Prateeksha, Mumbai November 2, 2009 Mon 11 : 23 PM
At 6 in the morning, the world feels and sounds different. At 3 in the morning the world seemed distant and unaware of circumstances. The shoulder positioned as it was in awkward conditions, decided to announce its gravest fear - pain ! It became an ordeal or should one say exercise in heavy artillery movement, to shift in bed. The handy anti inflammatory that one has got used to, found its way into the mouth and with a swish of the liquid acqua minerale, it lodged itself in the confines of the area that was under stress. The medication works like magic and immediate relief gave me the opportunity to put in that extra few hours of much needed slumber.
But by 6.30 it was pushing iron and chasing images on the tread mill. The yoga, the BP measurement, the information transfer to the doctor and straight into a recording studio, lending my voice figuratively and otherwise to the cause of the 26/11 tragedy. Sonu Nigam, that talented singer from our world of film and pop and classical had asked me to participate in a song that he was doing for those whom we lost that fateful day. I did. Many different singers from our trade had participated in it to lend it a spirit of togetherness and strength. Of faith in our independence, and the love for those that became ours in defending our freedom. I am joyed by the effort and give voice to it. And then it was back to PAA and its dubbing.
For most of the remaining day, valuable discussions on the marketing of the film PAA and how it needs to be promoted prevailed. The official look shall be released on the 4th by an unveiling of the final poster and then the first promo shall be up on the blog on the 5th. The channels shall be carrying it from the 6th.
As the final day of release approaches, the labor and extent of hard work gone into the film whizzes by. Those arduous 5 hour make up sessions and the difficult hours before and after it seem distant now but carry all the memories of the work done and undertaken.
I wonder if it is prudent to put down what the initial results from the promo have revealed. There is a sense of wonder and awe. There is disbelief and there is love and emotion. Balki, the director showed the promo to Yash Chopra and he promptly called back, to say he could not believe what he was seeing. It was stupendous he said. A short while ago Adi Chopra has sent me a message delighted with the promo he saw too and has been calling up Abhishek to express what he believes will be a landmark film. He felt cinema bench marks would be set again and that the film even before he could see a single frame had suggested to him of its huge box office prospects.
I shall breathe easily tonight. The fear of a bad shoulder has somewhat disappeared and before it gets to a position where it would reappear I just wish to get into bed and see the night through unlike last night.
There is a huge sense of guilt that pervades. For days now the elder has not been able to attend to the responses he is receiving and this makes him extremely sad. There is also the matter of the 838485, which hangs like a balance. But it will be done. And by me. !!
I must retire … but I wish to leave you with two of the sms I received today -
‘Today you brought tears of joy and happiness to my eyes. Today you inspired me. Today you made me realize that you never stop dreaming. Today you made me remember why we go to the cinema. Today I saw the promo of PAA. It has left such an impact on me that I have yet to stop thinking about it. I knew about the script but I never thought it could be pulled off. Today you proved me wrong. Today you touched me. Today the way i heard you say PAA still rings in my ear. Today I feel like calling my Dad … Paa. Thank you for this.’
‘Uncle Balki showed me the promo of Paa, it was outstanding and it looks like once again you are going to set a new benchmark - all the best, uncle.’
Till the morrow then …

PAA– “Introducing Amitabh Bachchan” MINDBLOWING MINDBLOWING MINDBLOWING MINDBLOWING. I dont konw who is behind this idea but sir telling you People are already thrilled by this line.
“Paa” This word makes me happy because i alwayz called my dad “Paa”. I am already exited to watch “PAA” with my “PAA”

Thank You Everyone for joining this event
Dear Sir,
I just saw one of your comments on Coffee with Karan that Indian Cinema will improve leaps and bounds in five years (The comment was in the year 2004)…..
5 YEARS SINCE… do you think we have improved to compete with the west in terms of quality of the entertainment???
I still think BLACK is the only movie in all its form to compete with the hollywood movie… Your thoughts sir?
yes we are improving daily ;
Hello Sir - Hope things are fine at ur end.
ALLADIN movie is superb and I like the rap song….I didn’t like reviews of this movie but movie is very good….waiting for RANN and PAA.
Now I watch Big Boss
take care
Ajay Mishra
love and thanks
Wonderful to know that the veterans and the newbies of the industry are complimenting your work and the movie. Standards are set everyday…..in every field. Its great to know that new ones will be set in your industry by you
Now I cant wait for the movie……seriously!
Too late to say goodluck, since the work is actually done now, but I do wish that your ‘paa’ team be astounded with the result.
need all your blessings and love ..
BOSS -
My expectations for PAA have increased 10 fold after reading your blog. The concept of the movie is so unique and everything that is good in the film will only make it more interesting and rewarding for all the hardwork you have put in the movie. I hope and pray that you have a huge success with this movie and hope that this will be a new beginning for AB Corp for producing quality films. All da best!!
Sagar
love you and more ..

Take care AmitJi. No worries on 838485, that should be indeed last on your priority list; rest assured FmXt will understand. When you write about your movies, I somehow am able to relate to it even though I am from IT world. There too, we strive hard to make products with immense features and function which we perceive would be really like by our customers. Once the product is launched it meets it own destiny. Not much is in our hands. In same way, I’d say, put in your best; rest is the destiny of the product, movie, in your case. I, of course, wish the very best for each and every of your movie.
destiny is good to rely on after hard work .. love

Hello Sir,
Eagerly eagerly looking forward to watch Paa. All the very best for that.
Great to know that this film is going to be different and might go on to set a new benchmark. Good on you guys to have the confidence in the project and bringing it to life.
We can’t win a battle if we don’t involve ourselves with the fear of losing.
Take care,

Hello Amitji
Dear Amitji,
I’ve just returned from the late night show of Aladin. And I’d like to share my views on the film with you. No, I have not read any of the previous reviews as I did not want it them to colour my opinion. One of the advantages and disadvantages of blogging is that you get to hear the candid opinions of your audience rather than the ‘candied’ ones! Well Sir, you asked for this! Bear with me.
My reaction is not pure unadulterated joy. The brightest star of the film is undoubtedly Riteish Deshmukh. There is something impish about his charm, something innocent about his wide eyes that endears you to him instantly. And can he act! The first dance sequence when he pretends to be made to dance by the genie is fantastically executed. He really pulled that one off very well—tell him that when you meet him next. Genius- the genie- is not over the top as you wrote in your last post. But well executed—brought to life as intended. I understand why you chose to do the film. And Jacqueline is really good as well. She is here to stay in Mumbai. There are moments of laughter and wit which pepper the film. So why will this film not go down well in box office collections as anticipated?
I think the director’s vision was a little too grandiose. He probably intended to pack all his punches into one film. I came back wishing the film was a little more simple. This way, it is neither a kiddie film, not a mature film—simply a very abstract film. I think like Bhootnath, if it is replayed again and again on television, we will perhaps grow to like it. But had Sujoy maintained the simplicity of the story without too complicated sequences, it would have retained its magic.
I was dancing in my seat when I heard O re saanwariya again… but nothing beats the original which you did with Kanchan. And I wish the songs weren’t ‘stuffed’ into the movie. The good work of the music department is diluted as songs are almost back to back.
I did appreciate the awesome sets and the special effects. But sometimes simplicity does the trick… with a little bit of emotional tugs on the heart.
Better luck next time to your team. I appreciate the hard work put in, but these comments are intended to see a better product next time.
Regards and love

Amitji,
May you always be in happy and joyous mood..PAA definately has the potential to be a blockbuster..as its pushes the envelope and is something very different to what we have seen before..Im so glad the feedback is so positive..I just wish there is enough time for the movies soundtrack to pick up as with the trailor..Go Amitji, give the film industry something new with your movies..
I still cant get over the performance of Aladdin at the BO…I just wish now PAA will whip the BO clean and give the biggest hit of hits tag…
Awesome that you are getting positive feedback and that three poster look on the PAA website are definately interesting…cant wait for the trailor..
So great to be getting super feedback from peers with the industry…hope this continues…

Dear Amitji
Anytime I am looking to somebody else as my source, I’m coming from scarcity. I am no longer trusting God, or the Universe, for my harvest. It’s reasonable for me to have expectations based on what somebody I trust has committed to. And it’s natural for me to feel disappointed when that somebody doesn’t come through. But when I feel more than disappointment, when I also feel anger, it’s because I deviated from my truth. It’s because I compromised my truth to get what somebody else promised. Because when I’m really following my truth, I will be at peace with the consequences — whatever they are. I can accept somebody else’s truth, but I must live my own truth. This often comes across every individual’s life…what matters most is the life that one leads…being reasonable is always the best way of dealing and is stated to be impartial…
Some of the biggest challenges in relationships come from the fact that most people enter a relationship in order to get something: they’re trying to find someone who’s going to make them feel good. In reality, the only way a relationship will last is if you see your relationship as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take..what a great quote by Anthony Robbins and how true it is!!
Today, when you achieve laurels, you are praised and not many do it wholeheartedly, how can this be ever measured….
Amitji, you are in a Phase of attaining the best in your life…We all wish u always success and good health…All the sarcastic tones of media are only trying to get on ur nerves..get going and keep up ur spirits always!!!
Luv and Regards
Shankar
all will be well .. patience .. love
Ah one thing I wanted to add about expectation from your movie ‘Paa’. I’d say keep it to minimum. Just thoughts, it might be superior technically but will the people at large able to relate to the subject matter? Whatever I have heard, realistically speaking, not sure.
wait and watch ..
Dear Amitji,
Do take care of your shoulder. And Paa will do well…. we know the hard work that went into its making.
Breathe easy and sleep tight!
Love
Anshu
Love u Amitji
Hope u recover soon !!! u will be alright very soon
All the very best for PAA …..looking forward to watch it

good night
sir–is this true?if ash is involved with the PAA film–it likely fails..
what is budget of PAA?
o what exactly is Aishwarya doing for Paa? Our source revealed, “She is taking almost all the marketing decisions related to the film and laying down various strategies on how to promote it. For this, she is spending hours with the creative and the marketing teams.”
film PAA is made in 15 cr .. actually 14.75 cr .. amazing control !! No Ashwariya is not involved in the marketting of the film , but even if she was we would welcome it .. And thank you for wishing that the film fails … i will disprove you ..love

Hi sir,
You are truly a big big source of inspiration. Such a hard working individual at this age is quite difficult to find. Wish you all the best for Paa.. Tk cr sir..
Lots of love,
Your admirer..
hi
Chopras and Johars should stop making candy-floss kind movies and YOU should stop acting in them. You deserve kinds of RGV and Balki - those that amply use your craft to tell a story.

Have a nice day Amitabhji
hi sir.. Let me read your post now then will get back.. Love always Mondira.
Pain ! Hmmm…. pain is with us starting from the process of one’s birth ! where there is no pain there is no Gain ! Ahh! old saying ! But some of the pains bring no Gain though !
whether it may be in some body part or deep down in the Heart(of losing some near & Dear) OR some media guy harrasing OR some political plotting against one. thats just PIA & yeild no fruits however.
Hope you feel better. rest in right posture might help a li’ll.
Good luck with the marketing roll-out - sounds like a lot of hard work put in by lots of people.
The curiosity you have pumped in such a way that its becoming uncontrollable to hold myself and keep patience for 5th Nov when you will put ‘PAA’ promo.
With love and warm regards,

Amitabh-ji–
You have clearly moved on to bigger and better matters, but for myself, I found out that Aladin could be watched in the US, and took my grown son yesterday! Whee! Great fun. Unfortunately there were few in the theater. One family with very young children sat behind us–children clearly too young to be handling subtitles, and not looking like they probably spoke Hindi. I asked the father afterwards, and he admitted that he chose the movie without realizing that it was in Hindi. But they seem to have understood enough to have enjoyed themselves without words.
I had good conversation with my son about wishes, and woke up in the middle of the night to write my own blog entry about the movie–more about my thoughts than the movie per se, but if anyone wants to take a look, here are my rambles.

Seems like Paa will be interesting.

Hi, sir
very very good morning
Dear Amitji,
Sorry to hear of your painful shoulder. Hope you sleep better tonight. Glad to
hear the reactions of Yash and Adi Chopra about PAA. Looking forward to watching
the film.
Something to make you smile…children say the funniest and sweetest things to make us laugh…it was Halloween here on Saturday 31st Oct, my daughter wanted to go knock on neighbours doors for ‘trick or treat’, I had bought her a dress up dress and she put it on ready with the matching hat and exclaimed
‘I look like a real witch now!’ - she couldn’t understand why I was rolling about laughing.
Happy to have my son back home for a while for his graduation ceremony on the 4th November.
Good night and God Bless
Love and best wishes

Where can we see the promo for PAA?
I’m sorry you had to go through more pain during the night but glad the anit-inflammatory worked well enough for you to get some exercise.
I can’t wait to hear that song you recorded for with the great Sonu Nigam. I love his voice. And with your beautiful voice I’m sure everyone will be touched by it.
What a reaction that is to the promo for ‘Paa’, Only a few days away from its appearance on the blog. That must be some unbelievable promo to indicate a benchmark and landmark film. Even before seeing it, I think many of us have a strong feeling that this will be the case. I hope and wish that this does indeed happen for you , Abhishek and the rest of the team. To have all these reactions to a promo from the director and veterans of the film industry is very impressive.
Please don’t feel bad about not replying on the blog. That’s all you need is to have the burden of guilt on your sore shoulder! Having your films release and providing us with entertainment is the most important thing.
All the best for ‘Paa’. Congratulations on the response to the promo. Please take of that shoulder, neck, and back. We want to see you healthy. Sleep well tonight.
Love,
Rochelle
Good Evening Sir,
I pray that your pain is alleviated soon.
Good luck with PAA, I am sure it will be a hit.
Will reply again soon. Please try and look at my comment no.9 from day 554 if possible.

What is meaning of fmXt ?
838485?????????? is this ur number?????????
no it is DAY 483, 484, and 485 … i have to reply to all the comments that came on it …
THE EARLY REPORTS ON ‘PAA”ARE VERY VERY ENCOURAGING. IF ADI AND YASH ,THE BOX OFFICE WIZARDS, HAVE LIKED ”PAA” IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT THIS YOUR OWN PRODUCTION WILL INDEED CREATE HISTORY IN FILM MAKING
WITH BEST WISHES,
DEVKISHIN VYAS
Dear Sir,
i was having call with my colleagues one in delhi and other in kolkatta and as i finished it… refreshed my rss feed to see your blog new entry…..
I have started admiring you a lot for your daily diligence of blogging and routine that you put here. sir, may i ask you with reverence what keeps you going everyday, and every moment of each day..
Regards and lots of love
Shashi
you keep me going …
whoa ! so you have a plan to make us cry Mr. B !? yep ! it seems so from those two sms. everyone loves their Paa. so it must be a very sentimental trip to theater for most of us esp. female viewers.
Kya baat hai Sir
You have written a great piece again
IT APPEARS THE STORY LINE OF ”PAA’ IS VERY TOUCHING AND IT LEAVES DEEP IMRESSION ON ONE’S MIND.
NEEDS PROPER MARKETING.
THE PROMOTIONAL VIDEO SHOULD POSSIBLY CARRY ANY TOUCHING SEQUENCE WHICH WOULD ATTRACT THE CINE-GOERS
I am not able to follow meaning of fmXt being used in many blogs. It will be great if someone can help me understand the meaning so that I will be able to relate blog.

Very sorry to hear the pain has resurfaces frequently.
Not so surprised to hear your prom for the film Paa was received well by none other than Yash Chopra. The film does appear to be a landmark in Indian Cinema and we all can’t wait for it’s release.
Going to Cinema’s is a joy. Seeing you on the Big screen is ever better than on any format at home. We all look forward to it.
Great sms messages also. Very touching and dear .. I also echo the message. Many of our family may feel the same. Films, like Black also which leave a mark and memory that forever remains and continues to live within our hearts.
Love always,

Good Evening Again Sir,

YOU HAVE MILES TO GO AMITABHJI TAKE CARE AND TAKE PROPER REST.
Hi Amitji..,
I really admire the way you write. your choice of words are splendid.I have rarely seen people write a blog with no shortcuts in spelling and using the exact punctuation. wow!!! I guess certain things are definetly there in your genes.. After reading your blog I have decided to read one of the books written by ur FATHER.

Dear Mr. Bachchan,
Those compliments from respected personalities indicate PAA is a must watch for all of us. I am sure you will not disappoint with your work.
Its good to hear that you have been ‘officially’ cleared in one the cases against you. Your lofty ideals have always set you apart and your status is worth every bit of it. All the best Sir.
Dear Amit ji
To day I got an oprtunity to write 1st comment on this wall. So just I want to say wish you all the best of your upcoming movie.
Sir
No it’s not……..lol………
838485, any light on this would help
WHICH IS NEXT IN LINE AFTER ‘PAA” IS IT JOHNNY MASTANA(SHOEBITE) OR TEEN PATTI?BOTH THE TITLES ARE INTERESTING.
HAS ABCL STARTED PRODUCING FILMS?
I UNDERSTAND ”PAA” IS AN ABCL PRODUCTION. IS IT YOUR HOME PRODUCTION?
Confession! I can’t act, not even to save my life. Did I tell you that I had a small role in a play that was put together by one of our friends? Well, we celebrated Deepawali on the 31st of Oct. The Indian community got together for an evening of entertainment and fireworks and good desi food. Well, we had a great time and Amit, my quiet and calm Amit was the ’sutradhar’of the play. Boy, the man can act and remember his lines and emote and dance. People were stunned to see an introvert just take over. I was so impressed that hum to jhoom ke unse phir se shaadi karne ko tyiyaar ho gaye!
I can hardly wait to see the promos of Paa. I don’t care what the review say about Aladdin, I am going to watch the movie.
Hope your shoulder feels better soon. My neck has been giving me problems and I am on some strong medications myself. The doctors say it is related to my spending a lot of time analyzing data on the computer. It is so frustrating…….
loveyou
Hi Amitji,
I watched Kasauti last night, how is Pranji, I have not seen or heard him on Film/ TV for ages.
Copying my comments on day 554:
“As I mentioned a few days ago. The blog has created something unique with one common theme and that is thousands of people with utmost respect for you and now it is turning into a friend circle beyond borders, religions etc as we exchange wishes with people who write to each other on a daily basis from all around the globe.
You should be proud of this amazing achievement as I have seen nothing of the sort anywhere. We are a gloabl force to be reckoned with and the media cannot break our will or trust in you.
I bought a car a few weeks back with the registration starting EF- how appropriate as I am part of the biggest family in the world- The Bachchan parivaar aka EF.”
Please do come to London and see some of your UK regulars if you can, we love you lots.
Regards
Naresh

Hello Amitabhji, Mr Bachchan, our dear Big B
I always thought I am your #1 fan, but it was only yesterday that I learnt on NDTV that you blog… what a fan! Don’t keep track of you so much…
To think of it that my one dream - still is after two kids and moving out of India, to see you in person someday! I watch each and every movie of yours more than a million times( yea even flop ones like Jadugar and such) and loved you in every single one - no matter how bad the story is - you are always the best .. I used to send you a birthday card when i was in India -15 years ago.. i also got a typed letter from you as a reply wishing me for my marriage as I had written a letter with one of the cards .. so much so that my sons have taken my liking for you from me - they are born and raised in the USA but they are huge fans of yours.. The younger one used to call you ” chali Chali uncle until recently ” now he goes Amitabh sometimes!!!
As you said in your blog- “life moves on” and people get busy with managing and tackling their own personal lives , but Amitabh Bachchan always affects them all the way … saat samundar paar!!
Aladin is a huge success … atleast in Colorado, USA. We want to see if first day first show but has not come to theater here … Good luck for that in India and all the things you do.. I wish you good health and happiness…
Hope to have my dream come true!!
Thanks for being you!
Urvashi
honored and happy …
Dearest Amitji,
Glad to know that you are doing fine and getting on to the regular routine… How is everyone at home? Convey my regards to all of them. Will revert back to you after reading today’s blog…. Take care till then….

Dear Amit ji,
this film will be a landmark film in the history of Indian Cinema.I’m sure you’ll rock in it just like Genius in Aladdin!!!yo…
aniket
What a pity !
Dear Amitabhji, this one might take you away from your recent blog’s purview but couldn’t resist writing about what happens to a commoner in “actual” in the media industry…. It only demands and respects ‘connections’ with big people or reference or some kind of jack/money ( excuse me for that word )
The auditions for Bigg Boss Season 3 ( non-celebrity entry) happened on 26th Oct, 2009 , Monday at a hotel Grand Sarovar Premier, Goregaon , Mumbai.
I have been a great fan of yours as well as Bigg Boss and even lucky enough to be called for the auditions as I had called a number displayed on TV for the same… I cleared the ‘GD round’.. got short-listed for ‘introduction in front of camera round’.. it was very innovative and liked by the judge who again short listed me for the ‘final interview in front of camera round’.. which again was highly appreciated by both the judges !
But to my utter dismay, I was not the person chosen by BIGG BOSS management as I dont have any contacts or reference..
I really fail to understand that if such culture prevails, how come we people especially me who has tremendouns tremendous potential to act ( not blowing my trumphet but there is no person in Nagpur who after meeting me has slightest of doubt that I cant make in big on screen..) will ever flourish…
Its such a pain… and I am dis-appointed by the way things are going on..
TALENTED IS NOT GIVEN CHANCE , WHICH HE IS WORTH.
YOU MUST BE BORN IN HOME OF A STAR TO BECOME A STAR.
I know anyone’s reaction on this will be ” apne aap ko bada hero samajhtaa hai.. isse achche aur logon ko select kar liya hoga… ” but I really want all the people who think like that to , if possible , see my video clip thats recorded at the hotel.. with 100% confidence, you w’d have selected mine candidature for same.
If you ever get a chance ( i may sound demanding or childish ) but , if you ever get a chance, please see the recorded clip of mine ( Name Abhishek Verma, and unique code for Auditions M087) .. you may be able to judge that the actual right candidate for BIGG BOSS - Season 3 is me and only me.
It is immensely gratifying to read this post pertaining to the promotion as well as the reactions to the film’s promo. This film certainly promises something special and even these very early posters (a new one on the site for those who haven’t seen it where your eyes can be seen..) point in such a direction. as I mentioned the other day I had a very good feeling once I saw the poster. It is always a bit presumptuous to make these sorts of claims when one is not integrally connected to the industry but experience over a lifetime (perhaps not measured in years but number of films viewed!) has given me a certain sense of smell (!) in these matters and to this extent the first poster or two have passed the test for me. As you know I was a bit apprehensive both about how the campaign would be handled and how this film with a very different theme would be introduced to the audience.
I would like to address another point here that was raised in other quarters and hardly for the very first time. People often have the sense that I show too much deference to you and not as much when it comes to other stars. I have always pointed out that I prefer speaking my mind even if many might not find this sort of candor welcome. It is I think one of your extraordinary attributes that even being the titan that you are in your field you are very open to such criticism. You are not particularly concerned about ‘who’ the person making it is, only in the substance of the argument. This is truly a great quality to have, it is rare enough among people who are not public figures, let alone among those like yourself who have received adulation of every kind for so long in life. This is why I have continued being audacious here, continued engaging in candor that sometimes even I feel guilty about. But all of it is done with the greatest sincerity and I hope politeness and civility. I say all of this to also connect once more with the statement someone made the other day (whoever it was) and which you then quoted and I also responded to yesterday. Because I honestly do feel offended when you are not shown a basic degree of politeness. The question then becomes (and I bring up the earlier point again) whether I do indeed show you too much deference. I think the answer is both yes and no. No to the extent that I keep indulging in rather forthright opinion here. Yes inasmuch as such OUGHT to be given to an artist of your pre-eminence in any field. Moreso as one considers your incredible humility which is surely well-represented on this blog as well. But to stick to the first point should one accord equal deference to Lata Mangeshkar and Alka Yagnik?! One can have respect for the latter but it would be a rather bizarre world where one considered the two to be deserving of equal reverence! There is no need to multiply the examples here. Again the criticism that was directed at me arose because I am prone to making statements on Shahrukh or Hrithik or whoever that are not really seen as welcome ones by the respective fans. The tendency toward open, healthy debate is still a rarity in the subcontinent, one regrets to note. Every position is seen as a plainly partisan one without the substance of the argument ever being engaged with. Often the greatest partisans try to paint others as such. The evidence that I am making some of the strongest claims on this very blog seems not to persuade anyone. Because of course the ‘obscene’ truth here is that no one really wants a fair discussion. People just don’t want their favorites questioned in any manner whatsoever.
At any rate I am not only proud to assert that I show you deference without losing a critical approach by any means (I think you can testify to this!), I think everyone should do so. Much as Mohanlal should be shown deference or Lawrence Olivier should be shone deference or Maria Callas should be shown the same. It is not blindness or mere deference to maintain that these figures much like yourself are so outstanding in their fields and in terms of the ‘work’ they’ve produced that one always has to start with the right kind of respect for that achievement, that history, that legacy in each instance. It is precisely this which is all too often missing in Bollywood these days (beyond what is expressed in the most superficial sense by many). Once upon a time it was very different, it is still different in the South. This is a ‘theme’ in any case I’ve often harped upon in different contexts. This is where the whole ‘history’ angle comes in as well. One should have respect for what has gone before irrespective of how one feels about it. I will mention Rajesh Khanna lastly. Whatever one might think about his acting abilities or how he handled himself as a star-actor ‘after the fall’ one can never forget what he was once. His ‘first superstar’ (I shall say yet again that there have only ever been two!) tag cannot be taken away from him. So deference ought to be there for many reasons but certainly one cannot disagree with this notion when it is question of true titans in a field. That one even has to explain oneself on this is a little strange. When people therefore wonder if I am showing you too much deference my response one way or the other is: yes I am but what’s wrong with you that you’re even asking this question! Beyond this, yes, I do accept certain ‘faults’ cheerfully. If you mention Amitabh Bachchan and Shahrukh Khan in the same sentence I switch off instantly, if you think Priyadarshan’s Hindi comedies are comparable to Mukherjee’s great films I again switch off, if you think Sunidhi Chauhan is comparable to Asha and Lata but has somehow only been unfortunate to not get the same kinds of songs I switch off yet again! All these are real examples by the way. But I am not being dogmatic in stating it this way. There can be a discussion on anything. One can even question the merits or demerits of Hamlet. But one has to be serious about things. And certain discussions are just premised on the completely non-serious and should immediately be marked out as such. I refuse to play the game of politeness with anyone who is unintelligent enough to bring up certain discussions (not that I don’t often notice the partisan attitudes that prompt one to frame things in a certain way).
So yes let’s all show DEFERENCE to Amitabh Bachchan! One could do far far worse in life! On the evidence many find it easy to do that ‘far far worse’ every single day!
admiration .. love
Mr.Bachchan,
I’ve not been reading your posts regularly, as I’ve not been keeping good health. Good luck with PAA. I’m sure now that the Chopras have appreciated it, it will be a great hit.
Love you, Mr.Bachchan.
Sujata.
congrats Pawan ji for once again being no 1… Manoj maintains his 3rd position par Shankar is on the 22nd position today… Sounds like running commentery
but that’s way.. Can just be myself here with Sir and so many friends around… Lot of new names.. Day by day the list is increasing who waits impatiently for Sir’s update.. Awareness is increasing.. So is the Sir’s demand.. So good to know realise and feel the once angry young man is now the most popular sexy old man… Sir is the ever green hero and the heart throb of age ground ranging 6 to 60 and beyond..

I am a big fan of your 70-80s movies…..your voice is like listening to our own hearts. Bemisaal n jurmana are my all time favorite movies n I can’t resist myself to see them again if I get another chance.I respect jaya ji also. Actually what I truly feel…she is the lady who is behind you and her devotion is the base of the success of your family.
Kamna Garg

Dearest Amitji,
I read your blog and even before I watch I was visualizing what PAA would meant to me as I love my dad a lot and being a dad, its different feelings all together.. Definately the way the promo, the wordings are going on — This Paa movie will set a benchmark in the movie history… I am just waiting to get it released so that I can watch it with my family….
Can u please go to the doctor and check again why do u get so much of shoulder pain, may be is it because of too much exercise or weightlifting… Please take care of it… Also I just want to let u know that tooo many painkiller medicines are not good for health Amitji because it will slowly start killing the liver which is not good and also Painkiller medicines has many side effects which we arent aware of it.. I am telling you with my mothers experience… Please check up with the doctor again ok Amitji……
#1 Thanks Pawan for the compliment with my comments. Hope u are doing fine.
# 3 Manishbhai, as usual simply thankyou for being there and taking care of us… Yes it was chit and not cheat….. How are you doing my brother?
So mydear&near FmXt, let us rock this movie and watch the movie PAA very shortly.. Great to know Amitji, that Chopras gave good revewis about the movie and the act of yours and Abhishekji…

You’ve mentioned your new car. How is it ? How is your son and I bet you were over the moon by Mr Bachchan birthday wishes to Kavin..

Amit ji,
I’M VERY MUCH LOOKING FORWARD TO “PAA”, I WATCHED A DOCUMENTARY ON THE BBC A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO ABOUT THIS RARE GENETIC CONDITION CALLED “PROGERIA”. IT IS A DEVASTATING FOR A PARENT TO SEE THEIR CHILD SUFFER FROM THIS DISEASE. “PAA WILL BE A VERY INTERSTING FILM TO WATCH. IT IS DEFINITELY A FIRST FOR INDIA CINEMA AND WILL HOPEFULLY GAIN WORLD WIDE RECOGNITION.
HOPE THE SHOULDER GETS BETTER, SLEEP WELL.
LOTS OF LOVE (as always)
YOUR NO.1 FAN FROM UK

Dear Amitji,
Hope your shoulder is without any pain now, and “you carry your shoulder with a pride” as your “PAA ” movie got a great response from industry’s legend- Yashji. If he has admired your film, it has to be excellent- the person, legend in true sense to make variety of great films ,knows what is good and best and what is not.
Cannot wait to see the film. I have yet to get my timing to see Aladin. Even with a not great response, and also not a hit, I will dfinitely see it.
I am in teary eyes when you wrote about a song that you did regarding Nov 26th with Sonu Nigam.
love
Ashesh
# 97 - Srinivas,
I am well bhai. Hope you are also. I always scan for your comments and wonder where you if not in the top 10.
Hope work is good and fmaily more so.
PAA will be great to watch and will set the benchmark for many other films which were just a vision of a producer. Now, such films will be tackled and viewed more positively by the public. Bearing in mind, the Indian audience is changing rapidly. The demongraphic of cinema goers’ and their expectations also.
Love always,
Manish Parmar, UK.
yet to see Shankarbhai here ?
lots of wishes 4 ur up coming movie PAA. N cant comment on ALADIN coz havent seen it yet :-).

Hello Sir,
This is the first time that Im actually writing on this blog. I have been reading your blog and I dont have words to describe sir…u write so beautifully. Your choice of words is so correct. Apart from your films, Im an ardent fan of your writeups & your interviews too.
Im eagerly awaiting the release of PAA because I have been reading about all the hard work that you have put in every aspect of the character that you are portraying. Sir, PAA will break all the records and its going to be mind blowing film. The name PAA itself has so much of positive vibe. This will be the best movie of the deade.The movie is releasing on my birthday and Im sure this will be my best birthday gift, ever.First day, first show
Sir, Im a dubbing artist, just a year old in this profession. I wanted to share my experience with you. Few days back we were called for dubbing at B.R. Chopra Studio. This was my first time at BR. Sir, when i entered the dubbing room, my legs were shiverring, my body was cold, I hadd tears in my eyes. I just could not believe that Im in a room,in a place wherein someone as great as you would have walked in at some point of time, I would be dubbing on the microphone that you would have dubbed sometime during your movies. This whole feeling was so overwhelming, I just cant describe the happiness, joy and elation that I was going through. Happy and sad at the same time. Now Im always waiting for a call to dub in BR.
You are so right sir. Getting the correct tone, the exact emotion is so difficult with just a microphone and nothing else to support that scene. But you make make everything look so effortless though I so much of hardwork goes into it.
You find me little weird when it comes to my taste of your films. But sir I think you were amazing in Cheeni Kum. I mean it. You had so much of style, poise in your walk and every move that you did, it was amazing. I know most people say their favourite movies are amar akbar anthony or deewar, or agneepath. But I think Sholay and Cheeni kum were amazing. BLACK was of course the best.
Its my dream sir to become one of the industry’s best and most sought after dubbing artist and I need your blessings sir. I need you to bless me to be as dedicated, as sincere, as hardworking as consistent and last but not the least as rocking as you are sir
!!!
Thank you sir, for everything.
Your extended family…
Moushumi.
grateful ..
Pranam Amitji,
I started to read your blog recently and was so excited that now I am reading it from the beginning…
Good wishes for PAA….
Bye & take care of your health…
Hello sir,
I like this poetry which is written there on the starting of this page…
Sir Harivansh rai bachchan was a great poet,i like his poet “लहरों से डरकर नौका पार नहीं होती
हिम्मत करने वालों की हार नहीं होती।
नन्ही चींटी जब दाना लेकर चलती है,
चढ़ती दीवारों पर सौ बार फिसलती है,
मन का विश्वास रगों में साहस भरता है,
चढ़कर गिरना,गिरकर चढ़ना न अखरता है,
आखिर उसकी मेहनत बेकार नहीं होती ,
कोशिश करने वालों की हार नहीं होती।
डुबकियां सिंधु में गोताखोर लगाता है,
जा-जाकर खाली हाथ लौट आता है,
मिलते न सहेज के मोती पानी में,
बहता दूना उत्साह इसी हैरानी में,
मुठ्ठी उसकी खाली हर बार नहीं होती,
हिम्मत करने वालों की हार नहीं होती।
असफलता एक चुनौती है स्वीकार करो,
क्या कमी रह गयी,देखो और सुधार करो,
जब तक न सफल हो नींद चैन को त्यागो तुम,
संघर्षों का मैदान छोड़ मत भागो तुम,
कुछ किये बिना ही जय-जयकार नहीं होती,
हिम्मत करने वालों की हार नहीं होती। . from Madhushala .

Dear Lion King,
In the new genre of singer, Sonu Nigam is quite different and I like his voice.
Lets wait and watch the amalgamation of the geniuses.
Just a thought : I think we had a film like “PAA” in English based on the same subject and Robin William ( i think i am correct in recalling –Abhaya ji please check) had played the part of the boy. Sorry bad with films hence cannot place the name of the movie but it was an excellent movie. Is the film PAA is in the same story line?? Just a thought…
But must acknowledge that you are very good in marketing and creating a much required suspense for opening of any film. Yes, things have changed in past 40 years, I am sure a decade back , an actor was worried about the film’s success but had limited observation/role to play in promotion of a films. Now those are history and present approach would be history too in next 2 years. I thinks MMS would come for promotion or names/lines would be written in air on the clouds !!
#Pawan Pipalwa: I shall try to gather courage to come in the facebook, you see I am a very shy person
and most important my knowledge of films is very poor.Kudos to my dear Renate.

Dear Amitabh,
I’m so happy for you with the response to the promo for PAA. How wonderful that it looms large as a landmark film. It’s another one I’ll have to wait for until it comes out on DVD, but it will be something to look forward to …
I know about nighttime pain and how it can cut short your sleep. I hope it isn’t too difficult for you tonight.
I’m leaving in a few minutes for our local community center to pose for pictures with the others on our committee who have arranged food donations for the needy. The local paper prints the pictures to encourage others to donate and help those who have little or nothing during the holidays and other times. Our local food banks run out very quickly and need replenishing constantly. We had a Hallowe’en party Saturday night which helped bring in lots of canned goods for them.
My job is to play the piano at our parties and it was lots of fun the other night. Hard to think of spooky music, though … most of it is upbeat at the holidays. I played lots of things in minor keys …

PAA by R.Balki is going to be a very sensitive movie and is gonna struck a chord with the audience the same way Cheeni Kum did.The latter was such a refreshing and endearing movie.The sensitivity of the end product showed in Cheeni KUM will repeat itself in PAA.New ideas,beautiful treatment to screenplay,direction and acting has always been welcomed by cinema lovers..critics not withstanding.
All the best and my b’day wishes to Mrs.Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan.

My dearest and beloved Mr. Bachchan,
I feel so sorry this pain of your shoulder keeps appearing and resurfacing from time to time, and keeps in giving you restless nights, and it is great the anti-inflammatory medications were so helpful and worked well and rapidly. I hope there is one way or another to help getting this pain to disappear for good.
The website of the film ‘PAA’ has been showing some different and mysterious posters arousing and increasing our interest and curiosity towards the movie more and more, and I am waiting eagerly for the 4th for the unveiling of the final poster of the movie and also for the 5th and for the first appearance of the promo on the blog.
Iam deeply touched by these SMS you received, especially the first one and even I can’t wait to hear you saying ‘PAA’.
It is indeed delightful and very encouraging receiving these optimistic and positive responses about the promo from these expert people. Many congratulations…and I wish all success and prosperity to come your way.
Please don’t be guilty or sad for not being able to attend to the responses on the blog, or for the days 838485. we can certainly understand that you are busy these days with many things to attend to. And all the response won’t ‘disappear’ anywhere, they are here for you to attend when possible.
Have a fearless and pain free night,
And sleep well…
With my love,

Hello Sir,
You have the sincere blessings & best wishes of our countrymen…How can PAA be anything less than a stupendous success.
Whenever the strength of script has measured up to your talent, the film has been a hit….I watched Cheeni Kum 4 times yet felt numbed by your performance.
Plz don’t get ruffled by inane sms..wish we the fmxt get to meet you in person. How abt having a special screening of PAA for this extended family.

Dear Shankar, Manoj, Sharmila, Mondira, Sanjith, Srinivas, Lottus, Vijaya, Archana, Dr Anshu, Sonal, S Kh (USA), Vikas (Kuwait), Manish Parmar, Rochelle, valorie,Abhaya , Aishwarya,Pawan Pipalwa:
Must share this with you all. Today I saw Satyajit Ray’s Mahanayak. Well, the film was much ahead of its time and of course Satyajit Ray’s movie so has to be AMAZING. I got this DVD with English Sub titles, great script , fantastic picturisation and our Rinkudi was just fabulous. I loved Uttam Kumar in the movie and the best comment (my learning) in the film is about not just an actor but true for all , it says…(trying to translate) :
The day when you are satisfied with your performance..just remember you are finished.. the fact that one is very finicky about self is a good sign…it creates opportunity of growth.
This is actually true for the Mahanayak -Uttam Kumar, he was a different breed of actor. WoW, I am going to sleep with this thought which was, is and would be there with me till my last breadth. Why did I not see this film atleast 20 years back !! Atleast I would know that someone else had thought like me before this.
AMITABH :. the icon of bollywood.
what, no wishes for Guru Nanak’s Gurpurab?
Best wishes to all from this sardarni!!
May your shoulder pain disappear like magic, can’t wait for Aladdin!!
Urvashi.. Don’t get dishearten.. There’s always a day one.. Now that you got to know about the blog.. Do visit and welcome to this bhi family.. I take pride to welcome you to this big loving family.. Mousumi.. Another artist among us.. Great to know that even you are into this profession.. Let us know something more about your work dear.. AJ just missed out to say Hi to you dear.really sorry and no hard feelings.. Hope all’s well at your end.. God bless..Mondira. .
Amitaji,
so forth i never missed your blog….
Dear Mr. Bachchan,
I keep my fingers cross for your shoulder and hope tomorrow will bring you
a happy day and no pain ! You are a “big baby” and you can go over all
the pain with your great attitude !
For PAA, what can I say… I’m sure you will be great (sorry for covering
your superb face!) When Mr. Yash Chopra made such remarks, it is no doubt !
I rewatch Kaala Patthar last night ! Mr. Yash Chopra knows you better then any others directors. In this movie, he just have a little extra touch on you, and
Oh Boy, you are incredible beautiful (with just a black dust on your face and
the hair just uncombed !). The acting was excellent !
The success of any of your movie is not how you do, is how the others around you can keep the same level of work like yours !
I hope they did in PAA ! Waiting for promo !
May be we can find some video on you tube from today with you singing !
Your voice…..like everything with -SUPERB !
Now, already you had your sweet dreams !
I can wish you, just to have a wonderful day!
Love,
e.t.

Good evening Amitji,
.
Delighted to know that the echoes are good at first glance of Paa’s promotion and above all the opinion of a great professional of cinema as Yash Chopra, I am waiting and hoping to see this promo soon and make my modest opinion.
.
#112 Mousumi;
You means the movie Jack in 1996, but this child played by Robin Williams didn’t suffer of progeria, but another disease of aging, something like an accelerated growth, as a result he has an adult normal size . but progeria is an accelerated aging of cells and tissues without any real growth, so the size is the size of the child, but look to that of an elderly person, (I am not the best one who can explain this clearly using my poor English, so forgive me if it’s not clear). point of view of similarity in the scenario, only Mr Bachchan can reply since none of us has seen Paa yet.
# Renate & Pawan: Happy to know that you enjoy Aladdin and have always good time
# Hi to: JJ, Sudhir, Lottus, Reeham, Mondira, Valorie, Sharmishta, Arachna, Manoj, Shankar, Sharmila, Zainab…
#Dr Anshu: glad to see you commenting again!
# Aishwarya: where r u? no comment yesterday, hope everything is ok!

Enjoy life forever

CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THE PROMO AND MOVIE PAA!!!!
Hello,
Writing after many days, but did not miss reading the post even for a single day.
the two sms that u wrote in your post, awesome, it triggered some nerve in me which makes me feel like I want to see the film right away, but I guess I will have to wait for more than what others will wait.
My son Agastya is going to turn 7 months this 7th Nov, and these days we are teaching him to call Maa and Papa. Very sweetly he manages to call Maa and for Papa, all he can say is Pa. I am sure the way people are reacting to Paa, i think you have the same innocence in calling Paa as my 7 month old has, and that is what makes it more adorable.
Just to let you know, few of our friends had a movie night at our place yesterday and they watched Aladin. Everybody liked it. I loved all the scenes where you and Ritesh are doing some or the other mischief but I hated all the scenes where you looked helpless. BTW Sanjay Dutt was awesome. He came a long way. He is turning out to be a perfectionist himself now.
Take care and keep enjoying your work
Lily
Again a mistake…
it’s Manish and not Manoj Parmer…from UK.. Dear all this while have been typing your name wrongly.. 
am sorry.. Not my feeling are genuine i want to greet you and also congratulate you for being no 3 today in posting your comments.. Never the less.. I request you to plz ignore my mistake.. Assuring you it’ll not be repeated.. Sir i know when you read my post you find me too clumsy.. Often making mistakes either with spellings or names.. My friends have corrected me too but the improvemt is slow.. So am sure even you’ll ignore such mistakes in future.. Love Mondira.
Dear Amitji…its with cautious optimism that I await your new film. I LOVE you and AB jr as actors. You are both capable of extremely good acting and it is up to the director to use you both to your full potential and put it all together in a watchable package. Acting aside, there’s the music, editing, dialogue and what not that goes to make an engrossing movie. I think R Balki proved himself with Cheeni Kum (wonderfully handled movie that showcased your acting talent with subtle restraint). That’s why I can’t wait for Paa. I hope he has understood the moviegoer’s thinking, and at the same time done justice to the script, your acting capabilities, Abhishek’s capabilities and all the emotions that go between a father and a son. Never mind what the industrywallahs say…its people like us that must love the movie.
I wish you all and us all, best wishes for this movie.
Love
Shalu
Thank you Rani (140)
Mr AB I thought you were half punjabi.
#141 Mondira,
So Sorry,
hence I corected to myself not to miss anyone but to include ALL EF in
#116
I include ALL EF, sorry not to name only few and forget some.
It’s great to know that you’re getting positive feedback for PAA. Just one question, is it inspired by Robin Williams’ JACK by any chance? Because the story seems real similar.
Amitjeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Well what can i say, a few days ago i did say on your blog PAA is gonna be a stand out pix in your long line of land mark films. And you have just said now that Yash and Adi Chopra have been bowled over by what they have seen!!!!!!!!
Amitjeee we your EF know that with this film all those doubters will be eating dust, but Amitjee we know that you were the dil of Aladin, just wowwwwwwwwwwwww!
Now PAA is gonna blow everyone away inshallah, my prayers and duas with you always.
Warm Regards

Hi Mr. B. Love the promo for Paa! Can’t wait to see more even though I won’t see the movie itself for a while ( US distribution is slow). I love the musical score. It is so light and serious at the same time. Have you ever tried a TENS unit for the shoulder pain. Gotta watchg those anti inflammatory pills as they erode your stomach. Love, Mary Anne
Dear Amitabh Bachchan,
So happy to read the first responses to “Paa” promo by your colleagues ! Happy for you !
And thank you for sharing it here … Looks like it is going to be a truly sensational film …
Only a few days away is the chance for us to see the first promo !
I am eagerly waiting and I enjoy visiting the film’s official website for ‘clues’ and listening to the music… : )

Your shoulder problem will probably reoccur from time to time and I am sorry that you have pain to interfere with your night rest, but it is good that medication can keep it at bay not to interfere with your daily activities.
*
It is so important and meaningful that you gave your voice for the cause of commemorating 26/11 with other singers.. And I hope to hear the song some day too ..
*
I have to get going to continue with my day’s routine here - housework, chores, job …
The autumn weather is sunny but cold and there is the winter fragrance in the air …
I thank you for the joy of communicating with you and, please, do not worry and do not feel sad about not being able to reply to us .. You are writing every day wonderful and meaningful entries with love … It is much to be grateful for …
Please, take care of your health and have a good time working : )
God bless and take care.
My love and prayers.

This movie has something very important attached to it:
a message of life.
Watch out for it.
Never stop dreaming. This is one path to success. God bless.
Your post has pricked me with emotions today. My hands are trembling, my heart pouding hard as I write in response to your post.
My comment today is my first conversation with Auro and wanted to share with you and all the FmXts:
Dear Auro,
It has only been 3 days that I first saw you and ever since you have walked into my life a different energy has taken my heart and mind away. I can’t believe I am talking to a reel character or are you for real?
There is something about those fascinating two eyes (or should I say 4) peeping through the yellow box ready to unveil a spirit that is going to inspire me to change the way I think about life and relationships forever.
I am loving the mystery that surrounds those eyes. A sense of quiet secrecy dances within them. Just by watching you inside the box, I wonder what you are thinking, what thoughts are floating just behind those glistening eyes? Are those eyes of a pure soul struggling to be heard?
It makes me wonder what your story is going to be? Does your tale’s emotional heart lie in the tragic variation of the Ugly Duckling story or do you represent the unfulfilled potential of all those who feel repressed by society’s norms. Is it going to be about an unforgiving shadow with whom fate played a bad trick on? Or is it going to be about choosing to create your own fate? Is your story about belonging or about betrayal? Are you going to make me laugh, sing and dance? Or you are going to make me cry?
No matter how outlandish you are going to be, No matter how unconventional you would be to the ordinary society, I am here to embrace you with all your graciousness. I am waiting for your overwhelming story of love, compassion, courage and humanity.
With Endless love
best wishes for PAA!
Dear Mr. AB,
Glad to hear the shoulder pain subsided even if only with the help of drugs and you were able to exercise. I hope you have a calm and restful sleep while I write this.
26/11 will not be forgotten and it is good that you participate in a song about it. Please send it around the world, we all need to remember.
And here’s my promise - I shall try to gather as many people as I can to join me in seeing Paa. So Pawan, when we’ll meet again at the theater (we shall, won’t we?) this time hopefully we shall have an entourage. Those SMSs promise a great success.
But please Mr. AB, do not feel guilty for not having more time to respond. You are here, that’s all that counts.
Love,
Renate
hey AJ.. Great idea.. My friend.. Am sure the rest also feels so.. We can also help or be instrumental in promoting PAA… In a way we all together can this way give a gift to Sir.. Physically.. He can’t return back or give it to someone else to keep it aside.. Sir’ll not have option but to accept our love this way.. So let’s make it big together? that say? Valorie is too good at it.. Ma’am plz take charge.. Plz.. Thik aache?? She gave a small demo on sir’s birthday.. need polling on the same.. Great gread AL.. Mousumi… Uttam Kumar, mara giye uni amar manuser mone.. Bhalobashaye.. All bengalies love him..he’s one of those great actors whose work has kept bengali films alive today also.. A man who lived a royal life and never cared about the media.. He belived in one life and lived happily.. An actor who competed who fited into all kind of roles.. Just one character that he never played is that of Phelu Mitter, commonly know as Phelu da of Satyajit Roy.. Are you based out of Kolkata?? You are one you those bengalies who’s ready to accept the goodness of past in the present as learning for building a better future.. My best short was when he dreamt of drowning in the heap of money, currency note… Did you see Pathdr Pachali and Apuer Sanshar of Satyajit Roy?? If not then it’s a must see.. In case you don’t have it let me know i’ll give you.. Also try and listen to the casset Priyo Bondhu by Anjan Dutta.. For all those who understands bengali you’ll can try out this casset, in case if you have not hear it, till now.. Lovely.. It’ll bring tear to your eyes, it’s very very touchy and emotional..Hey did you read Abol Tabol by Sukumar Roy.. Satyajit Roy’s father.. That’s also a must read..
Dear BigB!
Congrats on promo and upcoming release of PAA!
Please update us on your pedometer score

hey.. Just got to sleep now can’t keep my eyes open.. Will catch up tomorrow.. Bye friends.. Long live big adda, long live the blog and long live the man.. Muaahhh.. Love always Mondira.
Amitji,
You haven’t said anything about the films that you plan to shoot for in the future! I know about the films awaiting release but what about new films? Has no script interested you enough to give your nod? What about ” Chenab Gandhi” ? Thankfully , you have a few films lined up for release that will hopefully take us through the first half of 2010 ( Johnny Mastana will probably release by then) but after that?
Thanks,
Satish.
Dear Sir,
Is the project on wherein you play the role of legendary Satyajit Ray and the story revolves around his so-called love affair with actress Madhabi Mukherjee? Rituparno Ghosh may be a good film maker but I think he should not do this.He will be degrading Satyajit Ray in the eyes of his innumerable fans and despite your superlative performance , people who admire Satyajit Ray (Manik Babu) will not accept you. I respect you and wish to continue respecting you for your personality and performance.With warm regards,
Bhaskar Chakravorti (Khartoum,Sudan).
“today” is another day…have a lovely day!
Dear Amitji,
i had thoroughly enjoyed watcing director Balki’s Cheeni Kum and am looking forward to watchin you in PAA.
Take care
Ashwin
I am sorry to read that your shoulder pain came back in the middle of the night but looks like the anti inflammatory did the trick but please take it easy, Sir.
And sounds like you enjoyed taking part in another song of togetherness to applaud the independence and to remember those who lost their lives defending the freedom on that grave 26/11/2008 day. When will we get to buy this recording and the one done at the Taj?
To receive strong thumbs up from the Chopra camp must be the highest seal of approval and one to be proud of and feel good about the efforts you and the crew have put in on the making of PAA. The PAA momentum is gaining its strength. The two SMS’s you received were further endorsements of good positive and uplifting comments. Am eagerly waiting to see the PAA promos on this blog on the 5th NOV.
Hope you are having a restful pain free sleep.
Best Wishes

Neeraj Tiwari
i feel closer to you like this …
Sorry, Satinder of course
Dearest Mr Bachchan
This is almost bringing tears of joy and happiness to my eyes… just learning that the early reactions to the promo of Paa have been so overwhelming. One thing has been clear from the outset… that this was a very courageous but almost insanely ambitious venture… one that would stretch the film makers - technically and emotionally to their very limits. One that would place exceptional demands on everyone involved, and above all on you… both in terms of enduring the prosthetics but above all inhabiting a role that was probably the most testing that an actor could face.
And also a film that could well challenge audiences, to accept the emotionally complex and potentially harrowing subject matter.
So I have always believed that even if the film should fail, it would always be the most honourable failure, one that might occur in the attempt to do something most brave and wonderful.
And if it succeeds, as I have so fervently hoped it will, how much sweeter, how much more cherished and deserved this will be. And my only measure for success will be the artistic and emotional impact of the film, and the strength of the reaction by the audience that goes to see it.
If the film is good, great, remarkable, inspiring, ground breaking… then of course it deserves a mass audience. But marketing something that dares to different, that breaks the conventional rules… that is in one sense its unique selling point but also a great challenge, when faced with ‘mass’ audiences and ‘popular’ taste…. taste which is sometimes for the familiar and mediocre. So I am extremely glad that every scintilla of ingenuity is being used to develop the best strategy. Win or lose at the box office, the only really noble fight is to make the best possible film and then let history decide. And I am so looking forward to this historic piece of film making finally being released next month.
With all my love, Daisy
And by success, the
Dear AB,
This your post is surely calming. Adi’s SMS has brought that peculier joy and energy. True emotion and expression of it has indeed capacity to bring that unpoluted energy to brain. Right communication can do wonder and it seems Paa’s marketing is going in that direction.
Dear Mr. Bachchan
I keep telling you I can get you an appointment with one of the best Pain Specialist but you do not listen. My question is, why are you pushing iron at the gym if you are suffering from shoulder pain….you are only aggravating it. Better stop advising before you get irritated.
Glad to know that PAA is getting good response after the promos. Wishing you all the best and hope you got a good night sleep. Have a great morning……

Namaskaar Amitji,
Do take care of yourself…please.
I hope your pains and discomfort will completely disappear.
Lots of love,
Leela
Amitji, I cannot wait to see PAA. It sounds like an excellent movie. Whatever it may draw at the box office does not bother me, as I will watch all your movies as I have done in the past.
Take care, as your shoulder seems to be playing up again and again.
Regards to you and the Bachchan Family.

I think it amazing that God has given us the gift of song and that from so many voices.
Just imagine what it sounds like when the angels sing for him.
I am so sorry that your shoulder continues to pain you. And yet, you persevere.
As you lend your voice to share with others I trust that you will continue on in good health.
Hi Mondira
Thank You and please invite everyone to be with us
The info you shared brought memories back, voww… Thank You
Hello Amitabh,
I hope Aishwarya had an enjoyable lovely birthday. They were showing her films on the Indian channel on November 1st as well as an Amitabh film the night before (shanivar ki raat Amitabh ke saath!) - an old film called Manzil. There is a gap in my life where i have missed out on many many films of my favourite people! My most favourite starts with Jaya! She is the most incredible and the most beautiful. Everyone attached to her has become my favourite! (sort of just kidding!).
Hope your shoulder feels better and the excitement for Paa continues to grow. Everyone knows a lot about it already. Where do they get all this information from? I seem to live my life on limited time. So I shall wait patiently till i can see more. Whether a movie of yours does well or not that well at the “box office” it doesn’t matter. You never fail to do your part. So the message you received “…Today you touched me. Today the way i heard you say PAA still rings in my ear. Today I feel like calling my Dad … Paa. Thank you for this.’..” that is always the case. With your every movie.
Thanks Amitabh!
Dear Amitji,
Please don’t ever feel guilty about not being able to reply to our messages. The fact that you are able to connect with us on a daily basis, despite your hectic schedule, is more than enough for us.
I am so happy to read the wonderful responses you have received on the promos of Paa. Congratulations! From the little that I know of the story, I feel that it is very unique and will certainly set a new benchmark within the industry. I really love your acting Mr Bachchan and know that you will inspire us in this movie. So looking forward to its release!
Have a great day sir and I hope your shoulder pain subsides quickly.
Lots of love!
AMIT JI, NAMASHKAR
PLEASE TAKE CARE AND DO SOME SHOULDER EXERCISES UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF PHYSIO-THERAPIST. LOVE U LOTS!!!
MY DEAR JASMINE JAYWANT,
A BIG HUG TO YOU!!!
HAPPY GURU PURAB TO YOU TOO DEAR.
FOR RESHMI P, A BIG HI TO YOU AND PLEASE CONVEY MY BIRTHDAY WISHES TO YOUR DEAREST MOTHER. MAY GOD BLESS HER. AMEN.
My dearest Mr. Bachchan,
I am so sorry to hear that menacing pain returned yet again. Along with the pain, the frequent recurrences are worrying and must be so disheartening for you; I sincerely hope it will relinquish soon. I wonder if the intensity of the labour associated with dubbing for ‘Paa’ put you in an awkward posture and irritated the strain. The thought crossed my mind when reading your explanation of the procedure yesterday; but of course it must be done.
Clearly these anti-inflammatorys are not treating the issue, yes they are a quick fix option but are so detrimental to your poor organs! The Yoga, and the gym however is wonderful to hear, it has been a while since you have reported a visit there. Albeit I am surprised to hear the inclusion of pushing iron in your regime, with a shoulder strain - please take care Mr. Bachchan.
I loved your pretty description of chasing images on the treadmill, you do breathe a new lease of life into otherwise mundane activates!
Arrived home very late from my afternoon off and ‘Aladin‘ - annoyingly the underground train was stuck in a tunnel for over an hour and delayed everything!
Nevertheless, it was worth it you know I am ecstatically impressed with the film from the very start. The moment the magical quill pen hovered over the olde worlde map and lured us into ’Khwaish’ I digressed into wide eyed and adventure hungry little girl again! It was a visual delight, I fell in love with the settings and special effects tease the imagination into believing there is magic in every nook of the place.
Ritesh, Jacqueline and the co actors did a great job with comedy in the early scenes; but your vicarious entrance was the boost the early part of the film required! I don’t know how anyone can fault your performance, you provide the full spectrum emotion, action, comedy, romance and dance demonstrating each with your usual flawlessness. From the hilariously sarcastic and crabby Genuis who emerges from the lamp you mellow as you warm to your ‘project’, then you deliver the romance with the comedy as Aladin wins Jasmine and of course we are all accustomed to you in fighting action during the shown down near the end. This film is a wonderful tribute to your unsurpassed versatility!
The promo’s help. I had envisaged the beautiful Romeo and Juliet type balcony scene around ‘You may be’ may just be my favourite and that it was. To see it on the big screen with you lip synching and crooning with such conviction was quite, quite a distraction and yes, the couple were a little insignificant!
Your dialogue and manner of speaking to Ritesh preceding the song (and through all early scenes in general) had me I hysterics. Your comedy timing and expressions are perfect and leave uncontrollable laughter long after the scene has passed.
Another favourite is when Genius makes his true acquaintance with Aladin when we discover his bheja really is khali! The initial power battle between child protagonist and ‘ethereal helper’ was for me reminiscent of the early scenes in ‘Bhoothnath’ when the little boy wanted him to leave his home and all manner of strange objects were flying around the room with the conflict - they were both very funny scenes. The machinations of an authentic, classic fairytale were all present here. It’s a pity these critics do not allow the child within them, out to play once in a while - they would be less cynical if so!!
All songs and dances were a charming feature, again the way you manoeuvre with such ease and fluidity, you shame your colleagues. And to set the record straight, your look was extremely appealing. The long hair really suited you and your costumes were barely outlandish that white suit, the jean’s and black jacket were decent. I do wonder how the critics found fault with you and not Sanjay’s very overdone look!?! I fail to see how that is disregarded while you are picked on..!
It was nice to be able to recognise scenes from photographs you had posted on the blog during filming many months ago and place them in context: you running in the white suit was not towards a bunch of keys but towards Sanjay, the dance with Jacqueline to ‘O re Sawaryia’ was very nice and funny. I could continue for pages, but suffice to say I thoroughly enjoyed the film and the Genius has won pride of place in my heart! Thank you for the entertainment and to quote Barkha Dutt, ‘may you continue to light up our imaginations‘!
Delighted to read the early reactions to ’Paa’, that sms is beautiful, so heartfelt!! I know you must have surpassed yourself in this role, the work has been extensive over the months and even quite damaging for your skin and all - but it will be more than worth it. I look forward to the promos on the 5th and the film too is eagerly anticipated by all! Even the media are scrabbling around to no avail trying to piece information together from your blog. The poster and website made it to some electronic articles today!
This must be a very tense for period you and you have had a very busy day. I sincerely hope a good nights sleep is achieved tonight. I will return to the rest of the post in the morrow, but hope your shoulder pain has gone without trace by then.
Goodnight Mr. Bachchan breathe easily, sleep peacefully and take care until the morrow.
All my love,
Jasmine

Dear Mr. Bachchan,
Each movie must be a labor of love for all involved. Unless they are making a film only with the BO returns in mind . A good movie is a good movie is a good movie.Sometimes though not all good movies get the mass appreciation and accolades they deserve . The opposite is true too. The public can be very fickle-minded. They can be indifferent to a Aaja Nachle and flock to a Gol Maal Returns ( I couldn’t watch this movie beyond the first few minutes) .Then they surprise everyone and rave about a Black Friday or a Gulaal . One never knows which way the cookie will crumble.
Looking forward to watching Paa . This time I ” shan’t ” wait for dvd release.
Recd a nice message today on Guru Nanak Jayanti ; sukh vele shukraney,dukh vele ardas,har vele simran………
Much love.
# 88 / 147 - Mondira,
It’s ok. There are many people here, the fact that you’re always respectful and courteous to me is more important. Seems like you like your sleep.
Love always,
Manish Parmar, UK.
My beloved Maharaj,
The pain which shows up regularly causes me worry. And you keeping it under control through drugs does not help me feel better either. The jotted down schedule made me tired even by just reading it. You are busy and that fulfills you I know, but please please do take utmost care of yourself.
Glad to hear the excitement about PAA. It will do well and set a new benchmark I am sure.
Today is a very painful day for me Mr. Bachchan. I share with you, as promised, this 3rd of November, the most painful experience of my life. In 2006 my little unborn son, Rishon Rico D’Penha left for his heavenly abode as a baby in my womb. After 9 wonderful months of pregnancy, Rishon chose to be God’s own precious angel. Our little baby boy died due to fetal distress that arose due to an error by my gynaecologist. At 42 weeks´Gestation my doc chose to wait for natural labour pain instead of a caesarean which ultimately led to our healthy baby boy dying due to suffocation. To add to our tragic loss I nearly lost my life after giving birth to our son, but life had other plans for me. I survived and only moved on to be stronger than before. I am pained as I share this very personal part of my life with you and all here, but at the same time I would also like to thank God for the strength He has blessed my husband and myself to bear the loss of our only beloved son and move on in life. Through our painful experience we have become a source of courage and hope for many around us, as we chose to leave bitterness out of our lives and move on and make the best of what we have. Strangely, life has improved in a very mysterious way since the loss of our son and my husband always tells me it is our own personal angel who is guiding our path for us! It gives us comfort and peace to know he is in a safer place and no harm shall ever befall him. One seeks solace in these thoughts and being lovers of LIFE, we have chosen to live our lives with gratitude and make the best of all the goodness God showers upon us. When God closes the door, he opens a window……This has proven so true for us, but one can only see the open window if you choose to turn towards the light and we are glad we chose to do so. May Rishon Rico’s beautiful soul rest in peace.
I do hope you now understand why I was so pained by the surrogacy topic. I personally would never see that as an option for us, but I am sure there are thousands of couples who have been through unending trials in their lives for the want of a child and resort to surrogacy as a last alternative.
I request you and all of our EF to pray for Rishon’s precious soul. I am terribly sorry if I caused you pain through this sharing.
Love and sorrow-Lily D’Penha-Frankfurt-Germany.
I am sorry to say this but Zibbu at 60 & 85 is so fake as he always is. Annoying as hell Zibbu!Please stop the drum.
# 126 - Srinivas,
I’m ok bhai. Still job hunting but with no luck. Feel jobless more so hopeless.
Achieving No.1 position is great however please do not place too much emphasis on it. I strongly doubt I would be anywhere on top had it not been for my current situation. Anyway, it’s not greedy but perhaps it’s our competitive nature. It exists in us all.
Just remain here. Don’t go anywhere. As long as we / I see your comments I know / feel your presence and this is comforting. This is all we / I ask.
Love always, you cowboy - yeeehhhhhaaaa ..

AB dearest
tell us the release Date of Paa. Looks like there’s a great product waiting to unfold. And I can’t wait.
Well, another landmark is THIS IS IT. Please grab a chance to have a look at the greatest artiste of our times rehearse for what he thought would be seen by a few million people going for his concert. But God had other plans. The world had to see him perform. Watching him putting his sweat and blood and soul into his music made me cry like never before.
Please AB. watch it. And give your views.
Love

My Dear Mr Bachchan
Sorry to hear about the re-appearance of your pain,but glad the anti inflammatory has given you relief and allowed you to have your sleep.
It’s lovely to know you and Sonu Nigam(two GREATS) are coming together in a song.Only the other day i was watching one of his concert (on DVD) that he did in the UK with an english orchestra. I think it was in memory of Mohammed Rafi.I really enjoyed it.
Regarding ‘PAA’ i visited the website( http://www.paathefilm.com) i just loved the music and looking forward for the promo on the 5th…Thank you very much.
Good Luck! for ‘PAA’.
It was a pleasure reading those sms….wonderful.Thanks for updating us on all the happenings.
Have a Great Day…Please take care!
May God always Bless and Protect You,Your wonderful Family and all Dear FmXt

Hi Amitji:
Just watched a segment of ‘Bigg Boss’, and I was really moved by your gesture to get Sherlyn and her mom to reconcile. Your concern seemed so genuine and you seemed so human, just like any other grandfather. I really respect you even more now. I just hope that with your blessings Sherlyn’s problems are resolved and she lives happily with her family!
Love you and may your family also be happy forever!!!!
With love
from Canada
Hi
I know you are busy and have lot of work in hand but its sad to know that either you are not reading the blog posts or you have ignored to wish all of us on Guru Purab. Knowing your religion from maternal side I am a bit more surprised.
love
Naresh Kapoor
Take care of your shoulder, the pain can be quite frustrating at times. Am facing the very same since about a fortnight,eventually dragged myself to the orho. yesterday, and will have to start physiotherapy and medication from today.Normally avoid taking medicines as much as possible but this time there seems to be little choice.
PAA promos look interesting. All the best for the success of the film. Have not seen ‘Aladin’ as yet but intend to do so this week.
Regards as always,
Nandita.
Request you to please change the photograph and the poll question.

sorry to hear about your son. hope he feels better .hope its not H1N1. everywhere its the same story ! its Flu season !we had very bad last 10days for same reason.
Sir,
I love the ‘Introducing Amitabh Bachchan’ bit in the poster. Very innovative and very cute.
On a separate note, do you think by sharing the thoughts of the film fraternity on the promo and preview show of a new movie, you also inadvertently raise the expectations of us the fans and the public in general?
With respect,

G’morning, I am told that when any part of the body is under stress, excercise of any form is to be avoided. I guess yoga and the treadmill are permissible, but not pumping the iron.
PAA, does seem to generate a sense of mystery. It seems the person hidden under the carton is you, as is evident from the fingers and the hands… the only doubt being the absence of your famous rings… but I guess that is a conscious decision.
I have described my for appreciation for Aladin in my post last night, and hope you have read it.
We need to see a different face on the blog as also either a new poll question or none at all.
my affection as ever and enjoy the day.
Hello Amit Uncle,
I hope your shoulder will be fine soon.. I am big fan of yours and this is kind of heredity in me from my father.. I hope your will be fine and healthy again.. I am in USA but still i dont miss any of the episodeds from the big boss. but the episodes i like the most are of the fridays and saturdays as i get to hear something from you.. You always say something which becomes inspiration to me. I read your blogs regularly but first time writing a reply i hope you will read it…
Love from me and my family

Your sincere thoughts are highly appreciated
Yes let history decide
while we do our part …
Dear Amitji, Good Morning. Nice to hear abour Paa and the sms’s you posted about Paa’s initial reactions. It is like checking one grain of rice by the expert that the rice has cooked. It indicates condition of complete pot of rice. There is always a candid opinion of a close friend which is beyond opinions of critics. I believe in that opinion. Even in my field I have close confidant friends who are my old coleagues when we were doing jobs together in same company today we are in similar business and technically competetors but still on personal level we consult each other before putting our eggs in the Market Baskets.
The efforts you mention about 26/11 by Sonu Nigam and many others is a volunteer action from the heart. It will certainly help the cause of national integration. Bullets do destroy lives but many times unite the others left behind. The cause and effect equation in such cases is never understood by the short-sighted brains of the perpetrators of violence.
Your shoulder carries lots of load and must be paining for that reason. Looks Paaji is overloaded with responsibilities. A good sign. A challenge to those who write about your retirement. Use some pain-killers for the opinion-mills also. There are many who give you pain in the heart. Give them your blessings and they shall also feel your charisma.
The effort you put for Paa will bear dividents. History is created by ordinary people who work in extra-ordinary ways. The maverick in eyes of others is actually a self propelled hard worker. You worked hard on Paa make up and prosthetics now is the time to rest in laurels. Money is a by-product of success. It will always follow genuine effort. My faith in my capability is the seed of my success.
Have a nice day and keep anxiety at bay. My regards to those whose opinion changes common man’s thinking. Those who are true to their word while giving opinion. Regards to those who don’t sell their opinion and hence their words have superior value.
Ravi P(aa) Malhotra
Dear Sir, Happy Gurpurab to you and your mom’s side of the family as well especially your Maasi who gave you that necklace few days back.
May PAA rocks and shoulder pain DISAPPEAR, DISAPPER
Love and Regards always
#140 Rani. Happy Gurpurab. When I was in grade school in New Delhi, we used to get up at 4.00 a.m. and dance with the jalsa all the way till 7.00 am and all the way to Gurudwara. Thanks for bringing back the beautiful memories.

Lily, dearest Lily, what a heartbreaking story! You, the bright spirit of love and joy, had to go through an experience like this! You know I don’t pray, but I cry for you and wish you and your husband all the best and your own baby to hold in due time.
With love and comfort,
Renate
Dear Amitji,
Just that ALADIN is over now we eagerly wait for PAA. From the initial posts it looks like a great movie. Let’s hope and wish that PAA becomes a MEGA HIT and critics bite the dust!! ALL GOOD LUCK and all THE BEST.

Dear Lion King,
When I saw another pic of the promo for Paa there was a twang in my heart. The pictures make me feel very melancholic, to the point of crying. I think I will be overcome with this one like the way our acting in Black took over me for a few days at a very emotional level. A haunting feeling where I kept replaying certain scenes in my mind over and over. Likewise, I have not been able to get the Paa pictures out of my head. I think I know what is in store, I watched Brad Pitt in the curious case of Benjamin Button and I was not astounded but now when I know that Paa will be a bit similar, I am in for a long haul simply because you are Auro. I know I will be melancholic for a long time as this movie is going to have a mega effect on my sense and sensibility. The greatest performer of all times donning this role as Auro and speaking in the voice of a 12 year old, born old and living to grow young is going to strike a chord amongst millions. Not to say that the ones who truly love you are likely to be very affected by this movie and it is likely to go down the annals of cinema as your best performance. This movie is going to surprise the Indian audience completely, each one of your fiercest critic is also in for an emotional roller coaster ride. As this movie will play on all our minds, even the critics will heed to their conscience for a change. I am sure of it.
The few pictures I saw have not left me wondering about the prosthetics involved at all. In appears you have evolved in the most natural biological way into the character and that is the marvel of it all. It has left me spellbound. Spellbound to the hilt. Auro is as real as Amitabh Bachchan is. I never felt this way before with the exception of Don, where I gave you my reasons as a seven year old why I thought you are God. But this time, as a mature individual ( despite having the same emotions of the same seven year old towards you) you have taken me to another plane where I see you now as Auro. If the few pictures of the promo have had this effect on me, I shudder to think what the movie will do to me.
My admiration for you continues to ever grow. In all honesty not because I am your fan I say this, but I would even I were a journalist or a pestering political figure.I say this, true to my heart and soul -
Mr Bachchan you are immortal.
I bow my head down to you and of course I would kiss your hands…

My previous comment ( 206 ) should read ” your acting in Black” and not “our acting in Black”. A big mistake. Sorry!
Respected Amitji,
Let me first express my disappointment and dismay at not being able to post an early comment. I am one of those who hits the pillow early and gets sleep instantaneously. No major aches and pains as for now. At 50 maybe I have a few more years to passby without some of these ailments.
PA is eagerly awaited by one and all. You and Abhishek together will lend that special “extra” bit to the film. The message that you have posted is a very touching one and has a spontaneity to it …the person who sent it meant every word of it.PA will prove to be a landmark film. Best wishes to you as always …
Regards
Shubha
Amitji,
I loved the Background music on PAA website..just Awesome…Just had a thought…Why not see if you can have a premiere..done in 3 locations over the week if possible or have promotions started 2 weeks before the movie releases to have word out..Mumbai, London, US..I have seen it done a few times recently..Where stars have attended the Local cinemas to product their movie..moreso with PAA as its your own Home Production…just a suggestion
Guys and Gals here, we should all be attending PAA screenings at the cinema..lets make this the biggest hit of the year….
All the best always
Hope the Shoulder doesnt cause you any more probs

Dear Lion King,
Forgive me for getting so carried away with your movie that I failed to express my sympathy for the nagging pain you continue to suffer in. I hope you get the well deserved rest and you need one rather soon. A bit of quiet time is what you need.
Thank you for always staying in touch with us and waiting to hear your voice and see you in “mile sur” and the newer one with Sonu Nigam.

Mr. Bachchan,
It’s so very cool that Adi and Yash Chopra have really liked the promo for Paa. I’m glad its being appreciated. I can’t wait to see the promo and hope it bodes well for the film. But I can’t help but say the marketing and promotions need to be stepped up for the film. I know I sound like a broken record. But your recent films have been badly promoted including Sarkar Raj and Aladin. I was disappointed at how shabbily those two films were promoted. Better promotion and a broader reach could have done wonders did those films. There is no need to work hard and do good films if they are not promoted the right way to bring in the crowd.
Good marketing and promotions for films are very important all films. It does not matter if the film is low budget or high budget. Exciting marketing and promotions are needed. The general audience are very preoccupied with their hectic lives and now only venture out to see films that they think are exciting or well made family oriented films. But for the audience to do that there has to buzz or energy surrounding a film. Films have to have a broad reach or have a multiplex appeal to be hits at the box office. It does not matter how good a film is or how well made it is if the general audience is unaware of the film or even unaware about its release. Other films that are releasing next year are already being more in focus and talked about with the media. Paa also needs to be a more talked about film with the media. Realistically Paa’s promotions should have begun at the beginning of October that would have given the film 2 full months of promotions. The first look, posters, stills, articles to electronic media, music launch, and teaser should have been done at that time. Then the official website should have been launched during this month. And that should have kicked off the other more intense promotions during the last month before the film’s release.
Balki could have been doing promotions in the absence of yourself and Abhi as well. Where’s Vidya Balan? Vidya is a popular and talented young actress. She is playing Abhi’s leading lady in the film. Why has she not been doing promotions for the film. In your and Abhi’s absence Vidya should have been doing some promotions for the film. Vidya should be out doing promotions now. This would have given the film more buzz and made the people in India and abroad more aware of the film, the cast, etc. A film like Paa needs buzz. It needs more than the angle of Abhi playing the role of Paa in the film. That is only a hook. But to interest all of India and elsewhere there needs to be better marketing and promotions. Even though Paa is a small film it will need a very good first week collections to give the film a chance of becoming a success. Promotions can help well made films have stamina at the box office which is what this film will need to go on to be a success. So want to see promotions stepped up. I have been look forward to this film a long time and want it to do its best when released? Good luck and best wishes for Paa!
Best wishes!!
Amit ji, the reactions to Paa are just too good..and this is just to the promos! Cant wait to see it! I hope the movie does really well
please stop worrying about responding to 83,84,85.Your health and well being matters more to us than any reply!
PAA WILL BE MINDBLOWING.
U WILL GOING TO ACHEIVE THE maxm height ever possible.

Interview With God
I dreamed I had an interview with God.
“So you would like to interview me?” God asked
“If you have the time” I said.
God smiled
“My time is eternity”
“What questions do you have in mind for me?”
“What surprises you most about humankind?…”
God answered…
“That they get bored with childhood.
They rush to grow up and then
long to be children again.”
“That they lose their health to make money
and then lose their money to restore their health.”
“That by thinking anxiously about the future,
they forget the present,
such that they live in neither
the present nor the future.”
That they live as if they will never die,
and die as if they had never lived.”
God’s hand took mine
and we were silent for awhile
And then I asked…
“As a parent, what are some of life’s lessons
you want your children to learn?”
God replied with a smile
“To learn they cannot make anyone love them.
What they can do is let themselves be loved.”
“To learn that it is not good
to compare themselves to others.”
“To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most,
but is one who needs the least.”
“To learn that it only takes a few seconds
to open profound wounds in persons we love,
and it takes many years to heal them.”
“To learn to forgive by
practicing forgiveness.”
“To learn that there are persons who love them dearly,
but simply do not know how to express or show
their feelings.”
“To learn that two people
can look at the same thing
and see it differently.”
“To learn that it is not always enough that they
be forgiven by others. But that they must
forgive themselves.”
“And to learn that I am here always.”
Dear Amitji
It has tooo huge success ” PAA” ,,, best wishes always with you…. Please take care
Kind Regards
Take care

Aishwarya Bachchan is now taking interest in resurrecting ABCL (AB Corp) and helping out with the marketing and promotion of Amitabh Bachchan’s forthcoming film, Paa.
She wants Paa to do really well as it stars Amitabh and her hubby Abhishek Bachchan. She is taking all the marketing decisions related to the film and also has a say on how to promote the film. Her ideas are appreciated by the Bachchans.
Paa has a different story with Abhishek playing Amitabh’s dad. To make the film a commercial success, various strategies are being made. Aishwarya has also suggested a lot that they could do to promote the film.
Paa will be released in a month’s time

That is an excellent news. Half job done.
ShubhRelease 
We waiting to watch promos. Best-Wishes.
I hope you’ll bear with my long poem today.
Trost in Tränen - Comfort in Tears
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Wie kommts, daß du so traurig bist,
Da alles froh erscheint?
Man sieht dirs an den Augen an,
Gewiß du hast geweint.
…. How happens it that thou art sad,
…. While happy all appear?
…. Thine eye proclaims too well that thou
…. Hast wept full many a tear.
“Und hab ich einsam auch geweint,
So ists mein eigner Schmerz,
Und Tränen fließen gar so süß,
Erleichtern mir das Herz.”
…. “If I have wept in solitude,
…. None other shares my grief,
…. And tears to me sweet balsam are,
…. And give my heart relief.”
Die frohen Freunde laden dich,
O komm an unsre Brust!
Und was du auch verloren hast,
Vertraue den Verlust.
…. Thy happy friends invite thee now,
…. Oh come, then, to our breast!
…. And let the loss thou hast sustain’d
…. Be there to us confess’d!
“Ihr lärmt und rauscht und ahnet nicht,
Was mich, den Armen, quält.
Ach nein, verloren hab ichs nicht,
So sehr es mir auch fehlt.”
…. “Ye shout, torment me, knowing not
…. What ’tis afflicteth me;
…. Ah no! I have sustained no loss,
…. Whate’er may wanting be.”
So raffe denn dich eilig auf,
Du bist ein junges Blut,
In deinen Jahren hat man Kraft
Und zum Erwerben Mut.
…. If so it is, arise in haste!
…. Thou’rt young and full of life.
…. At years like thine, man’s blest with strength.
…. And courage for the strife.
“Ach nein , erwerben kann ichs nicht,
Es steht mir gar zu fern.
Es weilt so hoch, es blinkt so schön,
Wie droben jener Stern.”
…. “Ah no! in vain ‘twould be to strive,
…. The thing I seek is far;
…. It dwells as high, it gleams as fair
…. As yonder glitt’ring star.”
Die Sterne , die begehrt man nicht,
Man freut sich ihrer Pracht,
Und mit Entzücken blickt man auf
In jeder heitern Nacht.
…. The stars we never long to clasp,
…. We revel in their light,
…. And with enchantment upward gaze,
…. Each clear and radiant night.
“Und mit Entzücken blick ich auf,
So manchen lieben Tag;
Verweinen laßt die Nächte mich,
So lang ich weinen mag.”
…. “And I with rapture upward gaze,
…. On many a blissful day;
…. Then let me pass the night in tears,
…. Till tears are wip’d away!
Love,
Renate
Dear Sir,
PAA, now most awaited film of this year. Nice to see “Introducing Amitabh Bachchan” who spend 40 years in film world ……….
ALL THE BEST FOR PAA….
Regards with love light and reiki

All the very best for “PAA”…..am sure this is going to be a landmark film…
Dear Amit ji,
I am jealous of Abhi today…Cos you are his PAA..
I Miss my PAA today a lot.
Love
Amit,Neetu and Swarn…
Dear Amitabhji,
I have been looking forward to seeing “Paa” ever since reading your earliest entries about it in this blog. Even though I still have “Aladin” to see, since it has not yet come to my city.
I just read an anecdote online today concerning you and the director of “Aladin”, Sujoy Ghosh:
“Sujoy Ghosh whose new film Aladin was slammed by critics, got the surprise of his life when the superstar in his film suddenly offered him much-needed tonic. On seeing how nervous tense and depressed he was, the Big B impulsively turned to Sujoy and said,“Okay go ahead announce your next film with me.”
The moment has become etched in Sujoy’s mind for eternity. “I can’t get over the moment. When the world was slamming my film, he stood up for me and supported me.”
It reminded me of something I read years ago in John McGraw’s autobiography “My Thirty Years in Baseball”, something I never forgot:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_McGraw
“Fred Snodgrass came to me as a catcher…I turned him into an outfielder. He studied every department of the game carefully and it was rare that he ever made a mistake – of judgment.
When Snodgrass dropped that ball in Boston – the error that everybody says cost us the [1912 World Series] series – I never gave him one word of reproach. Any player is liable to make an error. That was not a boner, as we call it. It happened to be one of those unavoidable things that come at a costly moment. Often I have been asked to tell exactly what I did to Snodgrass for that. For the first time I guess I will have to tell – I raised his salary $1,000 dollars a year….
To blame a player for a thing like that would show little loyalty on the part of the manager.” Chapter III, p. 16
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Snodgrass
John McGraw is one of my all time baseball heroes, and as a manager he won more games in baseball history than any other manager except for his contemporary Connie Mack. But he never let winning become an end that disregarded the means, the playing of the game the best way it could be played, for, ultimately, the sake of the game. He was not a sentimentalist, but a hard nosed baseball player, manager, and business man. Yet he valued true teamwork above all, and therefore never forgot to properly honor the individuals and colleagues who created that teamwork with him and, as manager, for him.
You response to Mr. Ghosh chimed in my mind simultaneously with this moment of grace that took place almost 100 years ago; it is one more great example to me why you are the champion you are, and another one of my favorite heroes.
Thank you!
Love, and more….

SIR
THERE IS A FEEL GOOD FACTOR AROUND PAA AND TOUCH WOOD IT WILL SET BENCHMARK FOR THE INDIAN FILM INDUSTRY !!!!!

TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOUR HEALTH
LOTS OF LOVE AND REGARDS
MANOJ GROVER
Hi! Wish and pray that “Paa”becomes a hit film.I feel you should refrain from praising the film before it is released because there are many vicious elements who would love to sabotage the film. Ofcourse, nobody can harm a good film.
Take care of your health.
With lots of good wishes

Dear Mr Bachchan,
Wish you again all the success in PAA. Hope it becomes one of the best films in the history of Indian cinema. I am yet to take a look at Aladin. I may do so sometime this week. We are excited that EFs will have the first prevelige of seeing the promos. Thats great , thanks.
You take care of your health and I know the best is yet to come.
Arun
Hi Mr Bachchan
Hope my mail finds you in the best of your health and spirits.Hope that the recurring shoulder pain has eased by now.
Happy Guru parv to you,family and FmXt.I forgot to wish yesterday.
I saw Alladin finally yesterday and I am completely bowled over by Genius.
Everything in the film was perfect.The duration,editing,direction,performances,cinematography.I loved it.It was sweet,simple,short and I kept laughing throughout the film.
The children sitting in my row were actually enacting few film sequences during the interval.That was fun watching too.
One thing I have always believed that, I never bother to read the critics point of view and I make my own and this time also I was extremely right.
PAA promo shall be a treat to watch.
Take good care
Love & warm regards
Priyanka.

I am indeed here to reciprocate the love to some of the fine members of FmXTt who continue to feel for me despite I haveing decided to not to cross refer. I t sounds so very painful of me to be so harsh to some of these lovely characters here on the blog..
Yet in the hindsight I know that it was not such a wrong decision.. my apologies to all hose who refer to me and I am not able to do so.. I would not dictate that they too should act like me. It is nt in my interest to tell anyone what one is expected to do..
For once again I was aty loss f words to find someone infringing the Amitabh ziibbu- the greatest living fan of AB to be misused by someone in casting acerbic and atrocious remarks on someone very close to the blog and to me as well.. if the targetting man does have guts he should resurface with proper identity.. it indeed is sad way of naming individuals and referring them the way it has been done..
I am referring to day 555 and the comment is #601 or so I beleive.. amd it would be a very humble request to our dear friend AZ to issue his part of the say on the matter.. in either case..
Life as such is full of test and trials at every step ansd as eery day progresses and if it has to be burdened with additional troubles while showing or exhibiting our love and affection to the man we have loved all our life on this blog.. it surely does amount to an unfortunate event..
May I thus have a privilege for the first time to seek your intervention brother to seek from the server people to get to know the email id of the man who wrote these comments on day 555.. the one who has been indulging in such acts can not be stopped in the first place.. yet if at a later time it is discovered and referred should it not be removed at the first opportunity… Thus my request is to nab the culprit and get his this particualr post deleted..
Love and Affection
Abhaya Sharma
PS I know I did not share the match yesterday with you.. I was not knowing that India could loose a game where they were just required to make 251 runs.. and Australia has proved one point all over again.. that they are the best side.. that they were the best side.. and that they will remain the best side when it comes to discuss one day cricket..
Of course the team that plaeyed better as a unit.. the team that applied itself to the tasks at hand did win the game.. at one satge it did appear that Aussies might simply go ahead to make 280 or thereabouts yet they could muster only 250 on the board.. yet the way they bowled and fielded except for the birthday boy Johnson it was something extraordinary when the final result was announced.. Australia drubbing Inda by 24 runs.. Good work by Bollinger and Watson.. and admirably supported by every member on the field..

Hi,
my first time on blog. reading all commnets is nice. Lily, i pray for your baby’ soul how strange God’s ways are. you are mourning the child u lose 3 yrs back and someone here busy writing poem instead of looking after sick child. hope God gifts u beautiful baby soon. and hope others learn lesson from u how to love children and not waste time here when children need them more. Lord be with u always.
Tina.
Eagerly waiting to watch both of your films;lets see when does that happen.
Quite ticklish to know that legends like you too bother about box office results and take note of such movie critics whose MOST VALUED opinions can be easily sold and bought in the market !!! Know that you are an unparalleded phenomenan in Bollywood today,with each stroke u make,u r creating history.IMHO at this stage and phase(such unparalled heights)u should be in competition with ur own self—striving to top ur last best or maybe all of those.And if possible;inspire directors/moviemakers to bring fresh and good stories to the theatres everytime.We are soooo sick of the same love triangles,the slapstick comedies,the endless adaptations of Ramayan and Mahabharat.Its only once in a blue moon that our thirst for good cinema is quenched.
And by the way;aren;t these the same critics who praised “Kambakht Ishq”?Ha ha ha GOD SAVE THE WORLD !
Respected Amitji,
Your post again brought back some life to me and and i am sure to many others too..
I am very sure that ‘Paa’ is going create a new history in the world of cinema. The title itself is so close to heart.. i call my father ‘appaa’..
Very heartfelt sms from close people.. including yash ji..
Please take good care of ur shoulder and sleep peacefully.
love and pranaams
archana(bangalore)
#AJ - great idea .. let ALL EF participate in promoting..
‘PAA’ - The most awaited movie this year ….something really special
lots of love to all EF
For AB,
The magic of Amitabh Bachchan’s voice-over does not need to be told. I dont need a review, or a media campaign to tell me about Amitabh Bachchan’s dialogue delivery. You are the best there has ever been, and will be for a long time. Going by that sms, ‘Paa…’ is going to be a runaway success!
There are other reasons too ofcourse. For crazy fans like me, this prosthetics thing is a blessing in disguise. Just your acting and voice, no french beard!
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!
About how you call, ‘Paa’; knowing your prowess, I am sure its going to be a wake-up call for every viewer… just as in the past… while watching films like Deewar, Kala Pathar et al… when your presence on the screen touched each viewer individually and in that one moment the people around ceased to exist..
‘Paa..’ seems to have that potential… lets wait…
Love
Sudhir
First of all a very-2 Happy Gurparab to all my Sikh friends through this platform. This is 540th Guru Nanak Dev’s Jayanti and a very precious day to celebrate on full moon night. May Baba ji bless all with love, compassion, humanity and respect for each other.
Amit ji, your shoulder pain is reviving back and back thus needs to be focused more diligently for permanent treatment. Very nice to hear Yoga word from you after a long time. Kindly keep it up and keep mentioning it once a while to your beloved EF.
Do you take BP readings yourself and transfer it to your doctor or they come onsite and do it for you? Just curious to know the process at your end, though it doesn’t matter who really does as long the motive is served.
Your BP is highly important for our health.
The first hand feedback from industry Gurus sound pretty affiance and should definitely provide all those involved with ‘PAA’ a great sign of initial relief and confidence for fruitful results. Talking about results this is what comes in my mind from ‘Bhagavad-Gita”
” Karmanyev adhikarash te,
ma phaleshu kadachana..”
Means: You can only control your karma, not the result/outcome.
Love and regards……
Bade Bhai,
its great day for me and the sad dau for me, today I lost a friendship in my life which I cherished for last 25 yrs and today is the great day for me that i would make one of the investor invest individually more then one Cr in my compnay its an achivment for my self
As far as PAA is concerned iam desperate to see you on screen
Dear Lily,
Praying for strength for you and your family. It must have taken lots to share something so personal with all of us. But we are one family in cyberspace and if in some way we could share that pain, we will. Love heals all wounds…. and this will hopefully be less painful as time goes by.
Take care, and look towards the sunshine.
Anshu
I am sure Paa will leave a huge huge impact. About finances, since the production cost is so so less, I am sure its a sure shot hit. Altho I wont trust Adi Chopra’s feeling, as I dont remember when was the last time he gave a hit. All the best to him too.
Balki handles this movies with a lot of care & attention, and it shows. Cheeni Kum touched a lot of chord and I am sure he will repeat that feat.
Illiyaraja is a genius.
I will sure do my bit to promote the movie as it has my super fav stars. Abhishek & you.
Also I suggest you, if i can that is, to promote as much as you can. Aladin promotions really missed you in most places.
#Pettssy: Thanks for the clarification, I did understand what you meant to say. Medical science is not my subject too. I do not expect an answer from BIG B , but shall wait for the film to release and reviews to be seen.
The question why I raised was as there is this movie on Wish well where a Boy becomes a man etc etc bla bla being released and have seen promos, is in line with a English movie where Tom Hanks had acted…GOD knows why are we making another movie after so many years with Hindi version, re-release the same with Hindi dubbing, Simple cost control…
#Mondira: na na I do not stay in Kolkata but in Mumbai, I do visit the city of Joy, in-laws you see. I have seen Apur Sanshar and Debi too. Pheluda is all time favourite, I even have the books published by Penguine. Shall try to seen Anjan’s movie.
Love laways

hi Amitabh sir.I was hoping if there was a new movie coming out.
Hi Sir,
That togetherness and unity that shines is magnificent and to hear about events such as songs being composed for noble causes such as these is sure heart warming. Good to hear that many from the industry are praising PAA which makes it even more anticipating as to what it will be about. Looking forward to the first official look and promo! Hope your shoulder does not bother you as much and the pain keeps away. All the best with the dubbing for PAA.
Regards and Love,

Very good wishes for your coming film, I pray to god for your sound health.

hi mondira. thanks for adding me on friends list. c ya around.
Hi! sir,
I’m big fan of you not because your stardome but because of your disciplined life. I learn alot from your life. You know your are great resource of inspiration for my kind of million youths. I’m fascinated by your Hindi and way of talking. You reflect that you are son of Legendry Mr. Hariwansh Rai Bachchan.
Dear Amit ji ,
Concent of the film is very novel and having seen Blaki’s Cheeni Kum i feel this movie will really be a very sensitive n high on sentivity n emotinal content…….making it a stong script to be visually intrepreted.
Having you as son of Abhi again is a very good angel n aspect that will drive your fans into the cinema’s.
You as a kid………………. i am dying to see u in this avtar…….i think after balck this is the moive i am really looking for and one that will prove why you are among the select few who can be called the Shenshah n legneds of indian cinema………….a perfect role for a perfect person like you who at this stage needs something extraordinary to do…….
you this movie i feel will be in every cinema lovers collection like black and you will also proudly refer to it as one of the movies of you life.
BEST OF LUCK…….
GOD BLESS U
N KEEP DODING SOME SPECIAL STUFF LIKE BLACK & PAA …………….
Lily,

I read ur yesterday’s comment adn u write of serving anil kapoor and hoping to see mr. bachchan again too! it is great. yes indians very warm people compared to cold western. i be to germany once and they treat me badly. too much discrimination for me and my friends. we vow never to go there. people are same like hitler time. thank god they no put us in concentration camps. hahaha.

Dear Sir,
This is Vinayak from Goa.I was always under the impression that I am one of your greatest fans.But I guess I am wrong.From the comments I see on this blog it appears like there are many thousands of other people who are more ardent followers of Amitabh the great, than me.
I have grown up seeing your movies.Each character you ahve played has left an indelible mark on my mind.And to some extent has even influenced my personality.You are admired in my whole family (my Mom & father love watching your movies.)
It is really a great privilege to interact with you through this blog.Thanks you a million times for what you are and all that you ahve given us over the years.
You stand mile apart from other Movie stars.The personality you have & the way you have carried yourself all these years make you a bigger star is real life than what you ahev portrayed in films.
Waiting eagerly for your next film PAA.
I guess with age you too need to take rest and take care of your health.I request you to slow down a bit so that we can see more of you in reel & real life.Wish you all the best for all your movies and also in personal life.
Good luck,
Vinayak Bhende
thank you Vinayak .. love
Dear Mr. Bachchan,
Waiting eagerly for PAA.
Take care.

whoa ! if thats the thing , i agree with you statement. why copy English movies all the time and brag about it as if its a unique, original new idea and spend so much on it. unless someone thinking that one can act better than original one’s actor and try to prove the point like Gabbar in remake of Sholay. sorry to be blunt and don’t mean to offend anyone but Hindi /Indian cinema need to show some originality for a change. don’t you think so!?
watch ‘PAA’
Amit,
After the examination paper has been written we in our student life waits eagerly for our results to come out.
But honestly speaking after giving the exam we ourselves knows what marks we are going to get.
But still we wait for the results to come out.
Personally I think if the examination papers have been correctly written by us then surely we will pass the exam.
Same in real life as well as in reel life.
Hope what I want to convey from the above example has been conveyed to you.
Vishal Kumar Gupta
Hi Mr. Bachchan
I visited the site of PAA yesterday, shall be waiting for the official release of the first look of Auro tomorrow for sure….
I am extremely happy to know that the responses so far have been positive.
Hope your shoulder is fine & did not disturb your sleep.
Take care

dear amitji,
greetings!
good luck for PAA. considering the accolades which just the promos are bringing to you makes me think that it is definitely going to be a great great film. your never before look in this film is something i am eager to see.
hope this films fulfills the expectations of people. you see these days when people spend Rs. 150 per head to watch a movie, they want full value for money. Otherwise we feel that one could have saved spending on this movie and saved this money to pay cable charges for full month or half month. there used to be times when people used to watch movies by buying tickets in black. but now times have changed. so many halls are there, so much entertainment is available on cable and companies like tata-sky and channels are showing newly released films just a few days after their release. so to attract a cine-goer to cinema hall the film should have some magnetic kind of element which should make one feel that i need to watch this film on big screen and i can not wait for channels to show this movie. for an average looking film i can wait for 3-4 months for it to come on cable channels. i saw a few films in cinema halls a few months back. For example I saw Billu, Ghajani etc. but returned disappointed. I have not felt like going to cinema hall during past few months because all the films which released during this span seemed to be average ones from the promos itself. Even watching Ghajani made me feel that it was not worth watching. it was only the hype created before its release that i went to watch it in cinema hall. but i did not find anything extraordinary in the film. even aamir’s acting was ok ok. no new story, no good music and most certainly a man’s six packs do not attract me at all. i would not spend my Rs 150 for seeing aamir’s six packs. seriously speaking i felt cheated by watching both Ghajani and Billu. The films were like old, stale dry fruit in a beautiful packing.
on the other hand i regret not watching films like kuch kuch hota hai on big screen. following are films which i would like to watch again and again on big screen are :
qayamat se qaymat tak, for the innocent looks of Juhi Chawla and good story.
dil chahta hai, for i feel stress free seeing the way the characters of the film live their lives
aakhri rasta, your acting, dialogue delivery story and for sridevi
khuda gawah, for your acting , dialogure delivery, story, for sridevi and good music
dil waley dulhaniya le jayenge, for it is an absolutely refresing movie even today
agnipath, for your dialogue delivery, looks. In fact i watched this movie during my Xii th standard exams when it had released and i did not want to miss it.
in recent times some films which i like watching on cable but would not spend Rs. 150 on them are
Corporate,
Khosla ka Ghonsla
Life in a Metro etc.
Guru, I watched in cinema and it was full value for money. One can watch it again and again on tv especially the climax court scenes and it is my endeavour not to miss the climax whenever the movie is coming on cable.
Hope you will read my post and will not find it boring.
take care

Dear Mr Bacchan
Namaste
Its really a great feeling writing to you.
I cant even how i would feel when you’ll reply to this in your next post
I would appreciate if you could throw some light on your upcoming Movie “Aiyaar” - Based on a TV show by Nirja Guleri
Also,
I saw ur latest movie Alladin
You have done a great job
2 thumbs up for u
Regards
Mayank Jain
OH MY GOD !!!! How could u do weights with that kind of shoulder ,u must be crazy ,though am sorry to use that word ….
WOW !!! am so excited we will get to see the promo of PAA even before it’s on NDTV
and other channels ..
I still have to watch ALADIN though,no friends to go with rt now
Mr. Bachchan ,u have set so many standards in Cinema and have been a benchmark in whatever u have done and right through out your career and i have no doubt that PAA will be an extraordinary and stupendous movie …..All the best and regards
by the way what is 838485 ????
Sir, would like share an observation regarding Aladdin’s review. ‘the over the top acting by AB’ is quoted frm Taran Adarsh’s review. Taran Adarsh is a respected and according to me most authenticate reviewer of the Bollywood. His review of Aladdin was very critical unlike him. Here was a man who gave 4 stars to movies like Kambakkhat Ishq, Blue, Sankat City(can u beleive it?). Of late he was criticised heavily for his do-gooody’s reviews. So Alddin feel prey to change of Taran’s image. And what better way. Criticise Big B, everybody’s soft target. He is the angry young man who is bound to retaliate and this is what He did. And thus ensuring publicity to the criticisers.
PP IS THE BIGGEST MOVIE OF ALL TIMES
PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Dear AMIT JI !
After reading that cant wait more for Paa.Very interested to know
that what surprise this movie have for your fans and plzzzzzzzzzzz
even in jokes ,dont use this word “Retire”.This not suits on your
personality.You are the most rocking and young sensation of the
movies.Only white hairs and age not show your power.Your love for
movies,your passion towards movies and especially your interest in
your movies show that how movies means towards you and I am
that this Blog also shows you that how people love you and this is
the shortest and smallest example and you know that very well:)
live long dear !
love u very much !
take care,
Khuda hafiz
VIJAYA !
Today very soon….good:)
Dear Amitji
Pranaam!
PAA looks very promising. All the very best dear.
Take care of your shoulder, sir.
Lots of luv
Sujata.
For AB & Manish Parmar,
Manish scored better than I on the BB3 outcome last night.
I miscounted the votes. With the count requiring two break aways and everyone to call the same names Tanaaz and Bak-Bakhtiyar had to get at least 6 nominations. Which meant Rohit would have to get something only from the gang of four Shamita-Tanaaz-Aditi-Bakhtiyar. But that gang had already zoomed in on Vindoo and Ismail. So Rohit escaped scotfree.
So the vote split 6-4!!!
I think Ismail & Raju pulled off a tough one. They broke into the vicious cordon! And in style too; picked up the two most unlikely candidates for a defection, Poonam & Claudia!!
And now, its mayhem!!! Aditi and Shamita have realised that the equations have changed. No woman is going to trust another for sometime. Shamita is likely to vote against Poonam. Poonam will vote against Aditi. And so on…
Man, when it comes to politics, you cant beat an uncanny Allahabaadi maestro!
Bhaiyya aisan hai, humaar judwa bhai kumbh ka mele ma khoi gawa; phir 20 saal baad hum suneh rahi ke u bumbai ma Don bann gaya hain, naam rakhe hain Amitabh Bachhanwa; to hum soche chalo hum bhi Don bani!
And now, Big Boss has played his own card with four nominations!
The pecking order is probably going for a six! Must think of a new one!
Interesting,
Love
Sudhir
# 232 SHARMILA !
Fantastic interview….!
Your questions are well and
GOD answered very well:D
My dearest Mr. Bachchan,
Read your brief for the day with mixed feelings yet again….where on the one hand, the positive feed back for the promos of PAA were reassuring and encouraging, your mention of the shoulder pain surfacing again proved to be very distressing! I pray with deep faith, that you overcome it and that it shall heal quickly! Your dependance on the pain killers is another matter of concern!
The text msgs which you have recd with regard to the promos of PAA and which you have shared with us here, were very poignant! Thank you. I have been hearing a lot about Aladin being a very ‘clean’, and a ’sweet’ movie, from friends who’ve seen it already! Besides, our friends in the media have very vociferously proclaimed it a hit! So there you are! You needn’t be crestfallen about it anymore, alright? I think the people who go and watch the movie are better judges of it. I was very touched to see that you still think and worry about 483484485….but pls do not bother about it…your sincerity and daily contact with your EF is more than we can ever ask and hope for!! You just have a wonderful day ahead!
With much love and blessings,
Always,
Kashmira

Dear Amitji, NAMASKAR.
I am happy to be back on the blog after 10 days after my return from GUJARAT where I was on constant move in connection with office work and then visit to DWARKA and SOMNATH. I have been praying for you also at those divine shrines for your good health and success of all your future projects.
I have gone through all the past blogs during my absence on blog. Though Aladin has not generated good news from you but I am excited to know about the response to PAA. Tomorrow we will also have some thing to see about PAA as you have mentioned.
I am sure your extraordinary zeal and sincere commitment will bring fruits to all stakeholders.
There is very exciting news that the channel HEADLINES TODAY will have all day long programme on 7th November titled “AB TAK 40″.
I have retired from Government service after putting 40 years of regular service. Would I be lucky enough to receive your good wishes for my post retirement innings? During these last 560 days of your blog, I have been inspired a lot and want to keep myself busy doing things which I could not do earlier.
Please…… a few kind words from you on the yellow strip will give me energy for my future plans.
With warm regards and love,
sincerely,
vishan lal
Dear Sir,
You already established yourself “You are great”.

Thanks so much S kh/ USA for the warm wishes for my mum. So too to Reeham.
Yes, she is 80 TODAY, my mum, not Reeham;)!
It is also the day we celebrate little Rishon Rico’s entrance to this world, albeit brief but above all the day GOD chose him to be our guardian angel. Lily, our thoughts and prayers with you and your wonderful husband not just today but forever more. You are an example to show how the saddest event does not need to lead to bitterness, instead turn it into something positive for yourself and others. Like you celebrate your Rishon, I too celebrate my Leanne’s brief moment in this world. She would have 21 this March. I got a small tattoo to celebrate her 21st;)
May I choose this moment to ask AB to take good care of himself and I pray for him to have a painfree life. The time you spend on us do come at a price and we appreciate it on a daily basis.
Love you all. Thanks Kash for your daily acknowledgement. So too to Naresh. I heard about Sam’s accident with the burn to his hand? So sorry to hear about that but glad he is getting better. Love good news here.
Love

Hello Sir,

DAY 558
Mario Andrew Rodrigues says:
November 1, 2009 at 1:15 pm
Dearest Amitabhji,
Wishing your daughter a Very Very Happy Birthday and may God bless her abundantly with good health, joy, love and grants her all that she desires, wishes, prays for. Wishing success to her films , endorsements and charities.
As I thought and mentioned yesterday, you gave the media some oxygen to jump, toss, run all around and everywhere on the followup of the ’sermon’ sms. Silence was needed, which you rightly did. Sssshhhh.
Did not see Aladin yet. So, holding back comments.
But even though I see just a simple, inexpensive, ordinary, non-attractive, empty, blank(nothing written) box. I strongly feel ‘PAA’ will be an award worthy movie for acting and script of 2009. Visited website, its just the same box, but looking at the useful side of this box, we can use it to put trash or valuables, it can cover majestic or realistic simple looks. But my heart feeling take(on seeing your looks which was leaked) is that this box will reach the BOX office. This is just my simple guess and simple wish. The reason why I am saying it is because many a times this simply box has enabled me and family transport so many ordinary and extra-ordinary things from Gulf to India for extra-ordinary family folks and neighbours & friends which brought smiles to so many , more love, & made living look so much wonderful.
Most of the best things & values of life comes in ordinary boxes and in ordinary living human hearts.
Ordinary Mario
Tonight was an enjoyable one at SAIFF.
The short film was ‘Kavi’, a USC thesis filmed in India about a fictional boy enslaved in one of the kilns in Maharashtra. It was very disturbing.
The feature was the world premiere of Sauraba Shula’s ‘Raat Gayi baat Gayi?’ starring Neha Dhupia, who starred in ‘Bollywood Hero’, and Rajat Kapoor who directed last night’s film. It was a very entertaining comedy. I met Rajat Kapoor afterwards and wished I’d have had my camera.
But the funniest part of this festival is the program director who introduces all the films and hosts the Q&A’s with the casts and crews.
Now I will watch some more of BB3 although I could really use some subtitles.
I hope your morning has been without any pain.
Goodnight.
Love,
Rochelle
Amit Uncle,
PAA is releasing soon and i’m excited. It is going to be a landmark movie i’m sure. Our prayers and wishes with u always. Please take care of your health. Plzzzzzzzzzzzzz. We all love u loads n loads.
Love
Deeps
Dear Amitji,
Please forward this message to Aishwarya and Abhishekh for the promotion of Paa.
NOTES for ensuring success of PAA.
1. Please ensure that on the day of release of PAA, youTube.com should not allow people to upload the movie. Big Production house checks if somone uploads the movie and ask Youtube for not displaying it as it is against the copyRight. This is very important as sometimes good movies also fells flat on box office because most of the movie goer had already watched it on YouTube.
2. After reading todays blog there is a feeling that it is going to be a super success so please do not over adverstise…
3. Please do not overpromote any character including Amitabh Bachchan. During promotion please give equal importance to Vidya Balaan and Abhishekh Bachchan in the promotion and other characters.
4. Dialogues(if there is any) is the strength of Amitabh Bachchan, so please include atleast one dialogue in the promo. Please include one emptional scene and i hope there is comedy where people are forced to laugh.
5. Do not react if there is a bad review from critics, they are critics and they have rights to write there own opinion but if someone praises please include their praise on the Paa website….Peoples normally keep searching praises to go and watch movies and they tend to ignore bad lines from critics…We the people always think positive, read positive and ignore bad lines…as they are biased.
Best of Luck and do not forget to thank the people for watching Paa…. It is going to rewrite history….I wish you all the best. These are all the request all the AB fans here.
hi amit ji…
hum aap ka aladin dekhe.ush mein aap ka role aap pe bilkul achha nahi lagta hai .
It is surely believed that ‘PAA’ shall break the new barriers in acting, as never attempted and never seen before. It is all the more, jsut because the performance comes from the Greatest, Most Versatile, Most Convincing Performer of all times, and we are gifted to have ‘him’ in the Indian Film Industry, yes.
With “PAA’, our expectations are just beyond what we have witnessed earlier on the screen by any actor, it is believed. It surely promises to be a hyper emotional journey for one and all.
May I say, get the awards be reserved for Mr. Amitabh Bachchan for his performance in ‘PAA’. Right starting from the National Award ….. and other Industry Awards be it IIFA, FILMFARE, .. and what not…
Just watch out … any .. Beta .. You gonna shed your tears for this ‘PAA’ .. with the performances we await to watch out for, I am quite sure.
With the very best of Health, Joy, Peace, Happiness in Abundance … May You remain Blessed Always, Sir !
With deepest and sincerest Respects,

Thanks

A Message of Love, Admiration and Blessings, for Lily D’Penha:
Dearest, Sweetest Lily,
Little Rishon Rico turns all of three years old today, and progresses into His fourth year! On this special day, I hold your hand and urge you and your loving husband to re-mind yourselves of those nine beautiful months that you both had him with you and savoured his Essence within you! None of us knows the volume of sand remaining in the hourglass of our lives. Now, more than ever, Rishon teaches us to appreciate the people we spend it with! He seems to have overtaken all of us in the race to Salvation and Eternal Bliss! May he always Remain and Be!! Amen!!
I know from experience how difficult dealing with loss can be, but I also know how empowering and special it feels to receive words of empathy and understanding from those who care. Words not only hug your heart in a time of loss, they are also powerful and healing.
I cannot but be proud to know someone like the two of you, Lily…someone who let go and let God take care…..your acceptance of His Will, in the truest sense, has ensured that little Rishon Rico was set free to charter his own Course ahead, while still guarding over and loving his beautiful parents, who gave him his shelter when he decided to pass this way!
May you both continue to live in an attitude of gratitude, that He gave you your moments of happiness, however brief, and live with the knowledge that your Angel will ever be by your side, never to forsake you, ever!!
With all our prayers, our love and our blessings to you dearest children,
Ever and always,
Sant and Kashmira Grewal
sir bahut time se hindi me kuch nahi spada aapke blog par.aur madushala ke kuch kisse hi suna dijiye. paa ke liye subhkamnayen
hi mr bachchan, just wanted to say that i watched your interview with Barkha Dutt on NDTV the other day - dont know how old that was, they showed it here in L.A a few days back. Your reply to her comment about peoples opinion of you as enigmatic etc etc - when you said “why dont you keep your opinion to yourself” was hilarious
Awesome way of expressing your frustration with the constant obsession so humorously !
Adore your movies - and you, met you years ago in Goa and have adored you even more since then
sir bahut time se hindi me kuch nahi pada aapke blog par.aur madushala ke kuch kisse hi suna dijiye. paa ke liye subhkamnayen
The critics and fickle minded public have killed Aladin.
With all due respect Mr. Bacchan I think it is time to hang up the gloves and ride into the sunset. Who am I to say this but health is very important. Greed will get you nowhere. (people who say I don’t do it for money are fooling only themselves) God has given you more than what you have asked for. Time to start spending time with family 24/7 before eyes are shut once and for all. Us fans are greedy and would like to see you on screen forever but it is the right time to say goodbye to your illustrious career.
i just wish i too have some of your qualities.
may god bless you.
hello amitji,
wish u very good health & all happiness.
Dearest Reshmi,
Here’s wishing your dear Mamma a very Happy Birthday as she turns 80 today! May she continue to remain in good health and spirits, and may she and your dear Father always live in togetherness and bask in the love of their lovely children!
With much love,
Always,
Sant and Kashmira
I admire following qualities
1. Dedication for familly.
2. Dedication to work
3. Discipline
4.Fighting spirit
5. Command over language
6.Capability to keep promises
7.Such hard work ( working on average 20 hrs a day)
All these are amazing at the age of 68
Sir,
Hope this blog continues to the end of time. A lot of people seem dependent on it. Mostly lonely old spinsters and/or women neglected by husbands and children and feeling unwanted. Cant go to a shrink and be labeled psychotics for life. here they get free counseling and consoling and a pseudofeeling of being wanted. They end up disrupting happy people’s lives too by demanding more and more attention and emotional blackmailing. By keeping the blog updated on a daily basis, such pathetic humans have a last chance of survival without dependency on medication. u also help to keep suicidal and homicidal ideations to a minimum. they are in the company of smart young men and women and feel good about themselves. this is a great service to the community. Just an analysis. keep it up and all the best for ur movies and ur life.
Cheers,
Matt.
Dear Amitji,

Hello Sir’
I am desperately awaiting the release of PAA!!!Sir.

Vaishali Shet
Dear Lily D’Penha,
I can understand your feelings. It is so tragic when an innocent little angel who was preparing to begin his journey on earth has to depart without opening his eyes and seeing this wonderful world and the ones who were waiting for months to welcome him with love and affection. May God give you and your husband the courage and resilience to face this loss.
Melwyn
Dear Mr.Amitabh Bachchan!
I have hope that You feel better. All the best for PAA. Take care
Lots of love to You

Hello Sir,
How R U??? I really like your advices in Big Boss. I just wonder why people can’t live peacefully and why do they indulge in politics(as Rohit is doing in Big Boss) and run after money. Whatever is destined to happen will happen, then why to waste time in useless chatting about others. Why don’t they try to go for Self Realization?
Bye & Take Care

Normally I do not write lists of names, because I want my acknowledgements to be inclusive, and not exclusive, but I feel the need to list, just for once, some people by name, because you have kindly interacted with me on the blog, and sometimes beyond:
first, my wonderful blog-given pen/e-pals, Jasmine J, Valorie, and Satinder;
then the wonderful people who have directly shared thoughts, ideas, feelings, opinions, poetry, essays, movies, musicians, songs, links, and info with me on the blog: Umesh Kamat, Renate, Satyam, Manish our link-king, Sharmista, Tatiana, Barun, Daisy M, Ramanathan, Dr. Anshu, Shankar, Ravi P. Malhotra, Sharmila, Archana (Bengaluru), Aishwarya, Ibrar Hussain, Rasha Zayed, E. T., Hanh, Darshan-Toronto, Sudhir, Sandeep Nanda;
then the incredible people who continue to inspire me as Kashmiri Grewal just did again on Day 559 in her wonderful comment 280 on forgiveness; people who inspire me with what seems to be their very first comment on the blog as 396 Mangala Gouri did on Day 599;
and then I want to acknowledge those wonderful people who give me a little burst of cheer when they have simply greeted me: Srinivas, Manish Parmar, AJ, S kh, Pawan Pipalwa, Anil-Toronto, zainab, Pettssy, Naresh Bhatt, Sanjith, Socha, and – this is why I hate to make lists – any name I should have named that I will remember later with embarrassment for having missed; if so, please forgive me…(my memory for names is notoriously bad)
Anat Magen, thank you for changing from all Capital letters; this makes your comments much easier for me to read; you are as sweet and thoughtful as your comments have always been!
Dr. Anshu, it’s wonderful that you’re back; I greatly enjoyed reading your Aladin review!
Manoj Kumar Ojha, it is great to see that your are home safe from your travels also.
Mousumi, I was sorry to read that you had been in the hospital, and I wish you a total and speedy recovery.
There are so many more of you whose names I always look for who are too many to list, and I’d like to send my love and best wishes out to all of you, you with whom I share a silent but significant exchange whenever I read one of your comments.
Love and regards, Phyllis
Dear Mr. Bachchan,
My prayers to Almighty for the success of your film ‘Paa’.

My God, Sir, this movie has fueled my imagination right from the start, and now as I read these tit-bits about the movie, my expectations take a wing and start soaring high in the sky….
There is no doubt in my mind that this movie will set a new - and impossible - benchmark in the world of cinema!
But Sir, honestly, I just hope that people are not going over-board with compliments and thus misleading you…. I mean, Sir, even with ALADIN, compliments on its production value and special effects and music - all were in abundance. And yet, its not setting the cash registers on fire….
Balki had done wonderfully with Cheeni Kum, but had completely lost it in the second half with the Paresh Rawal thing….
I hope same is not repeated here.
I hope you haven’t been over-the-top in this movie.
I hope there is an “innocence” in this movie as befitting the title PAA.
I hope this movie does wonders - and changes your NAME from BIGB to PAA….
With love & regards,
Rajesh Kejriwal

AmitJI….
Its worrying and deeply upsetting. You work so hard for all your films. And then when it comes to promotion and marketing….everthing fades away. Media has been extremely unfair when it comes to your films. I dont know Amitji…but as someone that loves you immensely….it gets very painful.
Love

I walk along the beach
Leaving footprints cold and bare
How can I enjoy the sunset,
When there’s no one here to share?
There used to be a pair,
Of footprints next to mine.
But they washed away with waves
And the shifting sands of time.
All I can do now,
Is remember how things were.
The good times, not the bad times,
Which caused my heart to stir.
*********
When it hurts to look back,
and you’re scared to look ahead,
you can look beside you
and your best friend will be there

Dear mr. amithabh bachhan;
I fail to understand your understanding,,,,,,why you comment on some cases files against you????why you make some much of hue n cry when someone critisise you and make some allegations????
people think you are superhuman,,,,they are right in somewhy as they are common people,,,,fighting day to day struggle of earning livelihood in this tough world ,,but it seems you yourself bealive that ur a superhuman…
Dear mr bacchan,,,,take hot water it will keep you clean,,,,you are surrounded by people who only keep praising you,,,
Quality and celebrity comes at a prise ,,,which you have to pay,,,
In this materialist world it will go on,,,,,dont react just pay the price being celebrity ,,,,and keep entertaining us,,
My mother tells me,,,even though i do not watch movie now a days ,,,that when i was kid n used to watch ur movie on cinema,,,would stand on cinema hall n say ,,maar sale gabbar ko,,,or settey ko,,,
i again repeat keep hot water it will keep you clean and humle,,be it raj thakrey or mayawati,,,even just thank them for showing you mirrior that as individual ur not a superhuman,,,just an ordinary person,,,

ROUTINE.
YOURS,
RAJESH
Dear Amit Ji,
Its an honour to link yourself with such a big personality. Its like linking to God. I am your big fan since childhood. I have grown up seeing your different colours in cinema….and each colour is vibrant and beautiful. Big Boss is doing fine but I feel there has to be more of u..which is missing…I wish if we could see Aishwarya and Jaya ji together in any movie. That will look beautiful. We want to know more about you how you spend your day and what you do when you are idle, which is rare.
Pooja
dear lilly (#188),
from the bottom of my heart i pray for your beloved son. i can very well understand your feelings. But you must draw satisfaction from the fact that your son is gone and gone forever and you know this. He is in some safe hands. However, there are situations where one’s loved one is not gone, he is right there but like someone dead. i mean to say that the person is before your eyes but is like dead. You can see him all the time but can not talk to him. You want to talk to him but you can not. Such are also the situations. So even though your sorrow is too big, dificult to forget but you are still in a better situation than the one i explained to you above.
I am in one such situation.
Your words :
“When God closes the door, he opens a window……This has proven so true for us, but one can only see the open window if you choose to turn towards the light and we are glad we chose to do so.”
I have heard this from many others many times. This sounds very good and gives one ray of hope. But I am yet to experience this in my life. hope this comes true for me also.
Once again I pray that your son’s soul may rest in peace. And thank you for sharing your experience with all. Many of us would draw the strength to come out of unpleasent situations in life.
take care,
anil taneja

Sir …good to read your blog….its been time that i wanted to write to you but could not cause of work load…Sir i wanted to get in touch with your team as i have a wonderful story which is unfortunatley a true story….this unfortunate story is real but a good story…i am sure if you look at it will be worth…i need to get in touch with your team for the same…u have my email id..if someone from your team can get in touch with me it will be great…i am not a writer nor am i looking at being one…but somehow i have put in some efforts and completed the script…i would request you to please look into this…i have actually visulaised the entire story keeping in mind your profile and it is really working….it will be giving something different to the audience…the punch line of this story has never been till date used and will make lot of difference….awaiting your positive response….Regards
Hello again,
I can imagine the pain on your shoulder. You are strong and you will be fine (billons And zillions pray for you)
So - coming to point - a long time ago I wrote and comment regarding the movie Aladin. As I said that critics will be waiting like HUNGRY JUNGLE DOGS awaiting its release and then tear apart the movie as worse as possible EVEN WITHOUT WATCHING THE MOVIE.
But hey don’t we all know this. These dogs seriously have unity beyond imagination I must compliment them for that. But they keep failing over and over BECAUSE? Because YOU and Your son are still in the business and you are going on despite failure or success.
I haven’t seen the movie but will soon go and watch it because Aladin is my childhood best film. I always looked out for this movie but never got to watch until disney released in animated version and it was awesome.
“They say Amitabh Bachchan and Sanjay DUtt’s performance was over the TOP”?????????????????????/ ROFL I am laughing.
DID they see “Batman _ The Dark Knight? The Joker got the Oscar but his performance was over the top, infact Batman himself in the movie his acting was over the top IF you carefully watch The Dark Knight again.
But who cares, Critics Love the bash Indian movies especialy the one with Bachchans in it.
Yesterday as usual I was surfing BBC reading news and there was the new report on Mrs Indira Gandhi on how she became Prime Minister and how she led the country and also the war and the unfortunate event we all mourned that dark day of her assasination.
Of course your family was close to their family especially her and there was the picture of her funeral and her son was in the picture and you were beside him holding.
I was wondering if you wanted to share and write a blog day entry about her in her great memory.
Just a thought. I think there are some very few people whom you respect from your heart and soul despite anything. It is like they were born Kings or Queens and rule like them in the hearts and minds of people even they have gone.
Thanks
hi
want 2 tell u it brought tears 2 my eyes when i watched sbs on star news yesterday, ur attempt on trying 2 patch up things between sherlyn & her mother, indeed like her mother said u r an angel god bless u have a nice day
dear lily it takes a lot of courage to share something so private,but since we are all ef ,i hope that when u read each of our mesages you feel the warmth and comfort ,that we pray for you and your husband ,god bless
Dear Mr. Bachchan,
The responses that you have been getting for ‘Paa’ is making the wait for the 5th of Nov very difficult. Satyam will be very happy with the way ‘Paa’ is being introduced. Good Luck and regards.

Dear Sir, In fact this is my 16 th attempt of asking the same question and i wonder if ever i wud get a yellow band.
Dear Sir,
First of all i would like to thank you for regularly posting on this blog giving us a chance to interact with you. I have lot of intuitiveness for asking some questions about your past which i am writing now :
Sir,in fact i have been your admirer for a long long time. From my childhood memories i still remember when you were injured during shooting of movie Coolie.The whole nation felt a blow and every one was concerned and worried about your health.In fact my cousin sis not only used to weep but she went to a temple and prayed for you and offered bribe to the god that she would keep n number of fasts in lieu of your comeback.Since I was a kid so all this made a permanent impression on me in believing that you are a cult,heavenly figure who can never do wrong and is invincible.After that i started tracking each and every info about you.
By grace of god you made a comeback and gave several hits to the movie industry.And then you launched AB CORP,arranged a Miss WORLD Pageant but unfortunately things didn’t work financially and it was a big big disaster.I was shocked to read that all so called near and dear ones with whom you had worked tried avoiding you and such worst situation came that your house was about to be auctioned.Now this is something which is unjustified, people with whom not only you worked but made them earn a lot of money through your acted movies,how could they shirk a celebrity like you in lean times ?????????????Amazing human nature ????????????????
But rightly you again bounced back with help of some real helpful friends.And in fact after that you shut down every critic’s mouth and your celebrity status reached an all time high which is still unparalleled.Nothing could have pleased me better than seeing whole world admiring you. SIR, now i would like to seek answers to some thoughts that have been hovering on my mind regarding your lifespan :
1) Right from Breach candy hospital ( coolie’s accident) to AB Corp’s failure did you feel dejected by almighty and people around you.One day a cult figure close to being worshiped and the next day same person’s house on the verge of being put on auction.DISASTER.
2} I am sure that After you successfully came back the same people who tried to avoid you earlier during lean times might have again started hovering around you for financial gains. So did you adept policy of TIT FOR TAT or you forgot and worked with them again.
3) Most importantly i would like to know that what are your thoughts about your life’s journey especially with respect to almighty,your fans and friends who deserted you in lean times.
Sir, i know that i have asked some personal questions but it is only because i have been following all the news concerning you since long.And despite going through real harrowing times you have been able to bounce back like a real hero. So SIR, KUDOS TO YOU AND I SALUTE YOUR FIGHTING SPIRIT.
LOVE AND REGARDS

accept my heartiest sympathies as ur friend
and well-wisher.GOD bless u !
hi sirji
please share something about your co stars .no doubt we will watch paa when it will release.
Dear Sir,
(Please read my letter from begning till end)
After a heart attack I am writing to you for the first time. I wanted to meet you, touch you, listen to you, chat with you and I know that it is not possible easily .
You are my HERO like millions of other people like me BUT not because of the reason that you are a film personality.
You are a decent man, simple, honest with a lot of confidence. I dont have money for my medical expenses for heart treatment but just after few hours of my heart attack my wife reminded me about you and the whole story of your recovery from the film “Coolie” shooting accident, adding that it was your will power that helped you in recovery. I swear, it boosted my confidence and since then I recovered a lot.
I am inspired by “Babu ji” (Your honble father) as my guru ji late Sri Nirankar Dev Sewak ji (A poet) was his friend.
In fact I have done some work on MADHUSHALA and I wanted your permission for its release on his birth day.
Shall I expect a call or an e mail from you?
Thanks and regards.

Dear Mr Bachchan ,
Its been long that I have been planning to write this note .
Deep in my conscience, I felt the need to thank Mr Harivansh Rai Bachchan , because mine was perhaps one of the many lives he has inspired .Thanking him through you was the only medium I could think of .
No ….I am not a great lover of poetry . But , the story goes like this ……..
I am a professional employed as General Manager India for one of the largest 5 Star premium hotel chains India . A bengali , settled in Mumbai . A year back my life came to a crash . It came to a point where I could not take life anymore ……I suffer from a immune disorder since childhood and have fought my way up in the corporate world since . There was a phase that came in my life last year where my career seemed crashing , I was going through a messy divorce , left all alone in Mumbai fighting with my health and everything else . I had stoped attending work gradually .
One of those evenings , when I sitting alone in my office and was checking my mails one of my junior collegues who knew what I have been going through sent me a mail with an attachment , and a note saying ” Sir , dont give up !”. I opened the attachment and found a hindi poem translated in english ( I am a Bengali from Kolkata and cannot read Hindi ) which read - “Koshish karne walo ki haar nahin hoti “.
Mr Bachchan , I do not know how and why , but it gave me a spirit to fight back . Its been a year since and I have not looked back in my career , had two promotions since and today head the company as General Manger for India .
As I write to you today ,the poem is well placed in a soft board in front of me since then and I make it a point to read it everytime I have been through challanges .
Now ….I dont give up anymore but remember the lines “lehron se darkar nauka paar nahin hoti , koshish karne walo ki haar nahi hoti ” .
My heart is light today ….as I convey this long awaited gratitude to a man who taught me how to fight back - Mr Harivansh Rai Bachchan .
THANK YOU .

# 188 – Lily:
My words are not adequate to express the sorrow I feel for your loss. I imagine there is no pain more far-reaching and deeper than losing a child. Faith consists in believing when it is beyond the power of reason to believe. You have to believe that Rishon Rico was here for a reason and your connection could never be broken.
My heart and prayers go out to you at this irreparable loss.
With deepest sympathy
DEAR AMITABHJI,

A more detailed review of Aladin
Yo Brother,
You were mindblowing..
That would be an overstaement.. I do not have any reasons to say so despite some fine display of expressions.. despite that extraordinary voice and talent that tantamounts to a huge mountain.. somewhere the movie got stuck into too much of music.. somewhere the movie lost its track.. somewhere there were far too many jigsaw pieces that needed to be joined together.. that despite such a technically great presentation Sujoy has failed in keeping god control of flow.. the movie does have some fine performance by you yet it fails to capture my imagination.. somehow I have a feeling that he has been louder with you than he ought to have been.. he has experimented far too much with your looks.. and sorry to say that none of it has really been impressive.. the hat in Amar Akbar Anthony suited you so much.. here with the locks of hair and grey white french looked unnatural.. somehow the make-up man failed you in appearance.. you did try to make it as attractive with your performance.. as ou you could but to differ from some others.. I think the looks are so important.. the appearance is an essential part of an actor’s armory.. the attire adds value to one’s character.. the film was weak in that sense.. the failure of the movie may not lie with anyone else but the director and make-up man..
The other drawback I felt was its overdependence on songs and music.. we all know that some of the old movies are diffciult to watch even if the songs are too good as in the case of Baiju Bawara.. here the songs were just marginal.. musc may hve been good and barring a few songs.. it did appear that Sujoy wanted to make it a musical hit.. for that there were not even a single melodious song.. Every song was based on loud music.. and your best performance if it fails to succed on the box office.. the onus may b lying elsewhere.. Ritesh did not do as well as he may be talented.. the brightest spot of the movie was Jacqueline Fernandez..She has the most charming style yet she did not match well with Ritesh as well..
If the movie had just another plot it might have succeded with all these fallacies.. yet wanting Jasmine.. then not wanting Jasmine and then again wanting Jasmine without your powers somehow director and story writer did not do their home work well.. the storyline proved to be th weakest link.. the film did appear technically very bright but that can not be considered something outstanding.. every other movie these days just has technical excellence and that is all about it..
I do hope that we have mc better outing when we go to watch teen Patti or Paa.. I may not be going for Rann as somehow my chemistry does not go well the RGV films..
With all said and done.. I do feel that the movie may still catch up decent returns if not make huge profits.. Hum Kisi se Kam Nahi (Rishi Kapoor starrer) had some pretty god numbers to support.. yet since it lacked the gripping storyline I would find it difficult to watch it second time..
With greater love to Genius - the genie of Aladin..

Its wonderful to know you and that WE are fans of our truly. Yes indeed our truly is simply great.
I came across your comments without even thinking or dreaming or a purpose. But I was glad that some magic fingers of mine clicked on your link which took me to know about the wonderful wisdom and wealth that you have written. I enjoyed reading it and remembered Fr.Errol Fernandes who visited Washington last year and even in 2008 and said there are many people there who spend lot of their time and actions doing and learning the will and teachings of God.
Best wishes to you.

I visit your blog regularly but have not submitted any comments so far. Without doubt your blog makes a very interesting reading with myriad incidents, anecdots you refer to. Above all your humility is visible both in your words and deeds.
If you make like i want to make a little suggestion. Can u put a quiz question pertaining to you , your films or any other subject , once a week. I am sure with such huge journey u had in filmdom and other fields ,we will get to know a little more thru ur quiz questions about you.

I remembered yesterday for as many souls as possible and prayed that they may be in the heavenly abode, being All Souls Day. I will continue to remember them. And I already prayed 1OF,HM,HM, GB for your Angel Rishon. I understand the circumstances and the pain, but I am so overjoyed on yours and your spouse wisdom, encouragement, gratitude for God.
Best Wishes
Mario
Lily D’Penha, great sympathy to you on this painful anniversary, when your thoughts turn even more than ever to Rishon Rico. I admire your courage in facing this most tragic loss and facing life with such warmth and generosity of spirit - a true tribute to your young angel.
With love from Daisy
Dearest Lily…comment 188,
I pray your little Rishon be basking in the midst of the Lord and I pray for the Creator to ease your family’s pain.
You can be comforted in knowing that Allah (swt) does not subject children to the accounting process which we will have to go through. For them its a glorious abode in which they will enjoy all the luxuries that we as mere mortals cannot even contemplate.
AmitJi teaches us a valuable lesson ‘Mann ka ho to accha…mann ka na ho to zyada accha’. ‘If we got what we desired then good, but if we didnt then it is even better as that is what God wanted’.
I know its easy for us to say this to you as we dont truly feel your pain but as a parent of three beautiful children I can try to imagine how life would be without the ones you love most.
I dont know if you remember, when I had my newest addition earlier this year, you sent a beautiful message through this blog. Now I understand the motive of your deepness. May Allah (swt) give you more happiness and may He never let you experience such pain ever again.
My deepest condolences and a prayer for you and your husband.
Regards
Ibrar Hussain

Love the theme music…there! I’m sure you’ll get these gushing superlatives about your performance as well. However, you’ll have to conquer the BO with this. Critical acclaim is a foregone, commercial success is of prime!

How does anyone give names?
Look at the parts of a Man:
He has an Adams apple that isn’t an apple…
Two calves that will never become cows….
A nose bridge that doesn’t cross over to anywhere…
A roof in the mouth that doesn’t cover anything…
Twenty nails that won’t hold a board…
A chest that won’t hold linen…
Two tits that won’t milk…
A belly button that won’t button…
An ass that can’t pull a plough…
An organ that can’t play music…
…And why are you laughing?????
you know it’s all true.
We must develop a proper method of naming things!
BIG B,
Good to know your shoulder pain has ameliorated.
‘PAA’ will be an experience to watch. I am all looking forward to it. I wish you and the whole team all the very best for the film.

I watched the film at the cinema and not via the link so wasn’t aware the film was missing a part so to speak.
I don’t think such domains should exist. They harm the industry and destroy livelihoods of those working within it.
Love always,

#100 Manishbhai, the car is fine, it is a 07 Focus. My work finishes this Friday so my company car goes back.
Kavin is fine, I was delighted to get belated wishes from AB.

In response to comment # 373 Rahul Dwivedi
Amitabh Bachchan is just an ordinary man like everybody else.
We made him Superhuma - HE did not came out screaming over the buildings or rooftops that he is superhuman.
Infact I believe personally that Amitabh Bachchan is SUPER HUMAN. Look at his life span. Indeed it takes a great human or super human being to come this far with the ups and downs in life.
In fact we humans fight our daily lives same as Amitabh Bachchan does.
Now YOU SAID - PAy the price of stardom and celebrity status? THIS IS SO UNFAIR,
If he is a celebrity so does that mean that he is right open in the middle to take crap from anyone accusing falsely? Just because you are not a celebrity WILL YOU TAKE CRAP WHEN SOMEONE ACCUSING YOU FALSELY????????? I bet NO
If someone comes out and talks non sense about me or my family which is false then I WON’T STAND IT and I will fight and not let him harm or hurt my dear ones.
Because AMitabh Bachchan is celebrity and an ICON to billions around the world so it is easy for some HOODLUMS media IDIOTS who want to pin him down now and then because they know that He will not dare go against them because he needs to keep his celebrity status alive.
But Amitabh Bachchan is not that. He stands against these SCUMBAGS and infact He knocks them out high and dry “ROFL” that they everyday try to come up with new evil plans to defeat the UNDEAFETABLE.
SO it is not fair to scrutinize the man so what if he is a celebrity.
ONLY Super Humans live in the hearts of millions and billions not ordinaly men/women like you and me. I am less than an Ordinary man and I have few people less as 5 who care for me not more than 5 and I am happy with that because those 5 people are honest and true carer than hundreds and thousands of cunning and opportunistic friends and relatives.
I am ordinary man and I am INVISIBLE. If there is a GIANT out there he will be noticed instantly but HAS ANYONE NOTICED THE little crawling insects or bugs on the roads whom we step over without even realising they were there and just got squashed?
If we squash the bugs unoticingly then it is OK, but if the GIANT steps around us without even harming then it is a BIG PROBLEM?
HMMMM….
People like Amitabh Bachchan comes ones in years or lifetimes. Infact he is one of the treasures of INDIA. Instead of treasuring him what do the other fellow Indians do - they try every possible way to crucify this man.
Hmm - Maybe the world loves to crucify the good people and let free the evil people - history always repeats itself but sometimes someone does challenge and stand against for his existence and fight rather than just surrender.
WAKE UP - Don’t let Media Wash Your Brains.

Hi sir !!!!!
Today second time read ur blocg sir, and this time i decide to write something on the “PAA”
Bcz “I love my PAPA”
” papa is the one who loves us so much that,some times we don’t understand him love,PAA is the one who makes use feel that we r very good,there is no one better than us”
My expectations for PAA have increased 10 fold after reading your blog. The concept of the movie is so unique and everything that is good in the film will only make it more interesting and rewarding for all the hardwork you have put in the movie. I hope and pray that you have a big success with this movie and hope that this will be a new beginning for AB Corporation for producing quality films.
All da best!!
love and regards
Manish… Indeed you are truely one of the biggest fan in Sir list.. You practise or rathe live life like him only.. Practically no rest.. Amazed.. Friend do take care of yourself..

Hello Amit ji,
It seems you’ve be having a tough time lately with one thing or the other, however it also seems as if your patience and perseverance has helped solve most of the pressing issues.
Lol, your mean you’ve never seen a Genie?
I’m sure many have ……after a few nights carousing its amazing how many Genie’s some claim to have seen! And you can bet their Genies were anything but tactful and softly spoken.
From one who has seen the occasional Genie
Marilena.
Dearest Mr. Bachchan (and all my precious EF)…
It is now 6:49AM on Tuesday morning and I have 10 minutes before I have to leave for work…I just wanted to let you know, Sir, that I absoLUTEly LOVED
ALADIN! I watched it TWICE - BACK TO BACK!!!!! I laughed out LOUD in the theatre many times…I clapped when you came onscreen…I did the ‘Kushi Natch’ in my seat when you sang the Genie Rap song…I hollered ‘WOOO HOOO!!!’ when you vanquished the gang of bad guys towards the end…I TOTALLY loved your movie…I haven’t anymore time right now (and I passed OUT last nite after I got home…) But as soon as I get back from work this afternoon, I will come back and tell you and my loving EF ALLLLLLL about my adventure! It was maybe the most fun weekend of my whole life - and it was all because of Y*O*U…
SPECIAL NOTE: Thank you, Sweet, Gentle, Precious Sister Jasmine Jaywant, for keeping me company on the phone during my trip…and thank you for relaying all my messages to our Beloved Blogji (and to our Beloved Mr. B)…
I love you for doing that…you are the Best Girlfriend EVER.
# 431 - Mondira,
Your words are very touching. Thank you !!
Where are you from ?
Manish Parmar, UK ( London ).
My dearest Mr. Bachchan,
I sincerely hope you slept soundly without that irksome pain to disturb you last night and hinder your wellbeing into another day. Sadly a respite from your gruelling schedule at this stage seems.. unlikely.
Bewildered awe is certainly the sentiment emanating from early reactions you record for ‘Paa’! What an inspiring way to begin a launch! Surely such reactions comprise ’effective marketing’ far better than promotional sprees. Do the public require a fanfare to introduce a good film - or simply a heartfelt, emotional gut reaction - I would veer towards suggesting the latter. However, at this stage in the day I cannot find evidence that Yash Chopra’s reaction or the sms have been stolen by the media and reprinted; although unsurprisingly they have plagiarized from other segments of your post!!
I knew the expectations on this film were colossal. The point about setting new benchmarks in cinema is what I always claim to admire about your recent work in general. I say this often, you are progressing Indian cinema into uncharted territory and you will eventually reap the honour in yet another sector of cinema history.
As much as the viewer craves entertainment from films, they seek innovation. Ideas that will encourage them to think outside the parameters already set. An unforgettable storyline that will draw them in so deeply, a unique empathetic bond with the characters is inevitable. The audience is eager to have those emotions which often lie dormant in the intricate depths of our psyche, stimulated and brought to the surface. Just as the gist of that lovely sms suggests, that person’s words deserve a place in the marketing of the film, especially the concluding sentiment - “Today I feel like calling my Dad … Paa”. You inspired that from … what a 30 second promo! You should be brimming with pride today Mr. Bachchan because I believe you are about to surpass that benchmark, yet again!
and yes, thankfulness to the artist is an instinctive reaction when one has is moved or entertained by the product of his art. I felt the same as the credits rolled for Aladin yesterday. Satisfied and appreciative of your hard work and the intense passion with which you deliver every expression and utterance about your craft!
I choose not to address the paragraph in which you confess guilt about 4838485. Not only because you refer to yourself as the elder, but the absurdity of the suggestion among everything else you face! Thank you for your consideration to all though, you are truly one of a kind!
I do hope 6:30am saw you at the gym again and all the work for ‘Paa’ progresses superbly without glitches, with it or your shoulder! Best of luck with the dubbing and marketing.
Wishing you a wonderful day and please keep well Mr. Bachchan.
My love,
Jasmine

Dear Genie,
How are you now? Take Rest, Meditate to get relief from the shoulder pain. Wish You good luck for everything. Be happy and safe.

hi…looking forward to see PAA
Dear Mr Bachchan,
You had once mentioned in your blog that all you need is to grow a tree in your heart and a songbird will come…i told my daughter that and she laughed..today in her blog she mentions that “Someone very special to someone very special to me, once said that all you need is to a grow a tree in your heart. A green, leafy, generous, happy, lilting sort of tree. And if you do, the songbird will come. I did. And the songbird is here. And she is a nightingale if there ever was one. :)”
Thank you sooo much.
Take care of your health…
love,
Madhu.
This is for Lily # 188,
I am truly sorry for your loss and do pray for Rishon’s precious soul to rest in peace. Take care.. Archana Detroit.
What one fan critics means to you?
I must retire … NO WAY !!
who says ?
Sir,
“PAA” will create history for sure. It will be the biggest blockbuster of all time.
This time even God can’t prevent it from becoming the “Biggest film ever”
Love you,
Ajay Lodha
Hi Sir,
I saw Aladin…sorry to say but i dont like it at all….its neither serious nor comedy..some scene are really hypothetical..ur action sequence when u fought against 10 enemies was looking like a joke…etc etc overall i think its a flop…but your hardwork is really acknowledgable…else its not worth at all…
all the best for Paa..sir…
Love you…

Most Respected Sir,
Have been trying to write to you since last 4-5 days but something’s wrong with either my comp or with BigAdda connection on Internet Explorer, at least here in Japan; it gets messed up whenever I try to post a comment.
Belated birthday wishes for a very happy & successful new year to Ms. Bachchan Jr.
The promo for ‘PAA’ is absolutely brilliant; even visited the site - as said by you. and loved the concept of “Introducing Amitabh Bachchan”.
On Oct 30, I read ToI Mumbai’s review of Aladin, which, I think shd b baseless bcoz it said that none of the songs was worth remembering or so. but, on the contrary, i’ve been listening to its songs all the while I hv been here in Japan, and am loving the songs, esp. the nos. Genie Rap & O Re Saanwariyaa. Rest, I’ll only be able to know when I come back and watch the movie, but I know one thing for sure - It’ll be a treat for me to watch you !!
So happy to know that the others are now clear about the land case in UP and soon you’ll be able to shut their mouths on the alleged- ‘Rs 500 cr’ scam too.
I hope u aren’t stressing yourself more and are taking care of the shoulder (and all other parts).
take care,
love,
ankit

Dear Bhishma Pitamah,
While your movie Paa is being readied for release… I at a small town face a peculiar situation. A son has tried to get a job in place of his deceased father… he looked after him till death and was sure that he would get the job of chowkidar in the office… for three years he was kept in wilderness with assurances by officers who used his services for their own welfare… till one day I rang the Head office and enquired and was told that he does not have any chance for the job as his time of three years has ran out…. he cried, for his life… his familys life…. today he has come to me and said that hs is going to head office to meet all… he hands me the keys of the guest house and office… I ask him when he will be back and he replies who knows ?…. I am dumb stuck… let God save him… let us all pray for his family…. let there be life on earth…. Diljit
# 188 Lily D’Penha
Dear Lily,
Sending encouragement and strength to you during this very difficult time and pray that God continues to give you both his love and shower you with blessings during your life. You will never forget your little angel and he will remain in your hearts forever. But I hope the pain and devastation you suffered for losing him continues to become a distant memory.
Lily, I had the privilege of knowing about this terrible event for some time and want to thank you for sharing your story with me earlier this year during a time I needed encouragement. I really do believe every tragic experience we suffer can bring some comfort to others in their time of need and you helped to reinforce that belief.
May God bless you both and may Rishon Rico’s soul continue to rest in peace.
With love and sympathy,
Jasmine

I am sooooooooooo happy 4 u that u had got such a precious reply from respected AB… !
Dear Sir,
Sorry to hear you have been experiencing pain the shoulder. I am glad you managed a good nights sleep and that the painkillers helped. From what I know about such pains and the frequency of it, it seems as yet you have not been able to find a solution, other than painkillers, that works. I would assume it took many years for the pain to get to this stage…the frequency as well as the severity.. and may require a long term treatment. Dare I say years of neglect! I believe the old-fashioned Indian vaid (or is it vaidya) can at times do a better job than perhaps doctors/physiotherapists. If it is a trapped nerve the vaidya will know straightaway. Kerala comes to mind. The message, the physiotherapy is simply the best. I would try that at least for a couple of months. If the pain still persists, there is the renowned Harly Street in London. Good luck.
I am glad you were able to contribute further to the 26/11 tragedy.
PAA - the feedback you have had so far seem to be very genuine. I am so pleased. From what I know so far it could turn out to be an emotional experience for all who will see it. I think there will be a lot of Oooo..s and Aaaaaaas when it comes to Auro’s personality. I wouldn’t want to speculate any more. It is going to be different, it is going to be a brave attempt, it will be hailed for an outstanding performance! All the Best!
Something has been on my mind all morning which I would like to share with you if you don’t mind. In the Times News there is an article titled “Outcry as half a million animals are sent to slaughter for Hindu sacrifice”…it goes on to say “Plans to sacrifice more than 500,000 animals during a two-day religious festival in Nepal this month have met with the wrath of animal rights activists.” I am not surprised..I am outraged at this kind and level of
“sacrifice.” In the name of religion…the human race brings shame upon itself.
Love,
Daksha
Dear Lily in Germany,
Someone’s comment drew my attention to your comment. I am so sorry you lost your child before it was born and that too due to human error. I would like you to know you remain in my thoughts and I shall pray for him and your family tonight. I hope and pray that you and your husband will find very soon your lost happiness. I wish you all the best. I pray everything works out well for you. God bless.
Dear Renate, is it your son who is not well? Please let him know this aunty wishes him well!
Tatiana from U.S…please give a kiss and a cuddle to your bunny from me and hold him tight and with love on my behalf, will you? Thank you.
My love to ALL EFs.

Dear Satyam ,it is a common practice for Amitabh Ji’s fan , that they like him very much . They see his old movies but not go to theatre for his new Movies.
They compare 70’s Amitabh with present Amitabh. This is not fair and this is the main reason why his new films does not Opens Huge. Otherwise he still has the largest fan following in India but majority of them do not go to theatres.
Hey AMIT JI !
Again saw some replies from you.
But not for me:(
Try again,again,again and may be
succeed !
love u,
take care,
khuda hafiz.
I’ve just come back to check my comment made it! I mean into your blog Sir! Nop, it is still showing as under moderation. Good luck to me.
By the way, it should have been Harley Street in London.
Dear Sir,
Anxiously waiting for PAA !!!
it would be great if you can share the promo of PAA on your blog
Love you !!!

Dear AB Jii ,
Im not a great fan of hindi films cz i dont really understand hindi language but when it comes to your movies…i dont want to miss it. You always been my pa’s favorite hero. He is no more now but i know he would have been a great father just like you….I wish all the best for PAA and im looking forward to watch it

another mystery ….. 838485…. some days back also some number u wrote… anyways, some-how have not seen alladin… infact it has been quite some-time when i watched any bollywood flick (last one if i’m right was love-aaj-kal). I believe movies on tv itself suffices the hunger…. though… reading about PAA does arise eagerness….
energy level of ur day-in n day-out does motivate me…… <> … njoy n tc….
Dear Amitabh Sir,
Its really nice to have a person like you in our country. The love,care, affection you show for your people n your EF makes me a great fan of yours. I’m really touched and hoping to see PAA asap.
All my love n respect to you.
Please take good care of your health.

PB #240 Thank you for such a wonderful post. It made a good and informative read. Victory has hundred fathers - nobody owns defeat. There is always somebody’s fault. Sujoy is young director and stand up for in a most diffcult hour is indeed a noble act.
One must fall to value importance of standing.
I am sure AB’s words must have given Sujoy tons of strength to pick-up the threads and move on. If you are kind to others in their difficult hour - they in turn will be kind to some other people in their difficult hour. I am sure Sujoy will be as kind as AB during some other person’s difficult hour.
Thank you PB for wonderful post!
Daksha and Amitabh Zibbu,
Thankyou very much for your words of encouragement and sympathy. Just posted a thankyou to all those who were so generous and noticed there were two new comments from both of you.

Thank you for being there.

Please take care and love,

i know & agree in this matter. as i stated i never watched a movie this way before. infact i didn’t watch this one either .just checked 1st & last part out of curiousity.thats all. i am not a very big Hindi /Indian movie fan. however i like to go thru the one with great review from friends & family once in a while. i don’t rely on media review though(just FYI). in my opinion its better to watch original English ones than remakes in Hindi. if not a remake in totality then its a repeatition of some old scenes from some old Hindi movies. all mumbo jumbo you know ! if you watched Aladin ,you know what i am saying.
though its a valid point, in this techno world of today in away one is helpless i guess. all are aware of such kind of piracy not only Indian movies or music but it prevails thru out the world in different areas. unless those kind of laws are made and implimented strictly,its going to happen again & again..none can help otherwise.
i believe AB also wrote such kind of response to your post.
have a good one !
Monalisa ( with mysterious smile !!!!!! haha…… )
waiting for promo of paa……………
This is the first time i am writing something to you sir. I don’t know English very well, but when today i visited at this blog, i couldn’t prevent me to write something to you directly. I started using internet from my home for 4-5 days, when i bought Reliance High speed data card. I am a software engineer. I read some poems of pujya Harivansh roy bachchan ji in my childhood named “Need ka nirman phir phir”. This was my first introduction with him. Can i write here 4 lines from one of my poem ? its as follows :
जिन्दगी बहुत रंगीन है,
रंग भरना सीखो.
हर पल में खुशियों के,
फूल खिलाना सीखो.
Dear Amitji…..

sir i want to say that i want to see u without beard and moustage in your future projects because u look outstanding in without beards and moustage .
Respected Sir,
I am an ardent fan of yours. I just hope to probably meet you once in my lifetime, well sir I happened to see you interview with Barkha Dutt on NDTV24*7 - “The Buck stops here”. It was simple fantastic. En I really think that you should definitely respond back to the false allegations made aginst you - in today’s worls if one stays quiet he is assumed to be guilty. en I guess if you respond then people surely think twice before making the next allegation.
It was simple awesome and amazing sir.
hello sir… i met you in the year 1978-79 i dont remeber for sure i was of the age of abhishek you were shooting for the film silsila in Srinagar……i at the age of 5 then used to BREATHE … n DREAM Amitabh Bachan……In a persons childhood at that age there are very few instances or moments which reamin imprinted on ones mind let me say “soul”,coming within few feet of u was one , i still remember ur outstretched hand to me bt the small boy in me could handle the excitement n i just went numb..
after Agneepath… i havent seen the Amitabh that the 5 yr old boy soul has an imprint of on his soul … ive never followed your blog but seeing u on NDTV with BARKHA and talking about it i wanted to find you again discover the Amitabh with made me sing out DISHUM DISHUM..n kick all the kickable pebbles on the road….im wondering what PAA about i would like to see it
jaskaran panag
SIR. I wish a good health, happiness, love from all soul!!! Let always success accompanies you!!! And life would be gap-filling large gladness, merriment!!! With all heart
Dear AmitJi
people say everything is fair in love and war….and friend has one wish. get me one hug from “My Bachchan” and I wll marry you. My seven years of love is not enough for her. I myself is your big fan but fail to understand this logic of hers. anyway “koshsh karne waloon ki kabhi har nahi hoti ” one “Hi to her” from you will take to me to engagement state atleast. though i will hate that your 10 sec effort will win over my 7 years of “tapasya”
love you
Sanjay
HELLO Mr.Аmitabh-jee
Thank you very much for congratulations. I am very very very happy and flattered. My nephew recklessly likes an actor your colleague and friend Mr. Shahrukh Khan. He is a little put restraint you to write about the request. He simply dreams to receive message ot him, but for him it is not such blog as for you. Would not you could to help my nephew??????????????????????????????????
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY VERY VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear Sir,
Saw the paa website, brilliant background music, excellent marketing process (i am checking every day for the update, so it succed in curiosity factor, hopefully Balki maintains the same curiocity level in Promos). I have watched all most all of your movies. one of your biggest fan and also a cinema Fan. I mean generally i will see around 60 to 70 movies per year. this is the routine i am following from past 15 to 20 years. I genuinely feel now only youths are coming to the theatre to watch the movies, family audiences especially ladies are literally boycotted the theatre (Thanks to Multiplex & TV). I was thinking, we need family oriented movies like Hum apke Hai koun, Bhagban etc to bring back Middle class ladies / women /family audience to the theatre. but after seeing Paa Promo, i feel Paa has that X factor to pull the lady / family audience. I know you would have done extensive research to market PRomo for the youth & Multiplex audience. but i request you to relook into the women/family audience factor and come with some good promos to pull them back to the theatre. I wish all the BEST to PAA and all other upcoming movies. May God Bless PAA, ABCL and we pray almighty to bless the Paa, ABCL for much needed commercial Success as well as critical acclaim. I want your performance to be rememembered as the BEST ever when Paa is Released.

Dear Boss,
As I write this , you are also on my TV screen here in Qatar on NDTV 24X7 with Toph-Ka-Gola Barkha Dutt (I nick named her with this tag long time back, when she did that Kargil live telecast and used the word….ek aur Toph-Ka-Gola…abhi-abhi udhar gira hai….few seconds later…..she shouted again aur ek……idhar gira hai, ……….Barkha Ji …..war mein gola nahi toh kya ola girga? )
Nice seeing you talking about EF’s and their importance in your life, rest of the interview was just cut-copy-paste….wohi roz ki kit-kit………loved it.

I think you hit the nail on the head. It’s hard to stop such piracy and infringement however as you stated tightening security measures is surely the way to go.
I also hate duplication of films. Western films being remade for an Indian cinema audience. Surely that world can’t have lost it’s imagination to that extent.
Let’s all be original and be inspired to inspire. If that makes sense.
Love always,
Manish Parmar, UK.
Respected Sir,

Dear Amitji,
Thanks for responding to my review of Aladin. I would have liked some comments on it. But like I teach others, sometimes the best way of receiving feedback is to say thank you!
I was watching you talk to Barkha just now. I am amused that your blog grabs all the attention. Thank you for acknowledging the FmXT. Honoured to be a part of it.
And Pettsy…. your mail was focussed by the NDTV cameras! Lucky you!

Dear Sir,
I am an orthopaedic surgeon by profession and so was extremely disturbed to know that you have this shoulder pain causing you to pop the pill.Having been a witness to the excitement of the great AB through my growing years , being a part of the coin throwing public when the great AB sang ‘yeh muquaddar ka sikandar’ riding a motorbike I feel your pain in every joint of my body and feel the urgency to reach by your side at the earliest and offer my little professional expertise to alleviate your pain.Please keep well and working as you are a great part of the life of our whole generation and any pain or sadness in you makes this whole generation cry in sympathetic agony
with deepest admiration
Goodevening Sir,
Comment number 511 I doubt if you would have the time to go through it ..neverdless..I shall post …in simple lines an ardent 34 year old fan of yours. Year 75 born I think I got intoxicated to Amitabh Bachachan from 80 …since I started understaning movies. Whatever yoy say, do , write is true for me.
However in years, I was a bit disappointed today by a statement I just heard on NDTV ..( ur interview with Barkha Dutt) and you sure gave your reasons on the show on being asked - Why would you not speak against people who use force to (MNS) to prove a point. I do quite unapprove (ofcourse u gave ur reasons) of the line that - Silence is important for peace) and its your individual right to maintain silence or speak about it…BUT and BUT you have an influencing effect on all us..if you stand up against what is wrong we shall be backing you, if strong Individuals like you keep quite about certain issues where will we (common man) go..Yes you are a common man too- BUT with a Differnce, that you will be heard.
However, I just gave vent to what I felt and you may be right in your own way.
thank you for your views .. love
Just saw your Interview on NDTV . It was nice.
Hey Mr B
Caught your interview with Barkha Dutt on NDTV. You did very well. When you replied, it almost felt like us ( you and EF) were on one side and she on the other.
you impress me always Mr B. More power to you.
love and hugs

Just saw your interview with Barkha Dutt on NDTV 24X7, and realized that out of everything that you said, one statement in particular stood out “we are humans and we make mistakes…and we should learn from them”. In this world, where everyone wants to epitomizes perfection and is “flawless” it came as a refreshing surprise that you would celebrate mistakes and accept them as part of the journey. We, as mortal humans (the non-celebrity types), choose to forget that behind every god-like must-always-be-correct superstar lies a human being in quiet anticipation for that one chance to be, well, normal. Thank you, for at least trying.
Lily D’Penha-Frankfurt-Germany !
Hope these some comments may
reduce your 0.01 % sorrow.Indeed,
its a great lost which is unbearable
but may be,may be you atleast try
to forget your sadness to some extent
and this all Extended Family and its
leader AMIT JI are with you and Their
prayers with ur son too.
May His Soul Rest In Peace !
love u ,
Khuda hafiz.
Dear Amitji,
I am writing to you for the first time as I was watching your interview on NDTV 24×7 just now. I was trying to find your blog for some time but could not really get the same due to limited searching on net because of work.
I have been always facinated by you since my childhood and have been watching all your movies. Just saw “Aladin” on Sunday. I think this must be very common for all your fans. I have seen lot of bollywood stars while travelling for business within India, but unfortunately did not got a chance to see you. Till now whenever I travel I always feel that I will be able to meet you sometime at the airport some where. I am not sure when god will fulfill my wish.
But I want to write to you one more thing that apart from me (and my wife), my 10 years old son is big fan of you and Abhishek. He will be overjoyed if he will be able to meet you. You may find this stupid or common wish by your fans, but we really really really wish to meet you once in our life. We would like to request you to write to me on my email whenever this can be possible. I will be more than happy to just meet you only even for 5 or 10 minutes with my family. I stay in Thane.
Dear Amitji
Just saw your NDTV interview with Barkha! It was very interesting. I have seen several interviews of yours. You make each one of them special. How do you manage that? You have so much depth and understanding and your demeanor is just charming and awe inspiring.
I really liked your answer to Barkha’s qestion about you being engimatic. Your answer to question about blog being an obsession was not only interesting but heart warming as well. You seemed so even minded when you said that there is abuse on the blog and people question you on your blog. You seem to have taken everything in your stride. That’s what makes you so egnimatic and special.
Love & Warm Wishes

Dear Mr Bachchan,
I am currently in the US and just saw your recent interview with Barkha Dutt on ndtv live tv.. It was very interesting to hear your viewpoint regarding your blog being “YOUR” medium to clarify your point of view and serve as a vehicle to defend yourself against the mistakes committed by the media.
Infact, the interview prompted me to visit thi sblog for the first time!!
We met about 22 years ago.. on the outdoor set of Shehensha in Ooty and I came upto you and asked you to take my autograph.. I was just 7 years of age.. but I do remember the moment vividly.. Just wanted to ask you if you do remember it as well.. Sometimes when I think about it I begin to laugh.. I laugh at my ignorance albeit the expression on your face was priceless.. You are truly an inspiration.. May God Bless you and keep you in good health - gaurav
Hi,
I was watching your interview on a news channel with Barkha Dutt , it was really a treat to view that two of my all time favourites were on screen…a double treat…again a question which was left unanswered was that you are never a real self while you face interviews . With your flowery language and prompt replies you tend to dominate the interviewer, every time you give neutral and diplomatic replies. These kinds of chats can be rated the best in the world but not the most real ones. Why do you always behave in a predetermined manner? Why not be real and live? Is it required to behave in this manner when somebody has reached the pinnacle like you have? Where is that chanchal sa man and mitti ka tan ?
Sir, there is big water leakage near my building since 4 months & I have complained the issue to every possible authority including the local media but nothing happened so I gave up the hope last month & but I have just watched ur interview with Burkha Dutt & came to know that how long u fought for justice without giving up hope. HATS OFF TO U SIR b’cause I’m just 21 & lost so early.
I promise u from tommorow I will again try for it with even more enthusiasm. THANKS FOR THE INSPIRATION.
Dear Amitji
I just saw PAA website. The animation is good and the music heavenly! Who’s the music director/composer? Is it Illayraja for the website signature tune as well?
The music resembles great work of arts by Mozart and Beethoven. It’s some kind of symphony that the music composer has created. Rare,esquisite…simply awesome!
If this kind of music is used in PAA, then I am sure it will be big success not only in India but oversees as well.
All the best to you and entire crew and cast of the film!
Warm Wishes

Hi Sir, (dont know how to address you, you are 15 yrs elder to my father also)
I am a first time visitor to your blog n I have come with a purpose.
Just saw your interview wid Barkha Dutt on NDTV 24*7.
And I felt a certain uneasiness while watching the interview. She was deliberately trying to scratch your scars and that too in an unsympathetic way. That sounded a bit rude to me! I liked when you told her that “Why you need to comment on her perception or opinion??”
Do you really need to take their non sense now at this age of yours!?
With Best Regards,

Pranam To dearest Chorea ganga kinare wala……………Sir 1st of all all the best for PAA and promise you that I will support to stop piracy of film from my frnd family and colleague …I beliv if every one do this we can stop piracy..
WISH U ALLLLLLLLL THE VERY BEST FOR WHAT EVER U DO..
Saket
response to post 330 - salmaan - shouldnt dumb posts like that be moderated !!? Seriously get a life salmaan… that was stupid.
Hi Mr. Bachchan,
I saw your interview with Barkha Dutt on NDTV, the way you replied to her was amazing. Sorry to ask, but how many retakes have you taken to provide such polished replies? I don’t know how you can tolerate such questions which normally annoy any human being, if being asked, just because of the fact that you are popular. Sometimes, I think you are blessed with an outstanding personality with an amazing protective power and a matured voice that makes you be in the front line always. Mr. Bachchan I wish good health and a continued contentful life for you. Keep doing well.
Regards,
Dev

Translation by Shree Aurobindo
Mother, I bow to thee!
Rich with thy hurrying streams,
bright with orchard gleams,
Cool with thy winds of delight,
Dark fields waving Mother of might,
Mother free.
Glory of moonlight dreams,
Over thy branches and lordly streams,
Clad in thy blossoming trees,
Mother, giver of ease
Laughing low and sweet!
Mother I kiss thy feet,
Speaker sweet and low!
Mother, to thee I bow.
Who hath said thou art weak in thy lands
When the sword flesh out in the seventy million hands
And seventy million voices roar
Thy dreadful name from shore to shore?
With many strengths who art mighty and stored,
To thee I call Mother and Lord!
Though who savest, arise and save!
To her I cry who ever her foeman drove
Back from plain and Sea
And shook herself free.
Thou art wisdom, thou art law,
Thou art heart, our soul, our breath
Though art love divine, the awe
In our hearts that conquers death.
Thine the strength that nervs the arm,
Thine the beauty, thine the charm.
Every image made divine
In our temples is but thine.
Thou art Durga, Lady and Queen,
With her hands that strike and her
swords of sheen,
Thou art Lakshmi lotus-throned,
And the Muse a hundred-toned,
Pure and perfect without peer,
Mother lend thine ear,
Rich with thy hurrying streams,
Bright with thy orchard gleems,
Dark of hue O candid-fair
In thy soul, with jewelled hair
And thy glorious smile divine,
Lovilest of all earthly lands,
Showering wealth from well-stored hands!
Mother, mother mine!
Mother sweet, I bow to thee,
Mother great and free!
Proud of my Motherland!
An Indian always!

The early birds catch the yellow…hmmmm…. cant help it , but I aint good at that. So I guess I will have to wait. Would be grateful for the strip before eight Nov. when I go to hospital, for surgery. And let me remind you, my birthday coincides with your father’s. I think it is not too tall a wish to wish for a wish from Genius… sounds rhythmic… I did a good job.
Affectionately
dear brother amit ji ,
first of all hallow to you, and second thing i want to say you that my english is not so good ….. isliye aage main hindi main hi likhoongi. main bohat chotti si thi jab se main aapki films dekhti aa rahi hu . aur main aapki bohat badi fan hu, main aapke liye bus itna hi kehna chahti hu ki aap hamari film industry ke himalaya ho, bhagwan aapko lambi umar de.
im a simple guy..new to this blog..i cant digest the fact that im typing to a person who is so enigmatic…but what i could see in u is that ..u r so normal human deep inside…it inspires me…. honestly !! But im afraid im getting too honest now..coz i have never been a real fan of yours…but it was never the case hating you in any way ! One thing what ive been noticing you about is that ur so correct ,practical the way you talk . I wish i was like you ..i wish i was so correct and practical in my approach…today i can say that im real fan of urs not because you are sucha star but only because you are such nice personality !!
i hope ur forthcoming film PAA does great..i hope its more of a good film rather than a box office hit …i hope the sky remains beautful as it has been all the time..i hope the pacific is as blue as it has been my dreams..i hope you remain forever by being the 6th element of nature..i hope !!
Dear AB sir,
Pranam!
Watched your interview on NDTV.
Your reply as to why u believe in Blog more compared to media(third party) was absolutely true . Very few celebrities can say this to media.
Media thinks that common man will only get the picture what they present to us through print or tele media.
I feel if you start writing columns for print media, then your thoughts and views on this blog may get diluted.
A great admirer of AB,
Praveen
Dear Sir,
Wish u all the success for “PAA”, its been long time we have not visited multiplex due to lack of good movies…but it started again after “Aladdin”. Thanks for giving us good cinema.
Keep on replying Dear BIG B !
But see there is also a die hard,
crazy fan of yours………;)

I just finished watching that interview with Barkha….Let me tell you something, which i have felt about that interview, for the first i found Barkha being…redundant, although you may say you are not intimidating, but look at Barkha……..I mean …..she kept on asking the same old things….again and again and again…….i was an intern in NDTV some time back…i know how much preparation goes behind an interview.. Barkha makes sure of everything…but believe i thought she was some what ….. mesmerized by the way you answered some of the damn personal questions….I am from the media fraternity as well. ….. so it was good to see a media stalwart searching for words……Any ways , i haven’t seen the promo of PAA (yet)….I am looking forward to it….. As my father always says “Great men are great because they re-explore a new dimension of themselves every single day.”…..That fits your iconic image as well…. I may be a great fan of contemporary actors but i believe you are the benchmark, which they try to touch……Thanks for giving so much to our cinema……I am quite late to join your blog … but i am glad that i did join it…..” Der aaye Durust aaye”

Dear Sir,
Just saw Aladin with family, the movie was awesome, loved the special effects, and my 3 year old loves Genius. I think there can be sequel to this. Dr.Naser can collect the broken mirror (in which the ringmaster got trapped) head to egypt/peru/greece/china etc to get a scroll that can bring Ring master back. More special effects, and more of Genius. it would be wonderful. I have a lot in mind - wont fit in the blog.
regarding the review, that you mentioned, I think the person who wrote it didnot see (I meant listen) to the movie, there is a scene where Al asks Gene, why are you dressed like this and the answer was its his style. For a pesimistic and underconfident person like AL, the script required that the GENE be extremely flambouant to attrack AL’s attention.
My wife is iranian and she loved the movie very much. She told me that even the younger actors cant perform like you do, and guess what the dialogue on the screen was ” I am still a teenager DUDE”
I loved the songs, specially –Make a wish–
Regarding PAA, i cant wait to see the movie.
God bless.

Hello Sir,
I am reading your blog for the first time and I really liked it. Just caught your interview on NDTV and there was so much talk on your blog so I really thought to have a look at it.

sorry for your loss. its really very upsetting that such things happens in today’s world too where science has progressed so much & all kind of facilities are available. what was your gynaecologist thinking? did you & your husband take any action against him/her or not? such errors are quite unpardonable where its a matter of Life or can make someone disable in certain way.
may God give you & your husband the strength. may your son’s (Rashod)soul rest in peace.
even if you didn’t go thru such tragic & horrible heart breaking experience in your life one can understand your point about surrogagate mother’s topic. even i have my opinion about such things! and certainly one has a right to put forward what & how exactly one feels about any given topic/issue. that happens in every family. different mindset, different opinions ! but hey ! after all we are all FmXt ! Aren’t we?!!
Dear Amitji,
I am one of your countless admirers you have got. Right from my childhood i have enjoyed the “Angry Young Man” image, which depicted the mentality of the youth, then. I still remember when i was a kid (in 1980’s), my aunt who was then settled at Mumbai, used to tell me that she with my uncle had tea in your house, & i believed it till i grew older enough to understand the Plot to make monkey out of me
Anyhow, could we see you sooner or later in a bollywood movie based on Hindu mythology? I would dream to see you as ‘Pithamah Bheeshma’.
Thanks & Regards,
Sudhakar.
Hi Sir,

waiting….. for blog and for paa eagerly……

Hi Sir,
With due respects, I would like to say that please donot take up the task of writing columns in newspapers. I think you are already overburdened with the work you do, cinema,tv,Iffa work, TV adds and the list goes on. And you also take out time daily to write to us. I was hearing your interview with Barkha Dutt today where you said that now writing on blog has slowly become a compulsion for you , so why to take one more task which will start from obligation and soon become a compulsion.I think your blog is best thing for you to connect with people. Simple reason being on blog only those people will visit who want to do so,who care for your views, who wants to read your views but if you start writing in newspapers whose reachability is to everyperson then you are bound to get much more reactions. In addition to that on blog you write whatever you want, it may be about your work , your daily life ..anything. If I am correct then in newspapers you will be probably writing on the events happening in country. Today only I listened you saying to Barkha that you donot wish to comment on what is not related to you. e.g you refused to comment on 26/11. Will you be comforatable in writing on such things in future, I don’t think so. You are a good writer, thinker , who writes from heart but in the end you are not a journalist. So please think twice before you take any such step. I know I am too small to suggest you but all I want and wish is good and happy life for you.
Will lots of love & regards,
Sanchit Saxena

Namaste Babumousi,
This is Ashish agarwal from your very own City of Joy.You are the real “Shahenshah” of the Indian Cinema and the true “DON” of our heart beats, It really amazes me which all the “Agneepath” and “Raaste Kaa Patthar” you have face in your life but still you are “Muqaddar Ka Sikandar”.No matter where we go from “Bombay to Goa” we all love U, aur mein “Ganga Ki Saugandh” leke kar telling U that i have seen all your movies.
“Kabhi Kabhie” “Chhoti Si Baat” “Do Anjaane” ki “Manzil” “Ek Rishtaa” mein badal deti hain,like yours and indian cinema.
No matter if there is only “Saat Hindustani” in any country we still remember about your “Pyar Ki Kahani” with Jaya Ji in “Guddi” “Abhimaan”. It is famously said that one needs only 3 things in life “Roti Kapda Aur Makaan” but world without you is like “Benaam”.I also admire the “Kasauti” which you have kept in your “Dost” when we have such a “Andha Kanoon”, you are truly “Aaj Ka Arjun” who have his “Zameer” intact.
Aap ko mera KOTI KOTI PRANAM ki aapne hume itne khusi ki mooka diya..
I am 22 year old and i have an elder sister her birthday in on 14th November and she is turning 28. She is a very big fan of your and she admires you very much.
And i need a small favour from you, i know sir you are very busy and you get so many request like this but this mean very much to me as my sister would be very happy for it.
I want you to make a small video in which you are wishing her Happy birthday and any message you will like to give.
her name is sharadha agarwal. I would really appreciate and thankful whole my life to you if you can please do this.
my email id is ashisharyan@gmail.com
Thank you…

you sound bit angry in today’s post. one thing caught my eye was partisans. it prevails everywhere i believe. what can one do? some ppl feel safe that way. some just show humility in public actually they don’t possess that quality and be biased ! what you gonna do? (not pointing fingers at AnyOne. it a general statement) thats what make ppl Different in all/many aspects. We all are Different so do the Stars of Filmy sky.
some we like some we don’t. some one is like North Star , some are like all other and some of them are like comets.
First always remains First no one can replace that. whosoever comes after is obviously Second,no matter how long it prevails.
i believe there shall not be any comparision amongst unless they copy some one. every candle or incense stick has a different fragrance. just enjoy the ones you like and leave the rest aside or give it out as a Gift . BTW Thanksgiving & Xmas is around the corner ! hehe…..
P.S. too many points you made there to discuss.i felt rather not to touch those. but i believe ,if not all , some are open to fair & healthy discussion !
valorie dont lose heart thou shall get the gold soon ,see sirji says i read all comments,so patience
AMITA !

Dear Amitji,
At last i got my internet connection at my home and the very first thing i am doing is to write some comments on your blog. Thanks to the internet guy who just completed the installation late night.
Sir i just want to tell you one thing ‘Amitabh Bachchan Rocks’ and ‘All the best’ from me for all your future endeavors, may god fulfill all your dreams.
I have a wish to meet you sir and i don’t know whether my wish will come true or not but i have full faith in god almighty that a day will come when i will meet the legend of Indian Cinema ‘Amitabh Bachchan’.
Cheers,
Manish
It will be the best movie!!!PAA.
Dear Amit Ji,
I can not just wait to watch Paa… just a thought of it is giving Goose Bumps. Some movies… just by nature of it, you know that are going to be outstanding… Can not wait for seeing yet another mind-boggling, mind-satisfying performance from you…
My heart beats are on rampage in anticipation…
Good luck,
Rajesh

ENJOYABLE SUPER HIT MOVIE.
DONT LOOK INTO THE RATINGS OR CRITICS

ITS ENJOYABLE COMPLETELY.
AS FAR AS THE DRESSES U WORE OR OF THE GINI IS SAID TO WEAR NORMALLY.
AS U HAVE ALREADY SAID ,NO ONE HAS SEEN A GINI IN REAL LIFE.
SO HOW COME THEY SAY WHAT A GINI WEARS AND DO AND WHAT NOT.
A GINI FIRST OF ALL IS A CHARACTER THAT CAN TAKE ANY SHAPE OR DRESS
,HE/SHE NEVER WEARS THAT OLD TYPE WHICH THE CARTOONS OF THE OLDER

JUST GIVE ENOUGH TIME,HERE AND THERE,TO CHANTING,PRAYERS AND MADITATION.
UR MOVIES R THE ONES WHICH ALL THE TIME REFRESH EVERYONE EVERYWHERE.
U R THE GREATEST THERE .
NEVER THINK ANYTHING NAGETIVE ,AT ALL.
U HAVE LOOSED NOTHING BUT EARNED GOOD THINGS IN LIFE FOR U AND UR
WHOLE FAMILY AND MADE THE COUNTRY FEEL PROUD .
EVERY ACTOR ,WHO SO-EVER HAVE GROWN IMMITATING U .TODAYS ACTORS JUST REPEAT
INCORRECTLY, WHAT U HAVE DONE PERFECTLY AGAIN AND AGAIN .
THEY THEMSELF WANT TO BE OF AS HUGE A STATURE AS URS .
BUT WHEN THEY FIND IT IMMPOSSIBLE TO EVEN GET NEAR TO THE HANDSOME
PERFECT PERSONALITY OF URS ,THEN THEY GET IRRITATED AND START
TO TEASE THEMSELVES BY WATCHING THEIR OWN WORK AND OF URS AND FINDING
THAT EVEN THEY R UR FANS AND THEY R FINDING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO RESIST
THEMSELVES IN BEING UR FANS AND ADMIRERS .
U R THAT MUCH PERFECT AS A PERSONALITY- HUMAN AND ACTOR AND SO ON.
SO ,GIVE URSELF GREAT PEACEFULL SLEEPS AND HAPPY WAKING UPS.

may all ur wishes comes true…..
wishing u & ur family great success & lots of love…….
keep smiling AMITJI……..:)
Dear Amit Ji,
Hello, I hope you are doing absolutely fine
..its my first interaction with you, thanks to your interview with barakha dutta which was aired tonight which motivated or rather promted me to interact with you tonight.
I have been an ardent fan of yours over the years & will certainly continue to be the one in future..its an absolute pleasure to watch most of your movies though not all of them
……
Everytime when I get a chance to listen to your interview, I cant stop admiring you..the way you speak, the way you interact with the other person, the way you conduct yourself, everything is so perfect !! No flattery Mr Bacchan, but believe me its a learning… its a learning how to be so humble, how to keep calm, how to handle difficult situations, how to be so down to earth even after achieving so much in your life, upbringing of children etc……..All n all its so imressive.
Today you have given me the motivation to write again, write what i feel, the hobby which was put aside due to the work pressure in our day to day job where we slog every day to survive !!!
Thanks alot & I wish you all the success for your upcoming film PAA …It wil be yet another Block buster.
Cheers !!
With best regards,
Prafulla Phadke

Love, Respect & Regards

Mr. Bachan, my name is Nidhi Addanki. I am 12 years old. I have seen many of your movies, including Sholay, but my comment is not commented to this post that you have written, what i have to ask is that how do you feel when you have people come up to you and say ” Amitabh, you are a true role model” or have you had people ask you that? i also want to know if you like having a different age grouped fan base
Sincerely,
Nidhi
Delighted to see Mr Bachchan, giving so much happiness on the blog, we are sure that you are with us everyday, but the yellow strip is the most concrete proof of this!
#530 Zainab, happy for you darling, and thank you for the words so sweet and kind as your soul, you share if you like your yellow line cons interview I am sure to win in the exchange, but I could not deprive you of a deserved happiness lit’ sister
Love you
I was regularly watching big boss until today, I think its so heartbreaking to see what is happening in the house. Tanaaz and Bakhtiyaar are the sweetest people and they are being treated so badly by everyone. Please let them be in the house :((( Also I hope people throw that insanely horrible vindu and psycho rohit out of the house.
Dearest Amitji,
I am disappointed that I didnt get the yellow tag and got the one before and after me ! Wondering what it takes to get an yellow tag ???? I have been writing from Day 1 and I dont expect always but one time I do…. Rest its upto you. bye for now..
Luv U Always,
Srinivas Kappagantula
Great to know the anti-inflammatory works wonders. I’ve been taking the same as well with water. Begun my fight in court against the police and the medical school. The law school backed out. That’s one down and two to go. My previous tryst with the police was in a california court in 1998 and I won at that time. Its taken me this long to return to court thanks to the wonderful anti-inflammatory.
Chanakya (from days of Chandragupta Maurya) has written about the duties and rights of kings, ministers and other ‘officers’. He also lays down guidelines on various affairs of the state, law, diplomacy, trade and commerce, war and peace, marriage and divorce and on military strategy. He is India’s best on political diplomacy and economic affairs (albeit getting up to date now).
Although you (Mr Amitabh Bachchan) and Mr Shah Rukh Khan are tipped to become the President & Prime Ministers of India respectively, Hrithik Roshan has been encouraged to move in here permanently after UC Berkeley and Rahul Gandhi too after Stanford respectively.
After resorting to open advertising using the Jingle/JungleRock tool, we are now resorting to traditional forms of communication. FYI, I’ve been raising a lot of ruckus about war and peace on Locke’s (from Ender) forum on twitter.

Hello Amit Ji
Saw ur interview on ndtv with Barka Dutt, somehow got an impression that u were that extra conscious during the interview. Just wanted to know was it because of the journalist or something else, if at all it was that way. Will appreciate ur comment on this.

I came across something on TV last night. It not only moved me to tears but scared me a little too. It goes something like this. A man was running from a tiger and reaches the edge of a cliff. He slips off the edge and is hanging off the vine, looks down and sees another tiger at the base of the cliff looking up at him.
He feels the vine shaking and notices a black mouse and a white mouse gnawing at the vine. He looks to the right and sees a small strawberry plant with just one strawberry on it. He plucks and eats it, it was the darn best strawberry he’d ever tasted.
I am not proselytizing here but I am sure we all felt the point in our lives, ok, minus the strawberry :).
my dear Lily d’penha…

Dear Amitabhji, this one might take you away from your recent blog’s purview but couldn’t resist writing about what happens to a commoner in “actual” in the media industry…. It only demands and respects ‘connections’ with big people or reference or some kind of jack/money ( excuse me for that word )
The auditions for Bigg Boss Season 3 ( non-celebrity entry) happened on 26th Oct, 2009 , Monday at a hotel Grand Sarovar Premier, Goregaon , Mumbai.
I have been a great fan of yours as well as Bigg Boss and even lucky enough to be called for the auditions as I had called a number displayed on TV for the same… I cleared the ‘GD round’.. got short-listed for ‘introduction in front of camera round’.. it was very innovative and liked by the judge who again short listed me for the ‘final interview in front of camera round’.. which again was highly appreciated by both the judges !
But to my utter dismay, I was not the person chosen by BIGG BOSS management as I dont have any contacts or reference..
I really fail to understand that if such culture prevails, how come we people especially me who has tremendouns tremendous potential to act ( not blowing my trumphet but there is no person in Nagpur who after meeting me has slightest of doubt that I cant make in big on screen..) will ever flourish…
Its such a pain… and I am dis-appointed by the way things are going on..
TALENTED IS NOT GIVEN CHANCE , WHICH HE IS WORTH.
YOU MUST BE BORN IN HOME OF A STAR TO BECOME A STAR.
I know anyone’s reaction on this will be ” apne aap ko bada hero samajhtaa hai.. isse achche aur logon ko select kar liya hoga… ” but I really want all the people who think like that to , if possible , see my video clip thats recorded at the hotel.. with 100% confidence, you w’d have selected mine candidature for same.
If you ever get a chance ( i may sound demanding or childish ) but , if you ever get a chance, please see the recorded clip of mine ( Name Abhishek Verma, and unique code for Auditions M087) .. you may be able to judge that the actual right candidate for BIGG BOSS - Season 3 is me and only me.
I AM DYING TO SEE YOU IN PERSON… WANNA HUG YOU ONCE… WANNA SEE YOU WITH MY EYES BEFORE THINGS BECOME PERISHABLE AS THEY ARE DESTINED TO…. WANNA SPEND ATLEAST 2 MIN. WITH YOU…. AMITABHJI , YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE FOR MANY BUT YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE FOR ME….
MY LAST CHANCE TO MEET YOU WAS THROUGH BIGG BOSS SELECTION PROCESS AND THAT ALSO WAS SNATCHED AWAY FROM THIS HONEST ACTOR… I AM REALLY REALLY MISSING THE OPPURTUNITY…….

Dear Mr. Amitabh:
I just watched your complete interview with Barkha Dutt on NDTV. I have been observing you, your growth to such phenomenal heights and also how you have come a long long way. Your interview today and your responses to her was simply superb, you were so confident and so candid that it made a lot of impact on me personally, that I felt that you really not needed to bow down to everyone, to everything and to bow down to every accusation, rather facing them in the face is what you did so marvelously and I so proud of you. I really adore you as a wonderful human being. In this world of hypocrites, I feel you are such a nice wonderful, genuine and a natural human being.
Lots of love, today and always,

Love you
Watched ALADIN and enjoyed the movie for the most part. I thought the songs went with the story line and werent a jump into fantasy. The storyline I have to say could use more analysis and lots of bits and pieces could be thrown out, but I liked the Genie character and I thought it was done well. I’m still trying to catch up with the newer blog enteries, so my response will be several days late!!
You did a good job as the genie. I saw most people in the audience enjoying your role, especially the intro when the genie is enthusiastic and energetic.
Sir,

***SHAKTI @ 581*** Thank you for the kind, sweet words of encouragement…
I’m fine…My love for Mr. Bachchan and my devotion to Mr. Bachchan are both
unwavering…He’s been kind enough to write to me on two occasions before and for that I am eternally grateful…He will write to me again…when He has something He wants to tell me…bless you for caring…Hey, I like your name!
Mr. Bachchan,
just watched ur interview on NDTV with Barkha Dutt, i strongly feel the following:
even though it is important for a public figure like you to be politicaly correct in replying to most questions asked by the media and i respect that choice of urs,
i think taking a stand on some important issues is also a must for a public figure like u irrespective of the consequences, which u shyed away from in the interview and which i completely disagree with.
though this is a general comment based on what i saw in the interview, an example of this would be ur stand on the questions related to raj thakrey.
thank you.

Dear Sir,
I just watched your interview with Ms Bharka on NDTV. It was amazing! I liked your answer to one of Ms Bharka’s question-why u want to know about me? It is your job, you really not interested to know!
I never thought in that way, but what u said is true. If maturity means, balance between courage & consideration, your interview was good example.

Hello Sir,
Just watched your interview with Barkha Dutt on NDTV. Was very impressed with the way you tackled her questions specially when she raised the topic of unmasking (citing that it was her opinion) and you told her to keep her opinion with herself. Well done. Cheers

watch ‘PAA’
Dear Mr. Bachchan,
I am not a regular visitor of your blog and nor do I know if I may return soon but after watching your interview with Barkha Dutt I thought of revisiting your blog after a long time, simply out of casual curiosity to see what’s going on with your blog. What was astonishing for me to see though was the overwhelming majority of people who voted for your becoming a columnist. I voted with a “Can’t say/Won’t say” answer since I feel this should be your personal decision, instead of being a decision driven by public opinion. Pardon me my ignorance but I am amazed sometimes with people’s extraordinary ability to vote definitely on such a personal thing without at least knowing even broadly what is it that you are going to write your columns about(not to say that their trust or faith should be questionable). If I were to know what it is that you are going to write your columns about, I could have perhaps taken a definitive stand. Please do not misunderstand this as my not trusting you or in your abilities to write for rightful things. Its the nature of those rightful causes that you may write about is what I would be concerned about.
I now go to a larger question that is associated with your becoming a columnist, one that might bother a few insane questioners like me. In a country of a billion people, with at least half of them with intelligent minds(I can say with some experience that Indians are largely above the world average in many aspects), I find myself quite disappointed how we couldn’t mature faster as a nation, as a community. How we could be so obsessed with a few personalities that we treat them almost as manifestations of gods and angels(if not gods or angels). Just so there is no misunderstanding, I have a deep respect for accomplished people like you and for the record, I used to be a crazy fan of yours! at one time in my life(my teen years). I made sure I watched all your movies even if it meant telling lies to parents and running off to a cinema hall after school (just dont try to guess my age now, that was not the purpose :-)). I still am an admirer but can no longer perhaps call myself a fan(not of the previous kind). But I love to watch your movies and admire you just like I would love to watch and admire Naseeruddin Shah, Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan, ShahRukh Khan, Jack Nicholson or Morgan Freeman. I think the difference between my teenage admiration and that of now is that I have grown up in this aspect. I have grown up over the past couple decades to respect diversity and to respect all who are respectable, without unjustified bias and blind prejudice/fascination(if you will). But to my disappointment, India does not seem to have grown in this aspect(to the extent it should have).
We still seem to be driven largely by a very handful of personalities. We seem to even have the same old faces for debates and columns in the media, whether that’s about politics or religion. Its refreshing to see some change when I get an opportunity to watch TimesNow debates these days, for the increasing diversity of panelists.
I personally refuse to accept the argument that you should be the one of the most wanted or appropriate columnist in India, especially when I do not know whether the content(or the subject) is even defined. You as a citizen have a right to write whatever you wish - and you must, just as you perhaps express on your blogs. And obviously the phenomena of Amitabh Bachchan would add up to great circulation and TRP ratings wherever the name appears. However, I think (which am sure you already know) that the type of content you choose to write could go a great deal in shaping public opinions and debates. The good part is that you could be a good voice to shake up Indian beliefs and prejudices. But with all due respect, if I may, could I pose you a long dwindling question instead? Do you feel prepared or suitable(please do not take it otherwise) to write about things that are needed in today’s India? Could you, for example, write a column about how meritocracy should be promoted in India? How dynastic legacies are plaguing leadership development in our country? Whether it be in politics, or business, professions or films? Not that I am hinting at anything personal but qualifications get scrutinized when famous personalities opine about things. And there may be positions where you despite being right, may find yourself in an awkward position, having to answer seemingly justified questions. Take for example, the dynasty problem in India. I feel you are fully justified(from what little I know) to promote and train your son the way you trained him(it is a father’s responsibility and he perhaps by sheer osmosis, only wanted to be an actor and nothing else), however, for a sum of each such sons(or daughters) promoted in the film industry, there may be a great number of talented people who may not get the opportunity to be the next Amitabh Bachchan. Would you be prepared to write on such subjects or continue to be defensive about it? Remember, by being a columnist defending your personal decisions contrary to public good may not be bereft of harsh criticisms - and I dont think you would be justified in defending yourself then by simply brushing aside the question saying its private. Remember you will be shaping public opinion. I don’t believe in judging people, yet from what little my mind says, you like to remain outside of controversies. Taking up a position of a columnist may not be the best means to continue that posture/position. Ofcourse, an intellectually enlightened person like you perhaps may not find the best of his/her self writing about bollywood gossips or about your personal life/experiences in a column(guess the blog is enough for that). If you chose to write, I am quite certain you would like to write about socially significant issues. About things that can impact people’s lives.
Since I care about you, I think, perhaps, you may be better off reflecting clearly on what is it that you may write about first and what would be the consequences(both intended and unintended) before you undertake such a journey. Ofcourse, it goes without saying that its my very humble opinion (from an admirer who genuinely loves to watch you) and even though I dont opine unsolicited(not at least on blogs), I said so here just to throw some difficult questions to you, just in case you haven’t thought through.
I am sorry if in anyway I have hurt your or your fans’ feelings (ofcourse, if at all you or anyone cared to read this :-)). But I truly feel that we ought to be more refined and thoughtful as Indians. I most likely do not have the varied experience you have in life but I seriously do thing, in my humble understanding of the world, that you must first be very clear about what it is that you are planning to write about, before you undertake such a journey or even pose such a personal question for people to vote - about becoming a columnist.
I end with my final thoughts that should you undertake such a challenging journey(which my heart somewhere says you perhaps should, if you can gather the courage), it would be a pleasure to read your columns and note how much courage and clarity you gather in the times to come to voice your opinion for the social good, for the rising India of tomorrow

(not sure which funny guy came up with the idea of “fatwa” against a constitutionally accepted national song? - one that was accepted by the great islamic scholar Maulana Azad himself? - who in the world is forcing upon anyone to sing the song, if you do not like it. To those who came up with this idea, please don’t divide India further or make an issue out of a non-issue)
My gosh! You replied!! thank you so much!! I Love the way you handle criticism and that line you said in a recent interview ” Agar apne man ka ho toh acchha nahi ho toh uske ( God) ke man ka huwa ” Everyone should follow that - toh world will be a happy place to be -

I am one of the unlucky ones who has not got my name on the list of day 483,484 and 485 as I was on the Laxmi Narayan Cruise and so could not continue to submit my comments. But never mind I will still continue whenever I can. Soon I am going on a course for a week and I have been told that there is NO Wifi or internet connection, so, again I am going to miss out. I really feel sorry for myself. I leave on Friday and come back on Saturday. All I know is, that there is going to be lots of exercise, activities, less food and healthy living tips!!!! So that will be beneficial for me but I’ll miss this space and bigboss3!!!!! Got 2 more days !!!! Pranams.

We are very fortunate that we have people like you as an Indian, I am a great admirer of you and your bold frank and noncontrovercial approach however I felt bit disappointed when Barkha Dutt asked about Bombay VS Mumbai, I being Indian feel that calling Bombay or Mumbai doesnot change the length and width of Bombay and also we are Indians first then we belong to any state, cast or relegion then why not people like you who are public figure with huge following take up this issue rather than surrendering to a person like Thakrey who for cheap popularity try to divide we indians on those lines. Are we as people from other states are less Indians and is there any demarcation based on states language relegion culture.

Hello Sir,
I saw Aladin Friday, First day last Show @ Montreal, Canada. My five year old daughter was really looking forward to it. She loved Make a wish. I myself was raring to see it as a die hard fan of yours. The Movie was good, very entertaining and as you said in your blog, a cute film. After i came out of the threatre i was very upset bcos i had read some of the reviews before watching the movie. The reviews are clearly not matching with the movie. Only the review from Mr. Masand was close. All others were not. It has made me sad that few people can control the fate of the movie and thus fate of an artist. An Artist should have full control over his/her future but it somehow is making me feel that its not happening. Sir i am not trying to be pessimistic but what is the percentage of people reading the blog ? The issue according to me is that as watching a movie today is an investment and people make a decision (to invest or not) based on reviews. And if reviews are manipulated, the commerce associated with a movie can also be manipulated. Ofcourse exceptions are everywhere, and in this case exceptions are for the stars who have blind fan following. What ever be the review fans will watch the movie if it has a particular star featuring in it.
Anyways its sad but this is one of evils of technology that it has brought with it.
I salute the grit and determination that you have shown, inspite of so much bias against you. You are truly an inspiration.
God Bless,
Amit.
Dear Amit ji,
I have a great respect for you and brilliant acting you have given us over the years. But one story you told Pranoy Roy NDTV had a profound impact on me. It the story of the big bouldar that your father got home in Delhi. What an inspirational story that was. Thanks for all you have done. Looking forward exchange a few mails/comments with you in future.

Greetings to you!
Just saw your Interview with Barkha Dutt, and it was amazing how direct you answers her question. You were so clear and amazingly true.
There was discussion on bofors and you handle it like a champ. With due respect to your frienship, just want to know, what will be your reaction if, say tomorrow, the future Prime Minsiter of India Rahul Gandhi, approaches Abishek, to join Congress and serve people, or if Abishek express his desire to join Congress?
You can reply if you want, or just reply with ‘no comments’ if you think replying will hurt sentiments of some people.

Hi Sir,
few minutes ago i saw your Interveiw with Barkha on NDTV,
with due to respect to you during the whole interveiw i felt that there was only 1 question that you didnt reply with full of confidence and that question was your period of life at the time of BOFORS case, we all know that Bofors case was rubbish, but after Bofors scandal India lost most dynamic and beloved youngest Prime Minister Mr Rajiv Gandhi it was the first set back and second is that your relationship with Gandhi family get worsened, i feel that Bofors scandal era was set back for our Nation coz it had came and vanished Mr Rajiv Gandhi and your relations with him.
i born in 1983, my dad and my elders have seen you with Gandhi family ,you people were more like one family its my bad luck that i didnt get that opportunity to see your family and gandhi family as one but i strongly feel that this is the high time.
Sir i know thousands of people would have asked you thousand of times about why your relations with Gandhi family get worsened, i am not asking the same question
i am asking why two family of our country who have served the Nation from their bottom of their heart in their whole life in their own respective feild cant come together, sir if possible please reply me
Love you

Hello from Toronto
Came across your blog today, could resist writing to you…Hope you will read and respond to it.
First and formost I would like to say…thank you putting smile on the face of the world…all the compliments and honours you have received in the past and will receive in the future…it is all like lighting a lamp under the Sun. May God Bless You and Your beautiful family.
I will not call this a coincidence…I was asked to find out how we can connect to invite you, Aishwarya and Abhishek to launch a CD/DVD for the youth…The program is scheduled for December in Delhi. We have a common friend Andre Timmins…tried reaching him, but I guess he is travelling, he is the only hope I had to connect with you. And here, I found your blog, to connect directly. So this cannot be a coincidence…This CD is mainly focused on the Todays Youth. For details I can connect you with the Income Tax commissioner, a great friend in Delhi.
Please convey my regards to Jayaji. Love to family.

HI Sir,
I watched your interview on NDTV and I am unsure, if its absurd to ask however, I felt that your answers were calculated and words were picked carefully. I dared to put myself at your place
and trust me I felt suffocated. I find it ridiculous or I don’t know if I am confused to understand that achievements of a human being make him lose the right of shopping freely or for that matter doing anything???

Hi Mr. Bachchan,
I always wondered how it is to interact with a film personality. This is the first time I have come on this site & am really amazed at the quality & quantity of response you have been recieving from your fans.
I am sure you love cars but have you ever watched Formula 1? Just curious to know. Also your take on Global warming.If possible would love to know your thought on both.
Regards,
Shubha

brahma ne racha ise duniya ko,
aur racha ek nar mada,
laaj sharm naaree ko mila,
nar ko kam pipasa,
kintu nari ko bhoga jab nar ne,
tabhi huai dono sampuran,
sampuranta se hi naaree ko,
mila garbh mai bhrun,
stano me dudh ki dhara,
esihi tarhan mai janma,
tu bhi janma,
aur janma ye jag sara,
kintu shiv ne racha kaal chakra,
kiya tandav ka nritya,
bhir mai bacha,
na tu bacha,
aur bacha na jag sara.
amit ji yadi aap chahai ge to aur bhejunga
