#49YearsofAmitabhBachchan is what has taken the Twitter world with a storm with Twitterati in complete awe of Amitabh Bachchan, as he celebrates his 49 years in the industry today.

He is considered as star of the millennium, who started his journey 49 years back with Saat Hindustani, and is probably the biggest star of Bollywood as once French director Francois Truffaut hailed him as one-man industry.

Today (February 15) marks Big B’s 49 years in the industry and in a journey close to five decades, the actor has won numerous accolades, recognition and honours.

In all these years, Bachchan had his own fair share of ups and downs but never ever he gave up on his passion and continued to inspire so many others that also makes him one of the most respected figures of Bollywood.

The megastar is known for his film credits like Sholay, Trishul, Shraabi, Kabhie Kabhie, Deewar, Hum, Agneepath, Black, Paa, Piku and Pink.

His fans idolise him and consider him a living legend and have taken over Twitter with a storm in admiration for the actor’s 49th year in the industry.

See how the Twitterati are celebrating their favourite actor’s special day;
