film
industry
without
the
Shehenshah
himself.
Shridhar
Watsar:
Firstly,
I
want
to
wish
Amit
Ji,
a
very
happy
birthday;
and
secondly,
congratulations
to
you
sir
for
the
Dadasaheb
Phalke
award.
I
know
there
are
many
more
to
come.
I
wish
that
you
surprise
us
every
year
with
something
new.
My
favourite
films
of
Amit
Ji
are
Don,
Deewar,
Baghban
and
Sarkaar.
I
am
inspired
by
Amit
Ji's
discipline,
dedication,
passion
and
the
magic
which
he
carries
during
his
performance.
Tum
jiyo
hazaro
saal
Amit
Ji,
Love
you.
