gcreptile 10,970 Posted March 15, 2018 Amitabh Bachchan is the all-time greatest Bollywood star and 75 years old now. He has periodically suffered from ill health and recently fell ill again: http://www.sify.com/movies/will-pray-to-god-he-will-be-alright-rajinikanth-on-amitabh-bachchans-ill-health-news-bollywood-sdpmdyjdgbjhd.html He also has hepatitis C and lost 75% of his liver function: http://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/bollywood/i-am-surviving-only-on-25-per-cent-of-my-liver-today-amitabh-bachchan/ I think he should get more attention from us. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted March 17, 2018 Who? I'm going to go out on a limb, cuz surely there is an exception to the rule, but I'm going to say if a person has the letters 'bh' consecutively in their name, they are not a celebrity under any definition. The minute you said 'Bhollywood' you pushed him into the outer circle of the diagram at best. Yours, etc., SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yours, etc., SC I'm gonna disagree with you on Amitabh Bachchan as he is considered the most famous Bollywood actor ever and known pretty much everywhere in the Eastern world. I am nigh 100% sure that when he dies, his death will make front page BBC News as other Bollywood actors who were much lesser in fame (such as Shashi Kapoor and Vinod Khanna) did. Hence, I think he definitely counts as a celebrity. He hasn't made his mark on the West, I guess, but he made his Hollywood debut in the 2013 Baz Luhrmann film, The Great Gatsby, as Meyer Wolfsheim.

Last tweet is from June, with a retweet in September. Given it wasn't him tweeting to begin with, rather someone doing it for him, he's either seriously ill with the condition being hidden, or physically relatively okay but mentally gone cuckoo.
