Mumbai : A day after he won the best actor trophy at the 55th Filmfare Awards for his role in `Paa', Amitabh Bachchan received the Taj Enlighten Tareef Award. "I am thankful for the opportunity given to me. I think this is a fabulous moment and a wonderful idea to capture the life of very prominent artistes, seniors who have been involved with the Indian film Industry," Bachchan told reporters before receiving the award from the Taj Enlighten Film Society.
Since Feb 7, the Taj Enlighten Film Society ran "The Amithabh Bachchan Retrospective", a festival showcasing Bachchan's films through the decades. The films showcased included `The Last Lear' (2007), `Agneepath' (1990), `Deewar'(1975) and `Paa' (2009). Bachchan didn't attend 55th Filmfare Awards ceremony Saturday, where he won the best actor award, as he had sought an apology by the organising group's newspaper over something published about one of his family members.
