‘I do the work myself’: Amitabh Bachchan on managing household chores when help isn’t around

In his recent appearance on Kaun Banega Crorepati 18, veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan recounted the early struggles he faced in the Indian film industry. Reflecting on his beginnings, Bachchan revealed that he was often reprimanded for his height and poor acting skills. During the episode, a contestant named Asmita Dey asked the veteran if he had ever been scolded on set, similar to how athletes receive criticism during training.

In response, Bachchan admitted that he, too, faced significant criticism when he was just starting out. He shared the painful words that were directed at him: "You don’t know anything about acting, you are too tall, go back home." The legendary actor's candid admission sheds light on the challenges and body image issues that many artists encounter in their nascent careers.
