Renowned Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan recently took a trip down memory lane, sharing a captivating throwback picture on his Instagram account. In the photo, Bachchan can be seen in the midst of an intense action scene, seemingly preparing to leap off a daunting 30-foot cliff.

Accompanying the image was a reflective caption from Bachchan himself, shedding light on the challenges of performing stunts in the earlier days of cinema. He reminisced about a time when there were no safety measures like harnesses, face replacement technology, or sophisticated visual effects. Additionally, he humorously noted the absence of a safety mattress, adding a touch of nostalgia to his reminiscence.

In his caption, Bachchan wrote, "Taking off from a 30-foot cliff for an action sequence... no harness, no face replacement, no VFX... and landing... err... on mattresses... if you were lucky... Those were the days my friend."

The post not only offers a glimpse into the daring spirit of actors during that era but also highlights the significant advancements in filmmaking technology over the years.

On the professional front, Bachchan is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film titled 'Kalki 2898 AD,' directed by Nag Ashwin. The star-studded cast includes industry stalwarts such as Kamal Haasan, Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Disha Patani.
