Disney Channel and Graphic India on Tuesday released the first look of upcoming superhero series Astra Force, which features actor Amitabh Bachchan as an animated mythical hero, Astra the Immortal. It was Bachchan’s 74th birthday.

The first look tells the story behind Astra and how he meets two eight-year-old twins, Neal and Tara, as they combine forces to save the universe from a new wave of giant monsters and super villains determined to rule the galaxy.

Bachchan has also lent his voice to the series, which was earlier described as a funny and fast-paced action-adventure entertainer.

The Pink star, who was born in 1942, has been a pivotal part of the Indian entertainment industry for over four decades.

Bachchan, who married actress Jaya Bhaduri, has two children — daughter Shweta and son Abhishek — and three grandchildren, Navya Naveli, Agastya and Aaradhya.
