Amitabh Bachchan is India’s biggest film star. He is the star of more than 150 movies. He lives in Mumbai with his wife , a son, a daughter and a daughter-in-law. His daughter is a TV presenter but the rest of his family are all the actors.

When we met and interviewed Amitabh, he was working on three different films at the same time. India makes the largest number of films per year in the world, so actors work very hard. Amitabh starts work at nine o’clock in the morning and finishes quite late in the evening. It’s often seven o’clock before he goes home. And he hardly ever gets a day off.

Amitabh became a film star in the 1960s when he left his home town, Allahabad, and came to Mumbai, the centre of the Indian film industry. In his early films, he was an action hero and a romantic leading man.

Family is very important to Amitabh. In India, families usually live together, and that’s why his son, daughter and daughter-in-law all live at home with Amitabh and his wife. They spend their evening together as a family, talking and watching TV or a film. They hardly ever go out for dinner. Amitabh never goes out on the streets in Mumbai. He can’t , because he is too famous!

1. What does Amitabh’s daughter-in-law do?

2. What was Amitabh doing when they interviewed him?

3. What time does Amitabh finish work?

4. Which town is Amitabh from?

5. What do Amitabh and his family usually do in the evening?
