Amitabh Bachchan is an Indian Film & Television Actor, Producer, Playback Singer and Former Politician. He is regarded as one of the influential and greatest actors in the history of Indian cinema. During the 1970s–1980s, he was the most dominant actor in the Indian movie scene; the French director François Truffaut called him a “one-man industry”. Beyond the Indian subcontinent, he acquired a large overseas following in markets including Africa, the Middle East, the United Kingdom, Russia, Caribbean, Oceania and parts of the United States.
