On Tuesday, Actor Amitabh Bachchan, along with his co-stars Rashmika Mandanna, Neena Gupta, and Sunil Grover, launched the trailer of his upcoming film Goodbye in Mumbai. “First of all, I want to say goodbye to Covid-19,” the actor said.
He joined the trailer launch through a video call. He explained how the doctors after he was diagnosed with Covid-19 for the second time recently, have put restrictions on his public appearances. During the trailer launch event, the actor talked about his back-to-back film releases.
Big B was last seen in the movie Runway 34, which also starred Ajay Devgn. The actor will also be seen in Brahmastra, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, which releases this week. Amitabh Bachchan has been a part of the film industry for the last 50 years.
He said, “It is not a new thing. In our time, four films would release in a month, and every Friday we would have a new film. Also, due to Covid-19 and the lockdown for two years, there was a lot of delay because of this a lot of films are now coming together. I hope people will watch this film and love it. I hope people get a chance to watch it in theatres and on OTT too.”
Talking about the film Goodbye, Bachchan called Goodbye a great work opportunity that he luckily got. He said, “I just think I got one more job. At my age, we hardly get a job and whenever we get one, I feel very fortunate.”
Big B is soon going to turn 80. Talking about the new work opportunities, he said,
“The opportunity to work in so many films is the highest form of satisfaction. Other than that, all actors would agree, that one should never be satisfied, because then you lose out on the happiness of learning new things. All these actors standing here are great and every day I have worked with them, I’ve learned something.”
“You’ll be seeing many of these actors for the first time, but all of them are ace actors, very talented. Looking at today’s generation of actors, I feel amazed at how good their work is and how in the first films they do so well, in their initial years they’ve already done so well. It took me fifty years to be where I am and I’m still learning. And then these beautiful young actors come and do great work in their first film itself and I get to learn from them,” – Bachchan added.
