Why Amitabh Bachchan's 'Job Application' became the talk of the town

Over the weekend, Amitabh Bachchan left us chuckling after he posted a job application on social media

Over the weekend, Amitabh Bachchan left us chuckling after he posted a job application on social media. Big B was amused to read a report about the problems a filmmaker faces when the female actor is taller than the male co-star.

Deepika Padukone towered above Shahid Kapoor during Padmaavat and the makers had to go the extra mile to ensure that she did not appear taller than him. Similar is the case with Katrina Kaif and Aamir Khan, who are currently shooting for Thugs Of Hindostan. 

Bachchan wrote, "Job application. Name: Amitabh Bachchan. DOB: 11.10.1942. Age: 76 with 49 years experience in films, approx 200 films acted. Speaks Hindi. Height: 6'2"... you will never have height problem (sic)." Truer words were never spoken. With Big B, no female actor will have to bend to appear shorter and develop a hunchback.
