- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,October 13 2021]
Megastar Amitabh Bachchan and screenwriter Saleem Khan are one of the best writer-actor combo as they have collaborated on around a dozen hit films. Recently, on the ocassion of Mr Bachchan's 79th birthday, Saleem Khan stated that the megastar should retire from film industry now. He reasoned that since most of our early and middle life spends in learning stuff and fulfilling responsibilities so a person should live a few years just for themselves.
Saleem said, Amitabh Bachchan should retire now. He has achieved all that he had to in this life. One should keep a few years of life for oneself as well. Amitabh Bachchan has played a brilliant innings professionally. He has done good work so he must free himself from the race. He must take a graceful retirement.”
Saleem further added that Big B is an actor of different breed and these days, there's lack of scripts which can utilise him well. He said, Amitabh Bachchan was the hero who could play an angry young man, he still is. However, there are no stories for an actor like Amitabh now. Our films have improved technically, the music and action have improved but we do not have good scripts.”
Amitabh Bachchan and Saleem Khan teamed up together to give classics like Sholay, Deewar, Majboor, Don, Trishul, Kaala Paththar and Dostana.
