Amitabh Bachchan On Why He Keeps Working: It's My Choice

Amitabh Bachchan, the legendary actor, often faces questions from his colleagues about why he continues to work. The 81-year-old star, currently hosting the 16th season of "Kaun Banega Crorepati," finds it challenging to provide an answer beyond considering it another job opportunity.

Bachchan expressed that while people are free to form their opinions about his professional life, he equally has the freedom to keep working. In a blog post, he wrote: ".. they keep asking me on set of work .. the reason for me to be working .. and I have no answers for this , except it's another job opportunity for me .. what else could possibly be the reason .."

The veteran actor believes that everyone has their own interpretations and often tries to understand his motivations. He stated: "Others have their own assessment of occasions and conditions, and often like to exercise their model to be prime .. wear my shoes , and find out .. maybe you are right ..and maybe not .. you have the liberty to have your conclusions and I have the liberty of my work .. (sic)"

Bachchan encourages others to start working if they wish to understand his drive. He mentioned that while his reasons remain personal and undisclosed, people should focus on their own tasks. ".. and the 'impotency of content' compels you to build your own sand castles and enjoy its manufacturing .. in time sandcastles fall down .. may you that build them , find a measure of permanency .. if it has been built for you and your business .. mine is done and it stands still - I WORK .. PERIOD .. got a problem with that ? well then .. get to work and find out .. (sic)" he said.

Recently seen in "Kalki 2898 AD," Bachchan will next appear in "Vettaiyan" alongside Rajinikanth. His continuous involvement in new projects showcases his unwavering dedication to his craft.
