Jenny Bhatt's ‘Drama in Color’ pays tribute to the timeless legacy of Amitabh Bachchan, whose influence on Indian cinema has transcended generations. His journey in cinema is distinguished by performances that resonate with raw emotion and compelling narratives.

The painting captures his towering persona through layers of imagery, reflecting the magnanimous characters that defined his career. In Deewaar (1975), Bachchan portrayed Vijay Verma, a character whose badge with the No. 786 became a symbol of faith and protection. This motif carried into Coolie (1983), where he played Iqbal Khan, donning a uniform with "Billa No. 786." These roles cemented his image as a resilient and charismatic figure while showcasing the cultural significance of the No. 786 in popular imagination. Bhatt references these defining roles to highlight the resilience and impact of Bachchan's characters, which helped shape Indian cinema's narrative.

Reflecting on the golden years of cinema, Bhatt brings her pop-surrealist sensibilities to celebrate the multifaceted persona of Bachchan. From his rise as the "Angry Young Man" of Bollywood to becoming a revered icon, Bachchan's journey reflects an unparalleled evolution, crossing genres and redefining stardom. Uniting the masses with his larger-than-life persona and grounded characters that resonated with the common man's aspirations, Bachchan left an indelible mark on Indian cinema. Through a blend of form, color, and composition, Bhatt creates a visual journey that immortalizes his transformative career across five decades.
