Biography of Amitabh Bachchan released in London
An unauthorised biography of Amitabh Bachchan was released in the British capital by the English author who described the Bollywood superstar as the “uber-god” of Indian cinema.
Jessica Hines also read excerpts from her 287-page book titled “Looking For The Big B” last night to a packed gathering at ‘Sitaaray’, an Indian restaurant quite aptly adorned with posters and photographs of Bollywood cine stars.
The book takes a fascinating peek at the Mumbai film industry and also tells the story of a very unlikely friendship between Jessica and the ‘Superstar of the Millennium’.
“He is India’s most legendary film star - a cross between Clint Eastwood, Al Pacino, Elvis, and with more than a hint of John Travolta,” Jessica wrote in the book, her maiden venture.
“In a country like India where film stars are treated as gods, Amitabh Bachchan is the uber-god, the Big B.” Bachchan sent a congratulatory message to the author on the occasion.
