Actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan feels her father-in-law and megastar Amitabh Bachchan's stardom is iconic and will stay forever.
In a career spanning over four decades, Bachchan has delivered power packed performances in blockbusters like "Deewar", "Zanjeer", "Don", "Sholay", "Namak Halal", "Abhimaan", "Baghban", "Black", "Sarkar" and "Paa" to name a few.
The 72-year-old actor has been honoured with Padma Shri, Padma Bhushan and Padma Vibhushan for his contribution to Indian cinema.
"We all are family today... He is Paa. I think no one can take away that from him. Abhishek being his son keeps earnestly saying that no one can take his immense body of work away from him. It evokes respect and admiration," Aishwarya told PTI.
"He was, is and forever will be iconic to all of us. Everyone will think that way today and forever. It has to be admired, respect and appreciated," she said.
Big B would be turning 73 on October 11. And when asked about the birthday plans this year, Aishwarya chose not to reveal anything.
Bachchan will be seen next in Bejoy Nambiar's "Wazir" in which he is playing a paralysed chess grandmaster alongside Farhan Akhtar and Aditi Rao Hydari.
Aishwarya will be back on screen with Sanjay Gupta's "Jazbaa".
