Roles that showcased Big-B's Versatility

With more than 170 movies under his belt, Amitabh Bachchan is considered one of the most versatile actors in Bollywood. In his career, he has played numerous roles to showcase his acting skills. Here are a few roles that prove the theory. 


1. Ajooba (1991)

A fantasy movie loosely based on Arabian Mythology with Amitabh in a double role starring as a masked legend and the sole protector of a country is bound to make the list. 



2. Black (2005)

One of the most challenging roles in today's era was handed to Amitabh, and boy did he pull it off like a pro! Amitabh delivered one of the most breathtaking roles in his silver-screen career and won the world all over again.




3. The Last Lear (2007)

The Last Lear is considered one of the finest works of Big-B. He played the role of a Shakespearean theater actor receiving more than a dozen international accolades and international appreciation. 



 

4. Paa (2009)

A one-of-a-kind movie from Big-B, with the best performance of his career. Amitabh is shown as a 12-year-old kid who suffers from Progeria, a rare disease that gives him the appearance of a 60-year-old. In a truly heart-rending movie, Amitabh was the perfect fit, even with his massive six feet figure!



5. Gulabo Sitabo (2020)

Amitabh Bachchan was unrecognizable, stingy, and old Mirza in Gulabo Sitabo. A completely unconventional role for the veteran that nobody expected. It was fresh, and entertaining and made fans witness the actor in another new avatar which was admirable.
