Amitabh Bachchan recalls risky stunts without safety nets or VFX!

Amitabh Bachchan, the legendary megastar of Indian cinema, has taken a stroll down memory lane, reminiscing about the days when action sequences were filmed without the aid of harnesses or dazzling visual effects. In a recent Instagram post, the iconic actor shared a glimpse from his earlier days in the industry, where he could be seen bravely leaping off a 30-foot cliff for a high-octane action scene.

During an era where black and white films ruled the screens and technological advancements were a distant dream, Bachchan stood as a beacon of grit and dedication. With over 200 films to his credit, he has left an indelible mark on the world of cinema.

In his post, Bachchan fondly recalled the rawness of those times when there were no safety harnesses or fancy visual effects to cushion his fall. Landing on mattresses, if lucky, was the norm, highlighting the stark contrast between the past and the present in filmmaking techniques. He wrote,

"taking off from a 30 foot cliff for an action sequence .. no harness, no face replacement, no VFX .. and landing .. err .. on mattresses .. if you were lucky ..Those were the days my friend."

Fans, quick to shower their beloved star with adulation, flooded the comments section with heartfelt messages. From praising his unwavering commitment to labeling him as the epitome of an action hero, the outpouring of love and respect for Bachchan was palpable.
