Amitabh Bachchan clearly impressed the masses when he stepped into the shoes of a rapper for his just-released film Badla’s song Aukaat. Other than being spellbound with the megastar’s performance in the film, fans can’t stop watching that song again and again. While Big B has already taken to the mic more than once in his Bollywood career and crooned heart-touching songs, this was the first time that he rapped and enticed the audience. The actor revealed that he was able to do it because he saw Ranveer Singh’s last film Gully Boy more than ten times.
In an interview recently, Amitabh Bachchan was talking about the popularity of young actors in these years when he revealed that he tried to emulate Ranveer Singh from Gully Boy but failed miserably. He said, “You are not pulling the audience in anymore. It's the younger stars, the younger generation, they are the more popular ones. I actually saw Gully Boy 10 times to be able to match or even come near Ranveer Singh. I met him last night and I told him, 'thank you so much, Ranveer. I've copied you and I tried to copy you and I failed miserably.”
Amitabh Bachchan looked amazingly cool and every bit of a rapper in the song Aukaat from the film Badla. Ever since the release of Ranveer Singha nd Alia Bhatt starrer Gully Boy, Big B is so impressed with everyone’s performance in the flick that he can’t stop praising the hard work. Days after the release of the film, Big B even showered his applaud to Ranveer, Alia and Siddhant Chaturvedi for their brilliant performance by sending them flowers and a hand-written note. The three actors were elated to receive heart-touching notes from the superstar and happily shared the pictures on the social media.
On the other hand, Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu starrer Badla had hit the right chord with the audience. While the film opened with Rs 5 crores, the numbers are just increasing with each passing day. The actors’ powerful performance and good word of mouth has given the film the needed push and has already raked in Rs 27 crores gross.
On a related note, Ranveer Singh has two big films in his kitty- 83' and Takht and Amitabh Bachchan will be next seen in Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt starrer Brahmastra.
