Amitabh Bachchan ’s loyal fans never fail to assemble in large numbers outside his Mumbai residence, Jalsa , every Sunday. The 82-year-old actor recently shared in his blog that working on film sets is becoming more demanding as he grows older. He admitted to making mistakes more frequently and struggling with memorising dialogues. The actor shared that he often requests filmmakers for another take to correct errors.

“Meetings and meetings and meetings abound for work to come, and this makes it a test, a challenge—what to take, what to refute, what to politely refuse. The point is that the discussions eventually end up with the topic of the film industry, its functioning, and the state it is in, none of which I am conversant with AT ALL,” he began narrating.

“The concern has always been: what is the work I am getting, and will I or shall I be able to do justice to it? What happens after that is a blur. The production, the costs, the marketing, the exhibition... et al... just an unknown, incomprehensible, dark blur,” Bachchan continued.

Bachchan expressed that age has introduced new hurdles beyond just remembering lines. “And as you age, it’s not just the hurdle of the lines one has to memorise—it’s the multiple age-related contingencies that need to be followed to be able to deliver—deliver content as asked. And then you come home and realise the several errors made and how to repair them... a midnight call to the director to be given another chance to improve or correct,” he shared.

“Ever the recurring fear of the hundreds of tasks that need to be completed.. pending for the time to be sought... and each time its.. err.. TOMORROW.. tomorrow it shall be done.. and tomorrow never comes... BUT The discipline has to be enforced and time to get on the knees and socks pulled and work to be done.. Off to retire..” the ' Sholay ' actor concluded his words.

On the work front, Amitabh Bachchan was last seen in the blockbuster hit movie ' Kalki 2898 AD ' last year. The movie, directed by Nag Ashwin, also featured Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone , and Prabhas in lead roles.
