Amitabh Bachchan Shows Who's Boss In BBUDDAH First Look Trailer

A new Amitabh Bachchan action film? Now THIS is exciting!

Amitabh Bachchan has been one of Bollywood's top stars for the last 40 years, and he built his early career on roles as an angry young man in films like Sholay, Don, Coolie, Deewar, Zanjeer, and many more.  In these films Amitabh, or Big B as I will refer to him for the rest of this entry, played a badass who didn't give a FUCK and got shit done. 

Obviously as he's aged, quite gracefully I might add, he's had to pull back from that role in films and he has made a respectable career of playing patriarchal characters in a large number of hugely successful films, sometimes paired with current Bollywood kingpin, Shah Rukh Khan, and several times with his own son, Abhishek Bachchan.  In many of these films he's played respectable Indian men, but once in a while, like in Ram Gopal Varma's Sarkar films, he gets to play someone nasty, but typically the action element of these films has been left to the younger men.  Not anymore.

As usual, there isn't much plot revealed at this point, but it seems that it is a romantic comedy about a man with a quick temper.  Frankly, I don't much care.  The trailer looks like a lot of fun.  Big B is kickin' asses and takin' names, there are some fun looking musical numbers, and he co-stars with the beautiful Hema Malini, which is never a bad thing.  I think the trailer speaks for itself in this case, and I can't wait to see some more footage!

Bbuddah - Hoga Tera Baap is scheduled to release on July 1st, but these dates are always flexible when it comes to Indian films.
