Amitabh Bachchan, a veteran actor in the Indian film industry, has recently shared his perspective on the shifts and evolving standards of belief held by the younger generation. In various blog posts and media interactions, the actor has reflected on the importance of instilling strong cultural and moral foundations, or "sanskaar," in today's youth, while also acknowledging the differences in how younger people perceive and approach life.

Bachchan has emphasized the significance of values and ethics in shaping the younger generation. He expressed concern regarding the erosion of traditional values in a rapidly changing world, stressing the importance of teaching children the difference between right and wrong for their overall development. He wrote that learning something new each day exemplifies the worth of its value. Values, according to Bachchan, are what life brings, which we apply or believe to be the ethical and considered norm. He further elaborated on "sanskaar" as an inborn power of faculty, a refinement, an adorning, and the conduct of 'how,' 'when,' and 'where'. He believes that "sanskaar" breathes endlessly to the very end of existence, encompassing not only humans but all beings.

The actor has also recognized the unique attributes and capabilities of the new generation, acknowledging their confidence and understanding of their craft. He has admitted to feeling scared while working with the new generation of actors like Alia Bhatt, Anushka Sharma, and Deepika Padukone, recognizing their brilliance and maturity. Bachchan has also observed that the younger generation knows exactly what they are doing, possessing a level of confidence and maturity that took him years to develop.

In his reflections on modern life, Bachchan has pondered how much things have changed over his 82 years. He noted that systems, people, and environments have all undergone change. While acknowledging that these modern times are good for the generation that inhabits the Universe today, he also considers those who started their habitation 82 years ago. Bachchan recognizes that he and others of his generation remain the same, which he considers to be both a curse and a blessing.

Bachchan has also touched upon the importance of time and discipline. He observed that when time is limited, more work tends to get accomplished, while procrastination often sets in when time seems abundant. He admitted to being a "victim of time in hand" but is trying to overcome this issue.

Despite acknowledging the generational differences, Bachchan remains committed to his work and craft. He recognizes that working on movie sets is growing more difficult as he gets older and often requests directors to give him another chance to correct errors. Despite the challenges, he continues to be driven by the love and support of his audience.
