Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan, or "Big B" as he is fondly known, was the focus of a new documentary and major retrospective at this year's Festival des 3 Continents (Three Continents Festival) in Nantes. RFI spoke to the star's daughter, who says the world's interest in her father underlines the universal appeal of Indian cinema.
Among the hundreds of filmgoers at the 45th Three Continents Festival was Shweta Bachchan, who flew over to Nantes from India to represent her father, 81-year-old Amitabh – a legend in the world of Hindi cinema.
