Amitabh Bachchan is not only a legendary actor but is also a charismatic TV host with an authoritative voice. The star has been hosting the show?Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) since its inception in 2000, barring one season where he was replaced by Shah Rukh Khan. Today, on the veteran actor's 82nd birthday, let's take a look back at some of his best looks on the long-running show that prove he is a timeless style icon and a fashion force in his own right!
While we all have come to love Amitabh Bachchan's three-piece suits in the show, a sort of dress code he has donned since its inception, his fun new twists are even more interesting. He has been experimenting with the classics in the last few seasons, and this stylish suit is one of his best looks. Rather than going for something basic, Amitabh donned this blue and brown-toned suit with a bold geometric pattern. He paired his fun suit with a crisp white shirt, matching tie and pocket square and trendy pastel green sneakers.
No season of Kaun Banega Crorepati is complete without at least a few of these bandhgala sightings on Amitabh Bachchan. Another one of his wardrobe staples, this time the senior Bachchan styled a pastel pink floral bandhgala jacket featuring exquisitely embellished buttons and a bright pink pocket square. He paired his stylish jacket with a traditional white kurta and matching jodhpuris and looked dapper with his signature?French beard.
Elevating his style game in the more recent seasons, Amitabh Bachchan is bringing his vibrant personality to life with unique scarves with his suits. More often than not, he is now seen styling a fun-patterned scarf and a matching pocket square along with his classic suit and tie combo to add a unique element to his look. A solid-coloured suit with an eye-catching scarf has now become somewhat of a go-to for him in the past few seasons.
Accessories are another way he adds an interesting touch to complete his dapper look. Whether it is s statement brooch or a tie-clip, Amitabh Bachchan is getting more and more creative with his classic looks. For instance, this embellished tiger-shaped tie-clip that he wore in an episode featuring former cricketers Sourav Ganguly and Virender Sehwag is one of his most iconic accessories to date through which he effortlessly elevated his boring black suit.
Another staple on the show is Amitabh Bachchan's effort to respect and celebrate the rich cultural heritage of India. The star is often dressed in traditional clothes from different parts of the country on occasion of festivals native to the region. For instance, recently he wore a traditional 'veshti', which is an unstitched white cloth wrapped around the lower body in Tamil Nadu, with a matching kurta. Donning the traditional attire he wished everyone a very happy Baisakhi, Bohag, Bihu, Vishu, Puthandu, Poila Baisakh and Mahavishuba Sankranti!
