Hasti DoshiThe term ‘Angry Young Man’ is synonymous with Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan. It was a title he earned with the kind of roles he essayed. In an interview a few decades ago, the star had spoken about him being the flag-bearer of the title and how it was initiated.
According to Big B, the title is not about him, but about every individual with a rebel inside and you cannot miss what the star had to say. “In the minds and in the hearts of the youth of India there was some kind of suppressed anger, something that they desired and which was not being said and not coming out. And perhaps in these roles the way these were written and perhaps the way they were performed they found a hidden release for to say. There was a tremendous identification by the people, by the youth, with the characters that I was doing. And because of this identification, they became very popular,” said Bachchan.
