Amitabh Bachchan

[bollywoodirect]

On this day, October 11, the world celebrates the birthday of a man who needs no introduction – #AmitabhBachchan. Born as Amitabh Shrivastav in 1942, he’s more than just a Bollywood legend; he’s a force that has shaped Indian cinema for over five decades.

Hailing from Allahabad (now Prayagraj), the son of the celebrated poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan and social activist Teji Bachchan, Amitabh’s journey was destined for greatness. After studying in Sherwood College, Nainital, and Kirori Mal College in Delhi, he began his career in 1969 with a voiceover in Bhuvan Shome. Little did anyone know that this voice would soon become one of the most iconic in Indian cinema.

By the 1970s, with films like Anand, Zanjeer, and Sholay, he became the face of the "angry young man" of India. From there, the list of legendary movies only grew—Amar Akbar Anthony, Don, Shakti—each performance cementing his title as the "Shahenshah of Bollywood." His cinematic reign in the ‘70s and ‘80s was so commanding that French filmmaker François Truffaut once referred to him as a "one-man industry."

But Amitabh’s story isn’t one of easy triumphs. After a brief break in the 1990s, he made a stellar comeback in the 2000s with roles in Mohabbatein, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, and Piku, for which he won his record fourth National Film Award for Best Actor. His international appeal also soared with appearances in films like The Great Gatsby (2013).

His list of accolades is as long as his filmography—four National Film Awards, sixteen Filmfare Awards, and the prestigious Dadasaheb Phalke Award. The Indian government has honored him with the Padma Shri, Padma Bhushan, and Padma Vibhushan. Even France bestowed upon him its highest civilian award, the Knight of the Legion of Honour.

Not just an actor, Amitabh has dabbled in politics, produced films, sung playback, and hosted numerous seasons of Kaun Banega Crorepati, India’s beloved quiz show. His impact goes far beyond Indian shores, with fans across Africa, the Middle East, and the UK. In 1999, a BBC poll named him the "greatest star of stage or screen," and TIME magazine dubbed him the "Star of the Millennium."

As we wish the Shahenshah a very happy birthday today, let’s take a moment to reflect on his incredible journey. What are your favorite Amitabh Bachchan movies?

Famous Cricketers and Bollywood Actors Following Astrology or Numerology and Wearing Stones

Astrology and numerology have long fascinated people across the world, particularly in India, where many famous personalities—especially in the realms of cricket and Bollywood—follow these ancient practices. From career decisions to personal lives, many cricketers and Bollywood stars believe that astrology and numerology can bring them success, balance, and protection. One of the more tangible aspects of this belief is the wearing of gemstones, each of which is said to align with certain planets and energies.

Astrology and numerology are deeply intertwined with Indian culture. These practices offer guidance on everything from love and marriage to career growth and health. Many celebrities follow specific astrological charts or lucky numbers, which guide their decision-making. Additionally, gemstones—like emeralds, rubies, and blue sapphires—are worn for their perceived ability to attract positive energies and protect against misfortune.

Let’s take a closer look at some cricketers and Bollywood actors who attribute part of their success to astrology, numerology, and wearing stones.

Famous Cricketers Following Astrology and Wearing Stones

Cricketers are known for their discipline and strategy on the field, but many of them also turn to astrology and numerology for added success. Here are some prominent cricketers who believe in these ancient sciences.

Sachin Tendulkar and His Sapphire Stone

The “Master Blaster” of Indian cricket, Sachin Tendulkar, has been seen wearing a blue sapphire on his right hand. Blue sapphire is associated with the planet Saturn, which is believed to bring discipline, focus, and hard work to those who wear it. Sachin has been known for his calm demeanor and strong willpower, qualities that align well with Saturn’s influence. Many speculate that his rise to becoming one of the greatest cricketers of all time is in part due to his belief in astrology.

MS Dhoni and His Jade Bracelet

Former Indian cricket team captain MS Dhoni is another example of a cricketer who believes in the power of stones. Dhoni has been seen wearing a jade bracelet, which is believed to bring harmony, balance, and luck. Jade is known for its ability to protect against negative energies and attract positive forces. Dhoni’s calmness under pressure, especially during high-stakes matches like the 2011 World Cup final, is often attributed to this stone.

Virat Kohli and His Fascination with Numerology

While Virat Kohli doesn’t overtly talk about his reliance on astrology or numerology, it is well-known that Kohli is deeply influenced by numbers. Numerologists believe that Kohli’s birth number, 5, plays a significant role in his life. This number, ruled by Mercury, represents communication and intelligence—both traits that Kohli exhibits on and off the field. Though he may not wear gemstones as frequently as others, numerology is believed to guide many aspects of his life, including his aggressive playing style and leadership skills.

Bollywood Stars Who Follow Astrology, Numerology, and Wear Gemstones

Just like cricketers, Bollywood actors also rely on astrology and numerology to help shape their careers. In an industry where luck and timing are everything, many stars take guidance from their horoscopes and wear specific stones to harness positive energy.

Amitabh Bachchan and His Blue Sapphire

Amitabh Bachchan, one of the most revered actors in Bollywood, has openly discussed his belief in astrology and gemstones. After facing a series of financial struggles in the early 2000s, Bachchan began wearing a blue sapphire (Neelam) ring, which is associated with the planet Saturn. It is said that this stone helped turn his fortunes around. Soon after, he landed the role of the host of Kaun Banega Crorepati, which redefined his career and brought him massive success. Bachchan credits the blue sapphire for restoring his fame and wealth.

Salman Khan and His Feroza Bracelet

Salman Khan is often seen sporting a silver bracelet with a turquoise stone (Feroza). The actor has been wearing this bracelet for decades, and it has become almost synonymous with his personality. Turquoise is believed to protect against evil and negativity, while also enhancing the wearer’s creativity and communication skills. Given Salman’s long-standing career and massive fan base, many believe that his bracelet plays a part in his continued success.

Shah Rukh Khan and the Power of Numbers

Shah Rukh Khan, known as the “King of Bollywood,” has also consulted numerologists for guidance throughout his career. Shah Rukh is believed to be influenced by the number 555, which appears frequently in his life—whether it’s in his phone numbers, car plates, or even the release dates of his films. He credits his belief in lucky numbers with helping him make decisions that have led to blockbuster movies and an enduring career in Bollywood.

Kareena Kapoor Khan and Her Emerald Ring

Kareena Kapoor Khan, one of the most iconic actresses in Bollywood, has been seen wearing an emerald ring on several occasions. Emeralds are known for their association with Mercury, the planet of communication, intellect, and quick thinking. Kareena’s sharp wit and strong screen presence could be attributed to the influence of this stone, which is said to enhance creativity and bring prosperity to those who wear it.

The Science Behind Wearing Gemstones

The belief in astrology and numerology goes hand-in-hand with the wearing of gemstones, which are thought to absorb and amplify the energies of specific planets. Each stone is said to correspond to a different planet and its associated traits. For example:

• Blue Sapphire: Associated with Saturn; promotes discipline, focus, and hard work.

• Emerald: Ruled by Mercury; enhances communication, creativity, and intellect.

• Turquoise: Linked to Venus; provides protection against negativity and promotes peace.

• Ruby: Corresponds to the Sun; boosts confidence, leadership, and vitality.

• Yellow Sapphire: Related to Jupiter; attracts wealth, wisdom, and good fortune.

The choice of stone is often based on the individual’s astrological chart, which identifies which planets are most influential in their lives. Gemstones are believed to balance out the negative effects of certain planets while enhancing the positive traits of others.

Why Do Celebrities Turn to Astrology and Numerology?

It’s not surprising that so many cricketers and Bollywood actors turn to astrology, numerology, and gemstones. These fields offer guidance in industries that are notoriously unpredictable. Cricket and Bollywood are high-pressure environments where one’s career can rise or fall with a single performance, making it natural for individuals to seek out every advantage possible. Whether it’s the perceived power of gemstones or the guidance offered by numerology, these practices provide a sense of control and security in a world where success is often fleeting.

FAQs

Do gemstones really influence success and fortune?

Many people believe that gemstones have metaphysical properties that can influence their lives. While there is no scientific proof of this, those who wear stones often feel more confident and in control of their destinies.

Why do Bollywood actors wear specific stones?

Bollywood actors wear specific stones based on their astrological charts. These stones are believed to harness the power of planets and attract positive energy into their lives.

How does numerology work for cricketers and actors?

Numerology is the study of numbers and their mystical significance. Many cricketers and actors consult numerologists to find lucky numbers that guide important decisions, such as movie release dates or jersey numbers.

Which cricketer is known for wearing a gemstone?

Sachin Tendulkar is known for wearing a blue sapphire, which is associated with Saturn. It is believed that this stone has contributed to his success and calm demeanor.

Do gemstones work instantly?

No, gemstones are believed to work over time by aligning the energies of the wearer with the associated planet. Those who believe in gemstones often wear them consistently for years.

Can anyone wear a gemstone, or does it have to be astrologically prescribed?

While anyone can wear gemstones, astrologers often recommend specific stones based on an individual’s astrological chart to maximize their potential benefits.

Conclusion

In the unpredictable worlds of cricket and Bollywood, it’s no wonder that so many famous personalities turn to astrology, numerology, and gemstones for guidance and protection. Whether or not one believes in the power of these practices, their impact on the lives of cricketers and actors is undeniable. From Sachin Tendulkar’s sapphire ring to Salman Khan’s turquoise bracelet, these talismans serve as both a spiritual guide and a symbol of hope for continued success.

A Legendary Show

Before I compose my article,let us pray for Sir Ratan Tata who left us two days back and has left a big vacuum to be filled. A great Social Philanthropist as he was and will always be a Hero for our Country.

I have personally seen some reality shows but Kaun banega Crorepati abbreviated as KBC has always been my most favourite show. It was inspired by a UK show "Who wants to be a Millionaire?". The show was started in the year 2000 and at present has completed 16 seasons and is still viewed with the same charm. Such is a beauty of this show.

KBC had gone through lot of changes in almost many things or say many ways be it changes in format or be it changes in life lines also or be it their change in some rules or regulations but never did the show lost its beauty or its magic. Even today it is being viewed with same grace and enthusiasm.

Let us analyze further that what makes KBC the most valued show:

The Amazing Host

If we talk about KBC and not mention the show's legendary Host Shri Amitabh Bachchan sir, it would totally be unfair. From the very start till now Amitji has been the most succesful host of the show. infact I recollect that when Amitji had left the show for a year and Shahrukh Khan had taken the lead in place of Amitji the show had some dip in popularity and TRP ratings of the show had dropped somehow.It was quite evident that no other person can host this show better than Amitji. Well praises for Amitji is a long list and unending.

Format

Inspite of having gone some modifications of any sort, the format of the show was still simple and entertaining. The game starts with a fastest finger first and the winner who gets the answer in least time taken is selected for the game and has to face the host on a Hot Seat and answer questions based on General Knowledge. It is quite simple and nice. If you have knowledge you can win big prizes. Basically its all about knowledge and has nothing to do with anything else.

Everything is Knowledge

From watching this show KBC, even after so many years I noted that anything can be counted as Knowledge. Be it a TV Show or even a smallest thing like a dish and what ingredient goes in making the dish is a question which is added in the show. Nowadays many things that are new or unique are taken into consideration.

Something for Viewers

Earlier when this show was considerably new we would take pride sitting in front of TVS and guess the right answers showed on screen sometimes even before the chosen contestant It was an achievement. Lately or recently KBC had taken an initiative that those who are watching KBC show can Play Along and win prizes or can also make it to the hot seat and play in front of so many people.If the answer was right we would win and if it was wrong we would gain knowledge. In the current season and last year's season there was something for Audience also I mean the ones who are sitting in the game show. Partnering with Hyundai KBC launched "Desh ka Sawaal" which meant that any person from any part of India can ask a question to audience and they can win prizes after giving the right answer.

New Challenges

Previous point dealt with Viewers or say audience now this point deals with the playing contestant. In recent epsidoes there are challenges for playing contestants are also there. This year saw a remarkable change in pattern with the introduction of Super sawaal which means after the hurdle of 5th question for 10,000 Rupees the contestant has to play this super sawaal in which there is a question but no options are given only for that one question. if the answer is right contestants playing are granted with "Dugnastraa" which means from 6th question till 10th question which is second hurdle of amount 3,20,000 they can activate the dugnastraa and win a bonus if answer is right. Along with that if the contestant wins 3,20,000 in 10th question they are faced with "Super Sandook" which means 10 questions will come in 90 seconds and contestants have to answer them fast and if the win 50,000 or above they have an option to deposit money in their account or activate a life line which if they have used.

I guess these are some major reasons for which Kaun Banega Crorepati is going so famous. I hope that such reality shows continue to happen and it will increase our general knowledge and i also hope that in future it is hosted by none other than our Dearest superstar "Amitabh bachchanji"
