Management Lessons from the Films of Big B is a book born out of sheer love and passion for the movies of the great   legend—Amitabh Bachchan; and its journey began with the repeated watching of the films of Amitabh Bachchan, especially  Deewar  and  the meeting-room scene where Vijay—the hero plunges into action and is given confidence by the Boss bringing a ‘Eureka!’. The films are entertaining, of course, as it is the primary objective of any film. They also throw light on the contemporary society. But extracting the lessons  for  management, leadership,   day-to-day professional attitude and learning for the personal life as well has hardly  been  contemplated hitherto.
This book will give an insight into the diverse topics which Amitabh Bachchan’s movies are based on and will provide valuable input about his dialogues and memorable acting.
