my love to u 2 !!!
Dear Auro,
Love you toooo much…eagerly waiting for 4th December to meet you….
Take very good care…Good night..
Love you more to you too my dearest Amit ji
Good night
love u 2 Sirr jiii
is this a spaceholder for next post?
Miss you a lot….love you……
Lots of love to you as well and Shub Kamanaye….
Hi!!!
Dear sir,
Season’s greetings !
This is in response to day 575
The unspoken words which you heard in the room during interaction with journalists from regional newspapers…..
The awed and odd expressions, that you saw on regional language media persons faces……
The meek body language of those talented – BUT - regional language journalists that your intense eyes noticed…….
The uneasiness of regional language speaking people- which was put AT EASE by another hindi speaking person i.e you….
The unexpressed and suppressed feelings of those regional journos - which so easily touched your sensitive heart…..
Are nothing new for those INDIANS who speak, hear, think, and write in any regional language, specially HINDI.
And not everybody is fortunate enough to experience the impartial respect with which you treated those regional media persons !!
All the Brown Angrez of India who patronize, speak, hear, think and write - English -have always been looking down upon other regional languages speaking people especially Hindi….
We all keep experiencing such insults in the form of snide remarks – catty comments
Slyly and sometimes openly exchanged glances – cruel jibes –and [ oh ! I can go on….]
No opportunity is lost by these Brown Angrezes of India to make non-english speaking people feel small, uneducated, unwanted…and .[oh! Again I can go on and on….]
I remember, how our national hero Kapil Dev was shamelessly asked in one of his very early interviews as to why and howcome his English is so poor ?!
‘Aapka haath angrezi main itna tang kyon hai / quote unquote…. The interviewer was one Vipin Chaddha or Bhalla… who later changed his carrer from media to films…..
Ask Madhu Sapre— our miss India and almost miss universe—- how she was sidelined , made butt of jokes ,ridiculed and called VERNY [slang for vernacular] by other miss brown angrezes during beauty contest in Mumbai..
o And the latest one – That crocodile tears shedder – weepy drama king Bakhtiyar in BB3 –making digs at Raju—calling him down market hindi types….
o Remember Katrina coming to bb3 set to promote her film but royally ignoring your humble request to speak in hindi ??
Madam Katrina has no qualms in minting money-name and fame through hindi films but thinks it below dignity to let her mouth speak this language …..
Not to forget the types of Shamita Shetty….!!
Oh ! there are countless such examples ,people and incidents ! [by now you would be knowing I can go on and on…]
I wonder when would people come out of this false façade and learn to take pride in all things SWADESHI !!!
With regards and admiration—— Rupa jha
Even a blank yellow line will suffice Sir, to let me know that i was read
you have been read … and i have been humbled … love
LOVE YOU TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Auro!!! Monkey dance is getting popular..i am seeing it daily..my son enacts it exactly the way it is shown
I am sure that if you have a small video of the Bachchan family doing an “Auro”, it would generate millions of clicks and needless to say, a lot of viewership would be garnered.

Dear Amit ji,
Ican understand the amount of stress and emotions you might be running through. Cos we all sometimes face in our professional life. But as we go back to our home sweet home. We still talk to our family. Your short little note today is self explanatory. As I discussed with you in previous resnsponse. Please write something about ur experience of travel ad that u did with journey from London to Mumbai. Lets discuss about something new e.g. ummm….Lets say any of u’r surprise visit to any of the remotest part and people really did’nt recognised you. Aisa kabhi tu hua hoga 60 years mein…Ha ha ha..
Thanks for writing to u r exrended family.
Regards
Sat Sri Akal Amit jee….

Hi Amitabh,
In case you are waking up, request you to kindly accede to my little request. May Papa is a big fan of yours. He tells me events where he used to bunk classes and go out for your movie. Even now he goes to theatre only if its your movie. Request you to kindly talk to my dad and when ever you be in Kolkata, do let us know. Will come to meet you. In case you have read this mail, can you pl acknowledge it by sending a mail at mohitagarwal7783@gmail.com so that I can give you my Paa’s number. I know you are really busy but would really appreciate if you can spare few minutes from your life and fill ours.
Warm regards,
Mohit
PS: I do take a lot of inspiration from you - even at the age of 60+ you work like 15 hrs a day. Keep it up………
Hi Amitji,
Thanks for the yellow band. Please let me know if I can get in for the Mumbai Premiere of PAA, even if I have to do some household chores for you afterwards e.g. wash your car, do the washing up etc!!

Good morning
Watched the new remix of PAA. Really wonderful
The movie seems really amazing every time, whenI hear the word “PAA” it brings tears to my eyes. Reflects a very emotional bonding between this wonderful relationship. And hopefully with the movie, it shall change many broken relationships and bring a new outcome .
Wishing you all the best for these wonderful movie and definately it shall bring all the laurels to you and Abhisek. God Bless you. - love ketki

Hello Sir
A snake in the room that ought to be scary..I am petrified of snakes ofcourse for you its nothing as you have carried a crocodile in your back in Ganga Jamuna Saraswati
I guess from next time on there will be a extra check to see if there is a reptile in your room.. Waiting to watch the reaction of the audience and ofcourse your critics about PAA..I am sure it will be an intresting read. Saw couple of interviews of Abhishek on You Tube and wanted to know the attire he is seen wearing the white dress with glasses on is that the look in PAA which he is sporting or its just something which is in trend these days..Since Abhi started wearing a hair band a lot of guys started wearing it..
Regards
Ram
MY LOVE TO YOU TOO!!!

Welcome home Auro

Cheers

Dear Auro,
Don’t you worry, all this hard work will surely pay back…. Even i am from a media background, i so understand all the toil that is involved in the whole process….
By the way on the lighter side i would say that even the snake couldn’t resist your magnetic persona…..
But jokes aside…i hope it was not a big inconvenience to you….
I must tell you one thing, though i am sure that each and every viewer is going to say this…..
PAA is a great great success….
Just the small promo is so rocking…the whole package is going to be just superb…..
i already told you this once in the past, that the AURO style of dancing is already a FAD in the city…..
so the success story of the movie will be a new milestone in the the Hindi Film Arena……

coming to snakes,i never have seen as many numbers and varieties of snakes and lizards as i have seen in Florida.and the whole west thinks India is a land of snakes and elephants.ha.
cant wait to see paa sooner.love you.

Ljubov to you from me!!! nephew Igor!!!
TO: SWEET AURO/aka Amitabh Bachchan…
In return, I send you MY love and more and more and more and a little bit more…………………………………………………………………….
This is my first post on amit ji’s blog and i would like to take this opportunity to thank him for the wonderful work he has been doing since eternity. Now coming back to the topic, PAA seems an interesting concept and though, i dont get much time due to my wok commitments but i will surely watch PAA.
Big B,
Love you.
Rajeev.
Amithji Parnam mera,
Oh Auro you sweet thing.. HOH HOH!! Just love the way he says that.. Bless.. Actually saw the music promo that you put up day on Star News yesterday very pleasing and actually rather touching with a sense of humour..!! But most certainly the new dance moves to become contagious..
Okay won’t force you in showing us the exciting visuals of ‘others’.. mind you I dread to think!!! lol…
SNAKE ?? WOOF!!!…. Good grief .. My son Rickesh aged 8 yrs wants to know what type of snake was it ?? As he thinks it was a King Cobra, and It came to meet Auro.. Didnt you know that???… Glad they got rid of it for you with respect I hope!!!
All that time, effort, commitment, patience, dedication, and money spent how can one not see through all that passion and dedication involved!! I’m sure Amithji, with all our & millions of other duas the film will be blessed and rock the box office no doubt.. Our, mine and everyone’s wishes are there all the way… Just a shame for us Pardesi’s that London Prem not taking place.. but all will end well.. in fact months of planning, preparing, and then one day of evaluation on the Saturday morning!!!!!! Bless all being well my dear..
I hope in all this adrenaline venture, your shoulder and back are behaving themselves more duas and foremost in that dept first!!! Rest will fall in place.
My parents have left London for India to spend the next 6 months in their Indian home and lifestyle, it’s at this time every year of my life when darkness prevails and the acceptance that they are only a phone call away.. but it hurts nevertheless!!! So I have clearly instructed them to glue themselves to BB3, and then they will feel my presence.. they promise they will gives me great satisfaction to say the least, keeps me going now!!.
Achaji, counting the days now with you.. Hey Amithji I really do from the bottom of my heart wish as many EF that live in India esp Mumbai are able to attend on 3rd Dec.. I dont know whether physically this is possible… But just think how many commited, loyal, loving and truly sensational members of your EF lives will blossom the happiness and dreams of many will come to light because of you!!!
I leave you to ponder this thought…
My lov as always earlier..

Dearest of all AB
I know I am feeling ignored as you have not been yellow friendly of late but let me tell you that I don’t mind so much as you have been so busy with Paa.
Paa generates an emotion that not too many films have generated of late. So don’t have to worry. We will bloody hell make sure the film is a big success.
Not only to generate money but also to give impetus to this wonderful cinema.
AB. I envy you! You are living so many lifetimes in this life. We have to take as many births! You are God’s very special. I know you are. Just accept it.
Now do us a favor. So that we also feel special.
Give us YELLOW
love
Shikha.
Dearest Mr Bachchan
Totally ADORE the Monkey Dance promo… it is just delectable and utterly charming and insanely catchy..
It has this silly simian cavorting and whooping with joy and ’swinging my funky gibbon’ with joy. I was going to say ’swinging my pants’ - which is a daft British phrase for dancing but then wondered if this would create the wrong impression.
But Mr Bachchan, Sir, I think you are creating a VERY mischievous impression indeed - tantalising us with this Clandestine Video for Your Eyes Only. Why, if we didn’t know you better, we might think you were enjoying tormenting us.
However, I shall rise above this with all the frosty hauteur at my command, and merely commend you for this uber-brilliant video and yet another masterstroke in a promo campaign which has been pitch perfect.
Wtih all my love, Daisy
Dear Mr Bachchan
Love to you and Auro.

Dear Amit ji,

Hi AURO!!

Ask BiggBOSS to send off all snakes ,vipers, insects etc etc to that BB3 villa…. made for each other ,plus we can watch some more monkey dancing there too!!
Lots and lots of love for AURO!

Is there nothing else in this post?
Hello Dear uncle,
Here again to wish you the very best for Paa.BTW what do you think about Kamal being brought back in the house.
Love love and lots of love just for you
Atlast your post!
And what..a Ssssssssssnake in your room….I’m so creeped out ….Eeeeeeeeeekkkkk!!! Now I’m sitting in my chair, with my feet up. I guess the snake came to learn Auro’s monkey dance to charm its mate. Stay safe my dear AB. You are precious.
There is always extreme uncertainty surrounding film returns. I am always amazed to hear that the movie’s “Hit or flop” status is decided by the opening 3 days’ collection. There are so many factors that drive potential determinants of movie box office success and profitability.
First there are movie critics that play a significant role in mainly two ways i.e. The influencer and the predictor perspective.The former being the opinion leaders who influence their audience and, consequently, the box office performance of movies and the latter being the predictor perspective which suggests that critics might be predictors of performance but not necessarily causing it. Most of the critics are only interested in proving their predictions right, ignoring the fact that is reporting the outcome of films.
Many film magazines and websites are completely delusive as they have their own lobby and favoritism. That’s precisely why all these common reports proclaiming movies to be hits at the drop of a hat, have to be taken with a large tablespoon of salt!
In the old days - three or four years ago - moviegoers would see what their local film critic had to say or ask their friends on Monday morning. With the surgence of internet in our lives, an increasing number of consumers use online rating and online review sites thus making Internet more pervasive. The social media has transformed movie goers into film reviewers. Some years ago, you might see a movie and go home and write about it, and a few people would read it. Now you can tweet from your iPhone the minute the credits start to roll and, depending on the number of people on your Twitter account, you can reach hundreds of people in a micro-second. And you can automatically post it to Facebook. While professional reviewers’ opinions may matter, today the audience has more authority, sending out do-it-yourself reviews that collectively reach millions.
Word of mouth goes faster on web sites, it works both ways. But the people who do facebook and Twitter are usually a younger audience. They can build up a film. Amateur reviewers sometimes pump life into movies that paid reviewers might otherwise destine to oblivion. Professional critics gave the movie “9″ mixed reviews, but couldn’t kill the online buzz. Online posts get picked up on other sites, creating a multiplier effect far greater than pass-on readership.
Social media is the most effective film marketing tool today. It doesn’t replace traditional marketing, but it reaches out to millions with a snowball effect.
I am so proud that “Paa” has triggered with just the right mix of these marketing tools. The “Paa” promos are definetely most innovative ideas so far. It’s laudable to see AB Corp banner being associated with a film like ‘Paa’. The team has broken all the traditional marketing molds that movie audiences are accustomed to seeing. First the teaser campaign, then the innovative and ever so interactive website, the tweets, the facebook page, the forum, the stimulating presskit and now the powerful theatre signs with inciting social messages - have captured everyone’s imagination. The buzz is all around….this genie is not going back into the bottle.
Have a blissful sleep. Good nite.
Love you ssooooooooo much and then a little more …
My dearest Amitji.. My reciprocal love and affection to you.. and more.. I embrace you warmly my precious.. Good night and pleasant dreams.. With love and admiration.. Yours Lyudmila.
Dear Auro,
please invite akshay kumar and ajay devgan also.akki invited u for film CC2C.please sir do it and also great dalip kumar also.PAA is superb.

I love you and thank you! Why? For the eyes see and feel what you see and what you feel! Thank you to be healthy labor force and loving people!
Greetings from Romania, Roxana!
Sir,
Just a thought from a promotions standpoint for Paa. Since Paa is all about the relationship between a Father & Son, and in today’s time knowing the way things go in families, how about having a promotional offer for every son who wants to watch this movie with his father.
I understand that this a big logistical nightmare but we still have 13 days.
All the best for Paa
Regards,
Ajay Lulla
My love to you Auro and much more ….

My love to you. You are someone I look up to! You are an inspiration to me and someone I respect and admire.

I read your blog occasionally. What I like to read most is stories of yester years of your professional life. The movie I like the most are “Sholay”, “Kala Pathar” and “Kabhie Kabhie” and would like to read your personal stories during those excellent projects.
Last year I was watching your movie “DON” with my son and you will be surprised to know that since then my 11 year old is fan of yours and says I like this movie better than the newer version. I wish you Good luck for your upcoming creation “PAA”.
At this point, I also like to request you to use your magical influence to educate people regarding copyright issues as it is being abused intentionally or un-intentionally by many who do not understand that how much effort and time the technical and non-technical staff put together to bring entertainment to us.
I wish to meet you someday!
Best regards,
Sadiq Pirani
I am eagerley waiting for movie. good luck to you and Abhi.

Mahesh R.
Mr. Bachchan, Sir…may I please have minute to address a question by my Friend and Buddy, Mr. Vishan Lal??? THANKS - LOVE YOU FOR THIS (and so much more…but that’s a whole nuther ball of wax)
***MR. VISHAN LAL*** Hello, Sir! I was just reading the last few comments from
DAY 577 and I got to yours at @ #357 where you were lamenting the fact that you haven’t gotten to hear the music from “PAA” yet…you were wondering if anyone could help you with that…Well…YES, I THINK I CAN HELP YOU, SIR!
Go to the top of this page…look on the right hand side of the page…
just below the ‘MO BLOG’ area…see where it says ‘CLICK HERE’ for the ‘official
PAA website’? Do it, click there, and you will find links to ALL the music from the movie and a whole lot more wonderful stuff for you to look at! COOOOOL, huh?
And by the way, Mr. Lal, Sir, I haven’t forgotten what you asked me to do….I copied down the Hindi words of your poem “BACCHE BACCHE” and then I copied down your English translation of it… I just want you to know that I love your poem so much…It is really a beautiful poem…I can feel your emotions completely…It is beautifully written…I will try to come up with some rhyme in the English version…but I just want you to know that I do it ONLY because you asked me to, and you did it so very sweetly…I really don’t want to tamper with perfection…it IS completely perfect…just the way you wrote it…any translation can only take away from it’s perfection. XXXXX Valorie XXXXX
THANK YOU, Mr. Bachchan, Sir…You’re so cool…I love you.
Oh, one thing I want to tell YOU…I finally got a printer yesterday! WAY HAPPY!
What was the first thing I printed out, you ask? Glad you asked! It was an
English translation of your Father’s poem ‘MADHUSHALA’…now I can read it…
made me very, very happy to finally be able to know what He was saying…
I am going to print out other ones, too, and read them, so that I can have a better understanding when I listen to the CD of you reading His poetry that I bought in honor of His birthday coming up…It’s my little way of paying my respects…What were the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th things I printed out? Why,
full color pictures of YOU, of course…and they are all taped to the wall around my computer screen…sweeeeeeeet…
LOVE YA!
WHETHER AMAR SINGHJI, MULAYAM SINGH YADAV AND JAYA PRADHA ALONG WITH THE ENTIRE AMBANI PARIVAR WILL GRACE THE PREMIER OF ”PAA”
IT WILL INDEED BE A GREAT GET– TOGETHER
A PREMIER TO REMEMBER INDEED!
ALL THE BEST FOR A GREAT GOLDEN NIGHT–PREMIER OF HISTORY-MAKING FILM’ ‘PAA’
ILAIYARAAJA’S MUSICAL SCORE MIGHT FETCH ANOTHER OSCAR FOR AN INDIAN COMPOSER

Dear Mr. Bachchan,
Can you send me your photo as “DON” with an autograph which I can present to my son as a gift? I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Best regards,
Sadiq
Amithji & Dear EF friends,
With your consent Sir, I wish to express my views regarding a post on DAY 577 # 116 by Kashmira Grewala.
My Kash didi told the whole blog and you about a deep personal dua that I expressed to didi in confidence. I read her post only today and all I could think was OMG, OMG.. didi has put me in a very embarrassing and difficult position… The discussion arose of Sai Babaji, as we are both great devotees of Saiji… and the wishes and blessing between us started, and then the personal desires were exchanged!!!. So yes now that you all know of forthcoming surgery, it takes place in Dec and I am apprehensive esp after a major life threatening one that took place in May, and now this major one of similar accord.. But you people keep me positive and courageous, I have no words to express the love and loyalty that so many of you have shown in wishing me good luck. I feel many will be by my bedside and in theatre.. TO ME THIS IS WHAT FAMILY MEANS IN THE TRUE SENSE… THANK YOU ALL!!!
In return Amithji and friends, It’s my turn to get revenge didi ha ha.. Nah jokes apart seriously, now I want to tell you all and to really understand this amazing woman…. MY KASH DIDI.. As much as she has placed me in this awkward position her reasoning is one only of sheer love, respect, and concern. Lets think for a minute…In life there are good people and bad ones..
One wonders why ‘Good people suffer’?, and Bad ones never get ill, their life seems so relaxed, tension free and content Or are they just awaiting their turn??.. For example why do children and babies everyday suffer immensely for things they have not done ?? Yet, ultimately, no one is innocent. But is there really no one innocent?. Ultimately, we must trust God who knows the beginning from the end and sees the grand picture. He will have the final word and He will be vindicated.
Suffering, surely must be the result of human sin. The world is not the way that God created it and because of that, all are vulnerable to the effects of sin in the world. Why does one person suffer and another does not? Why do catastrophes happen to some and not to others? Is It because sin is in the world.??
We chose who we wish to be associated and accompanied with from free will, some stick with us, others fall off mid way, whilst new ones attach, but there is the minority only that stick like glue, they refuse to let go no matter how much we shake them off.. They stick so firmly that we are afraid to lose them… My Kash didi is this very glue.. one that will stick through thick and thin, one who genuinely shares everyones happiness, she wipes all tears, she feels the pain of others as if it cut her own anatomy… Every word from her mouth is a blessing of some sort.. In fact she has burdened me so much over this past year with love and blessings & duas, I have never received ever from anyone else like this before, in fact I can never in this lifetime repay her back…
Her dedication to help others is second to none.. Yet she has and is still suffering with her own health issues and recently she has also been very ill, her regular EF that know her , know how much pain she has encountered, yet she lives for others (Good People are the minority indeed) KASH DIDI…We all love you so much, you too have made so many friend’s from Amithji’s blog and through our many chats on several occasions we have always put the ownership of this deed on Amithji.. We are indebted to Amithji for this without a doubt!!!
Think I better listen to ‘Aap Ayae Bahar Aaye’ lol…
Amithji, I just wanted to express my feelings and make an awareness to the others that Didi is this glue, once applied, sticky situation to be in haa… ha.. ha… Seriously every word that she writes to you is from the bottom of her heart and in life we do not meet very genuire people… Kash didi is a diamond but an extremely rare one. She most definitely is one of your EF’s that is so special authentic, honest, candid, open and straight. .. one that will forever shine in my heart…And I really do hope you appreciate her contributions on your Blog.!! In fact she is what I may call : in your world the Amar Singhji of our blog!!!! Bless her and deepest blessings to you toooo my dearest!!
Finally, there are many blogs around of celebrities and other stars, many of my friends even are regular bloggers of other known celebs, but may I just add that a committed and loyal set of fans can only be found on OUR BLOG.. Ones that have made such a difference to many with their care, love and dedication… We owe ALL this to YOU my dear, if you did not provide us with this platform, then we all would not have met such beautiful people from all aspects of the world… THANK YOU MY DEAR FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY AND OTHERS HEARTS… YOU ARE TRUELY OUR INSPIRATION AND WE LOVE YOU UNCONDITIONALLY AND AURO YOU ARE JUST SO ‘MIND BLOWING’…
Didi SAIBABJI.. have destined us so our trip will be complete one day for sure!!! Thank you for being there for many and esp for me… Lov u unconditionally forever…..
My lov as always for you all

Hi Amitji,
Paa seems like a real artistic piece of acting, looking forward to it and I am sure its going to be really good movie. Hope everyone is doing good.
Sir:
Hats off to you for your enthusiasm and hard work (even after achieving so much in life). I just wish I can learn from you and instill the same in my 2 kids. Wish you all the very best for PAA (it seems like a hit already) and the revival of your company.
My 4 year old son and I watched Aladin and he liked the stunts and magic performed by “Anitabh Bachchan” I plan on seeing PAA with him as well.

Such dedication/discipline and commitment at this age and doing it so meticoulsly from 40 years is what i at an age of 42 will take a leaf out of your book and try to maintain.
Greatness in your art and your work is well known and praised by many but this greatness comes and prevails with dedication/discipline and commitment consistently without batting an eyelid and focussing with a clarity of thought is what people need to learn from the life of a great man like you.
With lots of respect
Sunil
Dearest Amit ji,

Dearest Amit ji,
Wanted to ask you that how was Abhisheks reaction to you calling him Paa for the first time in the film.
His reaction not as an actor but as a son.
Luv

Great to see that video…wow …i am anxiously waiting for Paa….
Love to see you in this role….amazing.
With Lots of LOVE.

Dear Amit Ji,
If the trailor of “Paa” looks so amazing, then I wonder about the movie. Again I would say that, you act so well as a 13-year old child in “Paa”. Yes, only 13 days are left for paa to release and I am so anxious to see you in that movie. Oh! Amit ji! in the trailor, when you say “paa..” so politely with an inncocent face, brings a big smile on my face. Auro! great job! Okay, time to take some rest. Take care of your health and rest ok. peace…
With lots of…and lots of…Annnnddddd lotssssssss of love,
Surbhi Kaura
Counting down the days with you too.. Eagerly awaiting the release.. promise you, will be there Friday evening!! Hope you get to arrange a show here in the US for all of us.. Do consider it..Would be a wonderful opportunity to watch the movie again with you & also for this part of your FmExt to meet u !!
All my love as always,
Archana.
Dear Amitji,
Am I first today,I am I guess. Wish you success for PAA.
Lots of love to you sir
Dear Amit ji,
haha hahaa.. okay, I leave you reading the comments now.
I forgot to mention one thing more, for sure Auro’s dance steps will get famous and I will try too
Sir.. I just want to say “THANK YOU” for the inspiration that you are giving through your blog.
Love to you too Auro (Mr Bachchan

Amitji and all friends: please check this out. It’s a riot — “Jingle Bells” in Punjabi, bhangra style!

First, congratulations on what looks like a mind blowing makeover..I am however a bit surprised by one aspect. The promos of the film say that Auro is in intelligent 13 year old. Yet, the interview that you posted on Auro’s experience on radio, as well as the handwriting on the top of the page suggests some confusion. 13 year old kids these days, as I am sure you are well aware, are extremely smart, lucid and also write very well. So can you help reconcile this?
Hi,
My love to you & more…..oh my love I love you & much much much more……….
Take care
Manisha
we are all going to do the auro dance all over the world what a cute promo love and love and more love !! its going to be such a big big hit you are awesome take care enjoy the accolades shake it shake it shake it yey yey yey auro paa

अब तक रहते हैं और मैं तो हूँ, करीब मेरे जीवन oooo, मेरी मूर्ति …. मैं तुम्हें उपहार दे सकता है? क्या तुम मुझ से मिलता है? कहते हैं कि तुम जाओ …. पूछना है और आपको प्राप्त होगा!
My love for you and more ….
live so far and I am so close, oooo my life, my idol …. I can give you gift? What do you get from me? Say you get …. ask and you shall receive!
Auro… will be the most talked about child after december 4th..
Its a very noble cause that you and your team is working for…

Dear Amitji,
I am from Pakistan.
When u were in Singapore I had made a portrait of yours on my own hand posted it to you which was delivered at your address
JALSA B/2 Kapol Housing Society VL Mehta Road Juhu Mumbai 400049.India.
on 16th July.
I had joined the art school just because I wanted from my bottom of heart to draw your photo in my own hands and you please let me know how you liked my art. How did u find that? I had also sent one letter with the portrait and requested you to read my letter.
Hi Amitji!
Love to you too! Why don’t I see anything here except your wishes?
Shubha
My love too to sweet AURO.
vishan lal
yes..and the final breath will be a sigh…that all is well..and Paa is on the way

Dear Lion King,
Sssssssssssssssssso sssssssssssweeeeeeeeeeet and thank you for the endearing sssssssign off and for posting the monkey jig video. It was extraordinary and the tune is like an anthem! I have been humming it as I write and I cannot sssssssstop.
Regarding our friend Kaa ( the snake in Jungle book), he probably thought you were King Louis, the king of swingers, the monkey king and dropped by to say hello after seeing you break into a jig. You must have hypnotized him with your moves so much so that the poor guy did not slither away from the room but stayed there in a transcendental state only to later realize you are not King Louis but the Lion King. Disney has got this guy confused, he has watched too many animations.
Thank you for painstakingly explaining what goes into the MIX. For a layman, it sounds like an excruciating process to make a film even after it is supposedly over and done. Wow, so fascinating for duffers who have no clue but sit in those cozy chairs, munching popcorn, drinking a diet coke and passing comments without really appreciating what goes on behind the scenes. The verdict lies with us who go to watch the end product, but how quickly we pass the verdict and how soon we affect the other’s thinking despite our thinking could likely be flawed in the first place. Hats off to all the film makers.
I returned to HK and back to home sweet home. Which reminds me that Raas’ cousin was slithering on the pavement a few blocks away a few weeks back, he was a “python” ( 15 feet ) who chose to relocate from the green hills behind us and come down for a meal.The meal being a cat he had spotted.He was then spotted later by the security who called in the snake expert who put him in a box and left him back on the hills. For all animal lovers, both the cat and the snake are safe as the python is an endangered species here, else he may have found his way to the cooking pot.
So, what happened to the snake in your room in Lonavala? If he was evicted on friday, Nagina will return next friday and she is gonna break into a dance, like Sridevi. Too much of Chennai you have carried back to Lonavala.
xoxoxoxo
Love n more love

To Valorie Adams @ # 128
Oh my God !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The treasure was right with me and I was searching the whole world !! Thank you dear Valorie for connecting me to the PAA world. In such situations in our local language we call it “Chhohra Bagal Mein, Shahar Dhindhora”. (Please do not ask me for its translation, only Satyam can do it perhaps, but it is referred to the lady, who in some excitement was searching for her lovely small kid (Chhohra) in the entire town, shouting for him, whereas her son was in her arm clamped right with her body (Bagal). I know EF will be laughing at my foolishness. But as I have crossed 60, I accept my follies which are bound to come to me with growing age. Every one cannot be Big B who even at 67 is doing wonders. Now I need not go for purchase as all the songs are available for the EF on the blog. Thanks to Big B and thank to you Valorie, indeed. You have come to my rescue each time.
I thank you that you appreciated my poem’s translation. I have tried my bit but I am sure it will become poetry with your magic touch. God has given you that extra gift which you so kindly share with all of us and we have really got blessed and blissed.
vishan lal
PS: I am awaiting comments of Jasmine Jaywant also on “Bacche” who very kindly assured me to react to it.
EXCUSE ME DEAR EF, I am taking so much liberty on the Blog, not meant for this long personal interaction between members, but it is all through this forum that I have come to meet friends like you. So kindly bear it with grace and kindness.
Mr. B,
That josh in ur gait remains evergreen even now, was watching an old movie of urs and u doing a dishum dishum scene knocking off the goondas !The sheer energy exuded in those scenes could light a village I am sure!Such fun it is even now and still so exciting , my handsinvoluntarily go punch punch!And now in Bigg Boss when u walk in and then go out its the same verve and vivacity , keep it up Mr. B we like it. This is from the heart will never ever flatter to deceive dont have to no?Love and best wishes.
Amitji, the promo you have posted warms the heart. The monkey dance — as everyone is calling it — is remarkable for its sheer abandon and catchiness. Very enjoyable, and certainly makes one want to see the movie.
Your hearty guffaw in response to Satyam’s #1 comment was as heart warming. I simply love the way you laugh — first the smile that suffuses your face, and then you throw your head back and laugh heartily. What are the girls to do if not fall in love? And then the moral pundits blame them for loving you!
Re: the marketing of PAA: Satyam, you must be happy with it, as you’ve always advised Amitji to see to it that the film is well promoted. I certainly hope it pays off and the movie is a success.
Vishanlal: I don’t think Amitji minds it if we talk to each other. In August (in his blog of Aug. 15, to be precise), he said very clearly in one of his yellow lines that healthy dialogue and exchange of ideas is okay. And I have not forgotten about the Bachche mun ke sachhe and my repsonse to your poem. It is just that I want to write at leisure, hopefully the week-end should give me the time and the opportunity. And now that you have revealed your age, may I say that that was the reason I used to add the “ji” to your name, as my parents always taught us to respect our elders.
Amitji, I am watching “Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham” — that perennial feel-good tear-jerker. May I say that the year it was released, my son and I performed to “shava shava mahiya…” at a friend’s party!
Have a great Saturday, Amitji.
Love and regards,
Jasmine
Good morning Sir,
How are you? I just connect to internet and saw your new post (578 & 578(i) ) and saw Paa Auro dance its really nice and waiting for watch Paa on 4th Dec 2009.
Please take care.
Love and Regards
Rupam from Assam
I wonder if I dreamed of you-
if you would appear?
To make my nights full of love,
and always hold me near.
I wonder if I thought of you-
if you would feel it in your soul?
Like two spirits in the universe,
who always seem to know.
Even if the stars went black
and the sun were to shine no more.
They could find their way to each other,
no matter how far the shore.
Safely in each other’s arms,
to bid the rest of time.
Finding Eternal Love
so many seek to find.
Caring for each other
through the worst of storms.
Leaning on the arms of love
and never need anymore.
This is how I feel for you,
I’ve known it all along.
You are my one true love
My world.. My heart.. My soul!

My dearest Amithji,
how are you ?
Thank god the security was able to spot the snake in time! Thinking about it gives me the creeps.
Have seen this promo on TV . Very good, makes me wonder how you are jumping about, when I look at it , feel like telling you “please be careful! don’t jump sooo much!”
God, really , how much hard work goes into making any film! & in one jiffy, we , the audience , come out of the theatre & give our verdict in one syllable! good, bad or ok!!
Looks like you are sooooo involved in every aspect of fim making, from the way you have described how the final product comes out! Amithji, please do not worry, all , us fans , are not only looking forward to see the movie but also praying feverishly that it becomes a land mark movie in the history of Indian cinema!beating the likes of Sholay & DDLJ!!
The kids in my colony are already doing the little jiggy of PAA! So , one thing is for sure, for the new year party at our colony every child will dance for this number!
You looked killing in that grey suit of yours!
I was very surprised with Vinod Kambli’s eviction. Everybody , who watches BB3 was sure it would be Rohit. Ah! but the vagaries of the BB house!!!!!
Now that KRK is inside , there sure is going to be more fireworks!
Auro…….Auor…. I hope to see on the premiere thou!

Bye for now,

आदरणीय अमितजी,
धन्य हो उस सांप को जिसने आपका ध्यान खींचा. वैसे एक सजेशन है कि इस तरह की सिचुअशन के लिए सांप काटने पर लगाए जाने वाले इंजेक्शन फ्रिज में संभाल कर रखना चाहिए. जो समय रहते लगाने पर जान बचा सकते हैं.

Please give us these details if you are permitted to by the director of BB3.Bye.India drew with Sri Lanka in the first test, after Tendulkar completed his 43th test century.There were 7 centuries by the batsmen in the test as it was a batting feast.

For AB,
BoggBoss Season 3: Yesterday’s Episode.
The pathetic state of all those who have chosen to be in that house of evil, can be summarized in one song of Shakil Badayuni:
===
Mujhe duniyawaalo, sharaabi na samjho, main peeta nahin hun pilaayi gayi hai
Jahan bekhudi mein, kadam ladakhadaaye, vahi raah mujhko dikhaayi gayi hai
… … … Folks, don’t think I am an alcoholic; I don’t drink, this is forced on me
… … … I am driven on the path of selflessness, where my feet always stumble
Nashe me hu lekin, mujhe ye khabar hai, ke is zindagi me sabhi pi rahe hai
Kisi ko mile hain, chchalakate piyaale, kisi ko nazar se pilaayi gayi hai…
… … … I am intoxicated, but I know, every one is drinking in life
… … … Some have got these glasses; some are drunk on a vision
Kisi ko nasha hai jahan me khushi ka, kisi ko nasha hai gam-e-zindagi ka
Koi pi raha hai lahuu aadmi ka, har ik dil me masti rachaai gayi hai…
… … … Some are delirious in happiness, some are drunk in life’s sorrows
… … … Some drink the blood of man; such is the passion in every heart
Zamaane ke yaaro chalan hai niraale, yahan tann hai ujale, magar dil hai kaale
Yeh duniya hai duniya, yahan maal-o-jar me, dilon ki kharaabi chupaai gayi hai
… … … Society’s ways are different friends; brighter the exterior, darker the heart
… … … This world is a world, where wealth & glamor, cover the vices of the heart
—Shakeel Badayuni
===
It was obvious last night that even you were stumped by the terms of reference laid out by Kamal Khan… when he said kamino ka ghar hai yeh!
The whole program is now moving on the lines of Big Brother. Claudia & Pravesh fondling each other in the dark; Rohit cursing God’s will for making him gay; Raju withdrawn into a shell not sure there is anything funny left in the game; Bak-Bakhtiyar, the scorpion whose sting is growing back, has stopped crying; Aditi & Poonam don’t care one way or another.
Actually you seem to be the odd one in the whole package…
Love

Hi sweet heart
How are you? The description of the film making was amazing, though I felt it very complex to understand. I can understand how much hard work is put in for the two hours of verdict. But you know what we are all with you and we wish you all the best. Take care of yourself. Typed half of this message at 3:00 a.m typing the other half now, sorry for delay. Waiting eagerly for the movie. you know, this year has been great for me. First I met you, then unexpectedly I got alladin audio. Waiting for many more pleasant surprises. You are really my lucky charm, darling. Please don’t take much stress. Take proper rest and do remember me. All the best again
Loads of love, hugs, kisses, cares and prayers.
Namaskaar Amitji,
What an absolutely infectious piece of music and dancing!
Gotta love Auro! I would love to do the monkey dance, too. LOL.
Do keep sharing all the fascinating post-production details. I love getting the inside view from you, Amitji.
Good luck with all the preparation for your premieres.
Will there not be one in Toronto… You and Abhishek have tens of thousands of fans here, you know.
Hai Raam! Aapkay kamray mein saap thay! Be careful. Check your bedcovers every night, too, before you slip in.
I love you.

Hi,
Snake in your room & that too a large one oh god ,thanks to the security .Loved the monky dance,the tune is catchy .Now its really giving me hard time as still 13 days to go .
“back to more civil conversation’ loved this sentence of yours.You are a great writer,with that narrative & descriptive skill.Wonderful explanation ,I loved every word of it . Hours of hard work for that one moment. A great experience in itself.
You were looking extremely handsome in that grey suit of yours,yesterday in BB3 ,you always look handsome.Touchwood touchwood..
Looking forward to the release of PAA .
LOVE YOU
Take care
Manisha
My Dear Mr Bachchan
There is excitment in the air…Good Luck again for ‘PAA’

Having just come home, the first thing I watched was Auro’s monkey dance with the remixed tune, and it is so cute.I think this will be the next dance craze over there. By the way, the New York Dolls had a song recently called ‘Dance Like a Monkey’ but I doubt anyone knew about it there.
Tonight there was a choice to be made between Mary Pickford, with a screening of ‘Hoodlum’ with live accompaniment, and another founder of United Artists, Charlie Chaplin, with a screening of ‘Monsieur Verdoux’ at the Landmark Loew’s Jersey Theatre. Since dinner with my father made it too late for Mary, at the last minute, I chose to see Chaplin instead of going home. I had forgotten how much I could identify with Chaplin’s circumstances in the film and how it is so relevant for today’s times. I’m glad I went. And i love all that dark philosophy at the end.
So when you said they got rid of the snake, I’m just curious to know what happened to it.
Now I’ll watch BB3 before retiring.
Love to you and Auro,
Rochelle
Amit ji
I second Manisha’s (#204 Manisha) opinion. You looked stunning in the grey suit last night on BB3 !! Reid & Taylor is it? hehehehe…lol…:)
Snake in your room? one more die-hard fan of you I guess :)…
Balaji
MY DEAR AURO ..
you have danced Flawlessly ..sure to treaure to the eyes!!
with regards
Dinesh
Good morning my dearest one..Take care..My prayers and
Yours Lyudmila..
warm love to you and more.. Regards for my dear Auro..
Dear Mr. Bachchan,
Namastey.
The excitement of Auro (PAA) is really catching on. You have so passed out enough energy for us to salivate about the film. As i said before i hope the circulation is good so that we get to see it here in Nigeria too before the excitement of it goes down. I pray it succeeds hugely.
I wonder while doing the Monkey dance for Auro you were not tempted to dance normally-you are such a beautiful dancer.
Ha, a snake-my impression was that snakes are an everyday part of Indian life so sighting it there in your chalet would not be a big deal. But the tone which you talked about it says it isn’t. Thank God they noticed it in time before you entered the room.
Like you we are counting the days to the release of Paa and praying with you that it gets the success it deserves. All the best and enjoy your day sir
Sincerely,
Abiola
Dear Auro -THE Amitabh Bachchan
I simply like to repeat what I said earlier! Here it is ! ( Read JAI i/o JAY)
DAY 562(i)
Mario Andrew Rodrigues says:
November 4, 2009 at 6:32 pm
JAY! JAY! JAY! This is what people remembered for many many years after they watched Sholay.
AURO! AURO! AURO! AURO! AURO! is what everyone in this world would be remembering for years, years and years to come. I have started saying already. Its not probably right as for you its just another movie character, but you choose wonderful characters.
The 1.06 min promo which I saw already in the morning on youtube and did make my comments few days ago and today. I repeat.
BOX OFFICE HIT
AWARD WINNING MOVIE
CONGRATULATIONS TO ONE AND EVERYONE WHO IS INVOLVED IN THIS MOVIE, EVEN TO THE ONE WHO PUT THOSE HOLES IN THE BOX TO SEE AUROS EYES & HEAD.
YOU SHOULD PLAN IN ADVANCE FOR THE 100TH DAY CELEBRATIONS(my wishes are always there even though I am miles away)
Sir, if I , a man, who does not generate tears easily could feel the flow of tears almost there by seeing just a minute of promo, I am 101% sure I have to carry atleast 3 handkerchiefs to the theatre. No jokes. No exagerration. No flattering. No, not tears of sorrows. But tears of Joy and Happiness.
This is a very genuine observation from , as I told said earlier, from an ordinary Mario , one of the many FmXt you consider special.
Once again I repeat, Its not just because of PAA, Its not just because you write to us, Its not because you respect us, but it is all because you have a SPECIAL HEART, you are a SPECIAL HUMAN. SIMPLY SPECIAL.
Thank you for all that you have gone through. For hardwork there is a reward for sure, but when there is hardwork and involving ones God to guard, protect, bless, guide, lead there simply CANNOT be a failure. God has wonderful plans for you and your hardwork and being a normal and for your wonderful human heart.
Beat it , beat it, is one song of our dear Pop King MJ which many still want to dance on and like him. Believe me or not, there will be many today on seeing you dance would not hesitate to copy your unique and elegant style. Noone can simple beat it! You are a star. A bright star. Shinning star. Favourite star. Lovely star.
Sp.Regards
Love
Hugs
Best Wishes

Sir, I am not sure what you think about your association with Bigg Boss 3 but I think it is degrading and person of your stature should not have any more association with this damn show. The way its currently going, I am sure this is all preplanned as I think the reason Vinod had to leave the house as he was the only quiet guy. The show producers must have thought that this would not increase their TRP rating and therefore, they evicted Vinod. I seriously have doubts about the voting and selection process.
The show brought back the guy who did never respect the women on the show. THIS IS SHAME ON THE SHOW!!!!
Namastey Amitji,
SADAR CHARAN SPARSH,

Dear Mr. Bachchan,
Watching the monkey dance video was a heartwarmingly pleasant experience. Thank you.

Dear Amitji, Good Morning. Moment of reckoning is the moment you describe in your closing paragraphs. So have that nervous feeling and do cross your fingers. Efforts are one thing and end result in perception of public is another. So there is always a luck factor in life and that cannot over rule other things. Otherwise we would be scripting our lives as a film script writer decides movie lines. Have patience and some popcorns in advance. Do your best and forget the rest. Geeta also advices so. Karma karo Aur Fal ki itchcha mat karo.
I liked your Auro dance. I too do some similar monkey dance everyday while taking bath. Soap hot & cold water make me dance like Auro under the shower.
Sound mixing seems to be art and technology combo. The final product surely is in the hands of the technicians. One has to have good assistants to deliver a good final version of the product. So a closer look by the expert is always essential to get the best output.
Have a wonderful day and enjoy life of Auro. I feel the genetic deffect of fast growth must be our ancestral genes now muted and may be occuring once in a million cases.
My regards to all those technicians who give good name and success to their bosses.
Ravi P malhotra
uncle. it is wrong to promote your film through blog. we do not come here to see promos. On any other day, you would have written about cricket, politics, your parents etc. Sachin’s amazing inning of 175 at Hyd., attack on IBN7 office etc. so much is happening and you are silent. busy in promoting only Paa. This is wrong.

Hi Mr Bachchan
Hope my mail finds you in the best of health and spirits.
I am in good spirits as I watched the song promo and remixed version of PAA.Auro dancing happily in water was so much fun to watch.
Little do we know that so much so goes into the post making of the film.Promotion distribution and prints,quality.
I think many a times ordeans are so cruel in passing the verdict the verdit.Seldom they think about the hard work.
Wishing all the best and my love to darling Auro.
Yesterday eviction in BB3 was very unexpected as I was convinced that rohit would go.
Take care
Love & warm regards

Hi AMIT JI !
How are u !
Lovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvve U,
Take care,
Khuda hafiz.
salaaaaaaaaaam amitji!
love u too dear!
it’s for you:
I shall build a boat
I shall build a boat
I shall cast it in the water
I shall sail away from this strange earth
Where no one awaken the heroes in the wood of love
A boat empty of net
And longing heart for pearls
I shall continue sailing
Neither I shall loose my heart for the blues
Nor for t he mermaids who emerge from the water
To spread their charm from their locks
On the shining solitude of fishermen
I shall continue sailing
I shall continue singing
“One should sail away, sail away.”
The man in that town had no myth
The woman in that town was not as brimful as a cluster of grapes
No hall mirror repeated joys
Not even puddles reflected a torch
One should sail away, sail away
Night has sung its song
Now it is the turn of windows
I shall continue sailing
I shall continue singing
Beyond the seas there is a town
In which windows open to manifestation
There rooftops quarter pigeons that looks at the jets of human intelligence
In the hand of each 10-year-old child a branch of knowledge lies
The townsfolk took at hedges
As if they look at a flame, a tender dream
Earth hears the music of your feeling
And the fluttering sound of mythological birds are heard in the wind
Beyond the seas there is a town
Where the sun is as wide as the eyes of early-risers
Poets inherit water, wisdom and light
Beyond the seas there is a town!
One must build a boat

Hi Big B and entire Big FmXT,
Enjoy the Saturday!
There’s this little guy sitting inside a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half-an-hour.
Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down.
The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says: “Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I’ll buy you another drink. I just can’t see a man crying.” “No, it’s not that. Today day is the worst of my life. First, I overslept and was late to an important meeting. My boss, outrageous, fired me. When I left the building to my car, I found out it was stolen. The police, they said they could do nothing. I got a cab to return home, and after I paid the cab driver and the cab had gone, I found that I left my whole wallet in the cab. I got home only to find my wife was in bed with the gardener. I left home and came to this bar. And when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drink my poison …”
Dear Mr. Bachchan,
Wonderful promo!
Thanks and Regards,
Naishadh Vyas

Amithji,
I get the feeling some times, some melodious songs get deleated from the movie due to lack of space. Like what happened with Chini Kum. Couple of good melodious songs were not pictured in that movie. One in the audio it was available.
Please take care of this
Ram
I can’t tell how happy am I feeling while writing whatever I am writing to you because it is going to be read by you bouju..
yes..bouji..(this is wht I call my Grandpa and u)
I don’t know where to begin from? actually I am feeling so disgraceful that in spite of having indulgence in internet for these many years why I was this late to write to you..
anyways PRANAAM first of all
Long back about 6 years ago I wrote you a letter and anticipated a response but no problem this is with same affection and same love and same HOPE for a reply sir..
ALL THE BEST for your upcoming movie PAA…
good bye
jai shree krishna
Shriman Amitabh Harivanshraiji Bachchan,
After a small break, a few yellow lines - to a few lucky ones.
Does it mean others donot deserve or just that U couldnt go through all the response ?
No complaint Sir - i was just wondering as to the cause so that one can try to improve oneself.
As to the snake in ur room,pls visit Shri Mahakaleshwar Mandir (Ujjain).
This will work & benefit in either of the cause/reason.Take this as an reminder/opportunity to visit/revisit the Jyotirling.

Shashishekhar Maheshdattji Vyas

Dear Amitji,
Now you know the reasoning behind some of the unpleasant comments in this blog. It was and will be done only to make you get used to snakes. We prepare you for shocks too Ha!
Very educative piece on mixing. Agree with many EF comments that all this hard work need not be judged by success at the box office alone. works of art such as these have the capability of fullfilling the inner desires of all involved in its making. One needs to just check if that fulfillment is achieved or not and the rest actually does not matter.
End Line -
George Carlin - comedian of the 70’s and 80’s - could write something so very eloquent…and so very appropriate.
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways , but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life. We’ve added years to life not life to years. We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We’ve done larger things, but not better things.
We’ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We’ve conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete…
Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn’t cost a cent.
Remember, to say, ‘I love you’ to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. An embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.
Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
Yours as always
Ramanathan
Kashmira - EF aapko ‘Kash’ Didi isiliye bulati hai, ki “KASH” duniya me sab aap jaisi hon

Sadar Charan Sparsh
I have learned from Bhavan’s that there are no tickets to Bachchan Sandhya that is to be held on 28th September 2009.. So I can not be there to be with you.. Dr. Bachchan and me have to wait for some other auspicious occasion to be together under one roof.. it is all right.. if any one has passes and could share just one with me.. one could send an email to me at anusite@gmail.com..
No, no, it is not really very important to be part of it.. I believe certain things have to wait for a long long time.. I shall wait for the right moment.. yet who stops me from wishing the program a grand success..
madhushala ke pannon par hi
likhi maine madhushala
madhushala thha naam diyaa
par kram thha uska granthalaa
…
I dedicate the above poem to Swargiya Dr. Bachchan.. the man behind the Madhushala.. the Madhushala that made lovers of poetry in this country go berserk.. the Madhushala that is still as exciting as it must have been when it was first created in the mid-thirties, ehh.. that is nearly a diamond jubilee for his efforts..
Those who have not read or heard madhushala.. I shall request them all to get a feel of it either in Manna Dey Sahab’s voice or brother’s own renditions.. it is one of the most creative work that I have ever come across…
मृदु भावों के अंगूरों की आज बना लाया हाला,
प्रियतम, अपने ही हाथों से आज पिलाऊँगा प्याला,
पहले भोग लगा लूँ तेरा फिर प्रसाद जग पाएगा,
सबसे पहले तेरा स्वागत करती मेरी मधुशाला।।१।
प्यास तुझे तो, विश्व तपाकर पूर्ण निकालूँगा हाला,
एक पाँव से साकी बनकर नाचूँगा लेकर प्याला,
जीवन की मधुता तो तेरे ऊपर कब का वार चुका,
आज निछावर कर दूँगा मैं तुझ पर जग की मधुशाला।।२।
प्रियतम, तू मेरी हाला है, मैं तेरा प्यासा प्याला,
अपने को मुझमें भरकर तू बनता है पीनेवाला,
मैं तुझको छक छलका करता, मस्त मुझे पी तू होता,
एक दूसरे की हम दोनों आज परस्पर मधुशाला।।३।
भावुकता अंगूर लता से खींच कल्पना की हाला,
कवि साकी बनकर आया है भरकर कविता का प्याला,
कभी न कण-भर खाली होगा लाख पिएँ, दो लाख पिएँ!
पाठकगण हैं पीनेवाले, पुस्तक मेरी मधुशाला।।४।
मधुर भावनाओं की सुमधुर नित्य बनाता हूँ हाला,
भरता हूँ इस मधु से अपने अंतर का प्यासा प्याला,
उठा कल्पना के हाथों से स्वयं उसे पी जाता हूँ,
अपने ही में हूँ मैं साकी, पीनेवाला, मधुशाला।।५।
मदिरालय जाने को घर से चलता है पीनेवला,
‘किस पथ से जाऊँ?’ असमंजस में है वह भोलाभाला,
अलग-अलग पथ बतलाते सब पर मैं यह बतलाता हूँ -
‘राह पकड़ तू एक चला चल, पा जाएगा मधुशाला।’। ६।
चलने ही चलने में कितना जीवन, हाय, बिता डाला!
‘दूर अभी है’, पर, कहता है हर पथ बतलानेवाला,
हिम्मत है न बढूँ आगे को साहस है न फिरुँ पीछे,
किंकर्तव्यविमूढ़ मुझे कर दूर खड़ी है मधुशाला।।७।
मुख से तू अविरत कहता जा मधु, मदिरा, मादक हाला,
हाथों में अनुभव करता जा एक ललित कल्पित प्याला,
ध्यान किए जा मन में सुमधुर सुखकर, सुंदर साकी का,
और बढ़ा चल, पथिक, न तुझको दूर लगेगी मधुशाला।।८।
मदिरा पीने की अभिलाषा ही बन जाए जब हाला,
अधरों की आतुरता में ही जब आभासित हो प्याला,
बने ध्यान ही करते-करते जब साकी साकार, सखे,
रहे न हाला, प्याला, साकी, तुझे मिलेगी मधुशाला।।९।
सुन, कलकल़ , छलछल़ मधुघट से गिरती प्यालों में हाला,
सुन, रूनझुन रूनझुन चल वितरण करती मधु साकीबाला,
बस आ पहुंचे, दुर नहीं कुछ, चार कदम अब चलना है,
चहक रहे, सुन, पीनेवाले, महक रही, ले, मधुशाला।।१०।
जलतरंग बजता, जब चुंबन करता प्याले को प्याला,
वीणा झंकृत होती, चलती जब रूनझुन साकीबाला,
डाँट डपट मधुविक्रेता की ध्वनित पखावज करती है,
मधुरव से मधु की मादकता और बढ़ाती मधुशाला।।११।
मेंहदी रंजित मृदुल हथेली पर माणिक मधु का प्याला,
अंगूरी अवगुंठन डाले स्वर्ण वर्ण साकीबाला,
पाग बैंजनी, जामा नीला डाट डटे पीनेवाले,
इन्द्रधनुष से होड़ लगाती आज रंगीली मधुशाला।।१२।
हाथों में आने से पहले नाज़ दिखाएगा प्याला,
अधरों पर आने से पहले अदा दिखाएगी हाला,
बहुतेरे इनकार करेगा साकी आने से पहले,
पथिक, न घबरा जाना, पहले मान करेगी मधुशाला।।१३।
लाल सुरा की धार लपट सी कह न इसे देना ज्वाला,
फेनिल मदिरा है, मत इसको कह देना उर का छाला,
दर्द नशा है इस मदिरा का विगत स्मृतियाँ साकी हैं,
पीड़ा में आनंद जिसे हो, आए मेरी मधुशाला।।१४।
जगती की शीतल हाला सी पथिक, नहीं मेरी हाला,
जगती के ठंडे प्याले सा पथिक, नहीं मेरा प्याला,
ज्वाल सुरा जलते प्याले में दग्ध हृदय की कविता है,
जलने से भयभीत न जो हो, आए मेरी मधुशाला।।१५।
बहती हाला देखी, देखो लपट उठाती अब हाला,
देखो प्याला अब छूते ही होंठ जला देनेवाला,
‘होंठ नहीं, सब देह दहे, पर पीने को दो बूंद मिले’
ऐसे मधु के दीवानों को आज बुलाती मधुशाला।।१६।
धर्मग्रन्थ सब जला चुकी है, जिसके अंतर की ज्वाला,
मंदिर, मसजिद, गिरिजे, सब को तोड़ चुका जो मतवाला,
पंडित, मोमिन, पादिरयों के फंदों को जो काट चुका,
कर सकती है आज उसी का स्वागत मेरी मधुशाला।।१७।
लालायित अधरों से जिसने, हाय, नहीं चूमी हाला,
हर्ष-विकंपित कर से जिसने, हा, न छुआ मधु का प्याला,
हाथ पकड़ लज्जित साकी को पास नहीं जिसने खींचा,
व्यर्थ सुखा डाली जीवन की उसने मधुमय मधुशाला।।१८।
बने पुजारी प्रेमी साकी, गंगाजल पावन हाला,
रहे फेरता अविरत गति से मधु के प्यालों की माला’
‘और लिये जा, और पीये जा’, इसी मंत्र का जाप करे’
मैं शिव की प्रतिमा बन बैठूं, मंदिर हो यह मधुशाला।।१९।
बजी न मंदिर में घड़ियाली, चढ़ी न प्रतिमा पर माला,
बैठा अपने भवन मुअज्ज़िन देकर मस्जिद में ताला,
लुटे ख़जाने नरपितयों के गिरीं गढ़ों की दीवारें,
रहें मुबारक पीनेवाले, खुली रहे यह मधुशाला।।२०।
बड़े बड़े पिरवार मिटें यों, एक न हो रोनेवाला,
हो जाएँ सुनसान महल वे, जहाँ थिरकतीं सुरबाला,
राज्य उलट जाएँ, भूपों की भाग्य सुलक्ष्मी सो जाए,
जमे रहेंगे पीनेवाले, जगा करेगी मधुशाला।।२१।
सब मिट जाएँ, बना रहेगा सुन्दर साकी, यम काला,
सूखें सब रस, बने रहेंगे, किन्तु, हलाहल औ’ हाला,
धूमधाम औ’ चहल पहल के स्थान सभी सुनसान बनें,
झगा करेगा अविरत मरघट, जगा करेगी मधुशाला।।२२।
भुरा सदा कहलायेगा जग में बाँका, मदचंचल प्याला,
छैल छबीला, रसिया साकी, अलबेला पीनेवाला,
पटे कहाँ से, मधु औ’ जग की जोड़ी ठीक नहीं,
जग जर्जर प्रतिदन, प्रतिक्षण, पर नित्य नवेली मधुशाला।।२३।
बिना पिये जो मधुशाला को बुरा कहे, वह मतवाला,
पी लेने पर तो उसके मुह पर पड़ जाएगा ताला,
दास द्रोहियों दोनों में है जीत सुरा की, प्याले की,
विश्वविजयिनी बनकर जग में आई मेरी मधुशाला।।२४।
हरा भरा रहता मदिरालय, जग पर पड़ जाए पाला,
वहाँ मुहर्रम का तम छाए, यहाँ होलिका की ज्वाला,
स्वर्ग लोक से सीधी उतरी वसुधा पर, दुख क्या जाने,
पढ़े मर्सिया दुनिया सारी, ईद मनाती मधुशाला।।२५।
एक बरस में, एक बार ही जगती होली की ज्वाला,
एक बार ही लगती बाज़ी, जलती दीपों की माला,
दुनियावालों, किन्तु, किसी दिन आ मदिरालय में देखो,
दिन को होली, रात दिवाली, रोज़ मनाती मधुशाला।।२६।
नहीं जानता कौन, मनुज आया बनकर पीनेवाला,
कौन अपिरिचत उस साकी से, जिसने दूध पिला पाला,
जीवन पाकर मानव पीकर मस्त रहे, इस कारण ही,
जग में आकर सबसे पहले पाई उसने मधुशाला।।२७।
बनी रहें अंगूर लताएँ जिनसे मिलती है हाला,
बनी रहे वह मिटटी जिससे बनता है मधु का प्याला,
बनी रहे वह मदिर पिपासा तृप्त न जो होना जाने,
बनें रहें ये पीने वाले, बनी रहे यह मधुशाला।।२८।
सकुशल समझो मुझको, सकुशल रहती यदि साकीबाला,
मंगल और अमंगल समझे मस्ती में क्या मतवाला,
मित्रों, मेरी क्षेम न पूछो आकर, पर मधुशाला की,
कहा करो ‘जय राम’ न मिलकर, कहा करो ‘जय मधुशाला’।।२९।
सूर्य बने मधु का विक्रेता, सिंधु बने घट, जल, हाला,
बादल बन-बन आए साकी, भूमि बने मधु का प्याला,
झड़ी लगाकर बरसे मदिरा रिमझिम, रिमझिम, रिमझिम कर,
बेलि, विटप, तृण बन मैं पीऊँ, वर्षा ऋतु हो मधुशाला।।३०।
तारक मणियों से सज्जित नभ बन जाए मधु का प्याला,
सीधा करके भर दी जाए उसमें सागरजल हाला,
मज्ञल्तऌा समीरण साकी बनकर अधरों पर छलका जाए,
फैले हों जो सागर तट से विश्व बने यह मधुशाला।।३१।
अधरों पर हो कोई भी रस जिहवा पर लगती हाला,
भाजन हो कोई हाथों में लगता रक्खा है प्याला,
हर सूरत साकी की सूरत में परिवर्तित हो जाती,

पौधे आज बने हैं साकी ले ले फूलों का प्याला,
भरी हुई है जिसके अंदर पिरमल-मधु-सुरिभत हाला,

साकी बन आती है प्रातः जब अरुणा ऊषा बाला,

प्रति प्रभात में पूर्ण प्रकृति में मुखिरत होती मधुशाला।।३६।
उतर नशा जब उसका जाता, आती है संध्या बाला,
बड़ी पुरानी, बड़ी नशीली नित्य ढला जाती हाला,

सुरा-सुप्त होते मद-लोभी जागृत रहती मधुशाला।।३७।
अंधकार है मधुविक्रेता, सुन्दर साकी शशिबाला

वादक बन मधु का विक्रेता लाया सुर-सुमधुर-हाला,

चित्रकार बन साकी आता लेकर तूली का प्याला,

पीकर खेत खड़े लहराते, भारत पावन मधुशाला।।४४।

दुतकारा मस्जिद ने मुझको कहकर है पीनेवाला,
ठुकराया ठाकुरद्वारे ने देख हथेली पर प्याला,
कहाँ ठिकाना मिलता जग में भला अभागे काफिर को?
शरणस्थल बनकर न मुझे यदि अपना लेती मधुशाला।।४६।
पथिक बना मैं घूम रहा हूँ, सभी जगह मिलती हाला,
सभी जगह मिल जाता साकी, सभी जगह मिलता प्याला,
मुझे ठहरने का, हे मित्रों, कष्ट नहीं कुछ भी होता,
मिले न मंदिर, मिले न मस्जिद, मिल जाती है मधुशाला।।४७।
सजें न मस्जिद और नमाज़ी कहता है अल्लाताला,
सजधजकर, पर, साकी आता, बन ठनकर, पीनेवाला,
शेख, कहाँ तुलना हो सकती मस्जिद की मदिरालय से
चिर विधवा है मस्जिद तेरी, सदा सुहागिन मधुशाला।।४८।
बजी नफ़ीरी और नमाज़ी भूल गया अल्लाताला,
गाज गिरी, पर ध्यान सुरा में मग्न रहा पीनेवाला,
शेख, बुरा मत मानो इसको, साफ़ कहूँ तो मस्जिद को
अभी युगों तक सिखलाएगी ध्यान लगाना मधुशाला!।४९।
मुसलमान औ’ हिन्दू है दो, एक, मगर, उनका प्याला,
एक, मगर, उनका मदिरालय, एक, मगर, उनकी हाला,
दोनों रहते एक न जब तक मस्जिद मन्दिर में जाते,
बैर बढ़ाते मस्जिद मन्दिर मेल कराती मधुशाला!।५०।
कोई भी हो शेख नमाज़ी या पंडित जपता माला,
बैर भाव चाहे जितना हो मदिरा से रखनेवाला,
एक बार बस मधुशाला के आगे से होकर निकले,
देखूँ कैसे थाम न लेती दामन उसका मधुशाला!।५१।
और रसों में स्वाद तभी तक, दूर जभी तक है हाला,
इतरा लें सब पात्र न जब तक, आगे आता है प्याला,
कर लें पूजा शेख, पुजारी तब तक मस्जिद मन्दिर में
घूँघट का पट खोल न जब तक झाँक रही है मधुशाला।।५२।
आज करे परहेज़ जगत, पर, कल पीनी होगी हाला,
आज करे इन्कार जगत पर कल पीना होगा प्याला,
होने दो पैदा मद का महमूद जगत में कोई, फिर
जहाँ अभी हैं मन्िदर मस्जिद वहाँ बनेगी मधुशाला।।५३।
यज्ञ अग्नि सी धधक रही है मधु की भटठी की ज्वाला,
ऋषि सा ध्यान लगा बैठा है हर मदिरा पीने वाला,
मुनि कन्याओं सी मधुघट ले फिरतीं साकीबालाएँ,
किसी तपोवन से क्या कम है मेरी पावन मधुशाला।।५४।
सोम सुरा पुरखे पीते थे, हम कहते उसको हाला,
द्रोणकलश जिसको कहते थे, आज वही मधुघट आला,
वेदिवहित यह रस्म न छोड़ो वेदों के ठेकेदारों,
युग युग से है पुजती आई नई नहीं है मधुशाला।।५५।
वही वारूणी जो थी सागर मथकर निकली अब हाला,
रंभा की संतान जगत में कहलाती ‘साकीबाला’,
देव अदेव जिसे ले आए, संत महंत मिटा देंगे!
किसमें कितना दम खम, इसको खूब समझती मधुशाला।।५६।
कभी न सुन पड़ता, ‘इसने, हा, छू दी मेरी हाला’,
कभी न कोई कहता, ‘उसने जूठा कर डाला प्याला’,
सभी जाति के लोग यहाँ पर साथ बैठकर पीते हैं,
सौ सुधारकों का करती है काम अकेले मधुशाला।।५७।
श्रम, संकट, संताप, सभी तुम भूला करते पी हाला,
सबक बड़ा तुम सीख चुके यदि सीखा रहना मतवाला,
व्यर्थ बने जाते हो हिरजन, तुम तो मधुजन ही अच्छे,
ठुकराते हिर मंिदरवाले, पलक बिछाती मधुशाला।।५८।
एक तरह से सबका स्वागत करती है साकीबाला,
अज्ञ विज्ञ में है क्या अंतर हो जाने पर मतवाला,
रंक राव में भेद हुआ है कभी नहीं मदिरालय में,
साम्यवाद की प्रथम प्रचारक है यह मेरी मधुशाला।।५९।
बार बार मैंने आगे बढ़ आज नहीं माँगी हाला,
समझ न लेना इससे मुझको साधारण पीने वाला,
हो तो लेने दो ऐ साकी दूर प्रथम संकोचों को,
मेरे ही स्वर से फिर सारी गूँज उठेगी मधुशाला।।६०।
कल? कल पर विश्वास किया कब करता है पीनेवाला
हो सकते कल कर जड़ जिनसे फिर फिर आज उठा प्याला,
आज हाथ में था, वह खोया, कल का कौन भरोसा है,
कल की हो न मुझे मधुशाला काल कुटिल की मधुशाला।।६१।
आज मिला अवसर, तब फिर क्यों मैं न छकूँ जी-भर हाला
आज मिला मौका, तब फिर क्यों ढाल न लूँ जी-भर प्याला,
छेड़छाड़ अपने साकी से आज न क्यों जी-भर कर लूँ,
एक बार ही तो मिलनी है जीवन की यह मधुशाला।।६२।
आज सजीव बना लो, प्रेयसी, अपने अधरों का प्याला,
भर लो, भर लो, भर लो इसमें, यौवन मधुरस की हाला,
और लगा मेरे होठों से भूल हटाना तुम जाओ,
अथक बनू मैं पीनेवाला, खुले प्रणय की मधुशाला।।६३।
सुमुखी तुम्हारा, सुन्दर मुख ही, मुझको कन्चन का प्याला
छलक रही है जिसमंे माणिक रूप मधुर मादक हाला,
मैं ही साकी बनता, मैं ही पीने वाला बनता हूँ
जहाँ कहीं मिल बैठे हम तुम़ वहीं गयी हो मधुशाला।।६४।
दो दिन ही मधु मुझे पिलाकर ऊब उठी साकीबाला,
भरकर अब खिसका देती है वह मेरे आगे प्याला,
नाज़, अदा, अंदाजों से अब, हाय पिलाना दूर हुआ,
अब तो कर देती है केवल फ़र्ज़ -अदाई मधुशाला।।६५।
छोटे-से जीवन में कितना प्यार करुँ, पी लूँ हाला,
आने के ही साथ जगत में कहलाया ‘जानेवाला’,
स्वागत के ही साथ विदा की होती देखी तैयारी,
बंद लगी होने खुलते ही मेरी जीवन-मधुशाला।।६६।
क्या पीना, निर्द्वन्द न जब तक ढाला प्यालों पर प्याला,
क्या जीना, निरंिचत न जब तक साथ रहे साकीबाला,
खोने का भय, हाय, लगा है पाने के सुख के पीछे,
मिलने का आनंद न देती मिलकर के भी मधुशाला।।६७।
मुझे पिलाने को लाए हो इतनी थोड़ी-सी हाला!
मुझे दिखाने को लाए हो एक यही छिछला प्याला!
इतनी पी जीने से अच्छा सागर की ले प्यास मरुँ,
सिंधँु-तृषा दी किसने रचकर बिंदु-बराबर मधुशाला।।६८।
क्या कहता है, रह न गई अब तेरे भाजन में हाला,
क्या कहता है, अब न चलेगी मादक प्यालों की माला,
थोड़ी पीकर प्यास बढ़ी तो शेष नहीं कुछ पीने को,
प्यास बुझाने को बुलवाकर प्यास बढ़ाती मधुशाला।।६९।
लिखी भाग्य में जितनी बस उतनी ही पाएगा हाला,
लिखा भाग्य में जैसा बस वैसा ही पाएगा प्याला,
लाख पटक तू हाथ पाँव, पर इससे कब कुछ होने का,
लिखी भाग्य में जो तेरे बस वही मिलेगी मधुशाला।।७०।
कर ले, कर ले कंजूसी तू मुझको देने में हाला,
दे ले, दे ले तू मुझको बस यह टूटा फूटा प्याला,
मैं तो सब्र इसी पर करता, तू पीछे पछताएगी,
जब न रहूँगा मैं, तब मेरी याद करेगी मधुशाला।।७१।
ध्यान मान का, अपमानों का छोड़ दिया जब पी हाला,
गौरव भूला, आया कर में जब से मिट्टी का प्याला,
साकी की अंदाज़ भरी झिड़की में क्या अपमान धरा,
दुनिया भर की ठोकर खाकर पाई मैंने मधुशाला।।७२।
क्षीण, क्षुद्र, क्षणभंगुर, दुर्बल मानव मिटटी का प्याला,
भरी हुई है जिसके अंदर कटु-मधु जीवन की हाला,
मृत्यु बनी है निर्दय साकी अपने शत-शत कर फैला,
काल प्रबल है पीनेवाला, संसृति है यह मधुशाला।।७३।
प्याले सा गढ़ हमें किसी ने भर दी जीवन की हाला,
नशा न भाया, ढाला हमने ले लेकर मधु का प्याला,
जब जीवन का दर्द उभरता उसे दबाते प्याले से,
जगती के पहले साकी से जूझ रही है मधुशाला।।७४।
अपने अंगूरों से तन में हमने भर ली है हाला,
क्या कहते हो, शेख, नरक में हमें तपाएगी ज्वाला,
तब तो मदिरा खूब खिंचेगी और पिएगा भी कोई,
हमें नमक की ज्वाला में भी दीख पड़ेगी मधुशाला।।७५।
यम आएगा लेने जब, तब खूब चलूँगा पी हाला,
पीड़ा, संकट, कष्ट नरक के क्या समझेगा मतवाला,
क्रूर, कठोर, कुटिल, कुविचारी, अन्यायी यमराजों के
डंडों की जब मार पड़ेगी, आड़ करेगी मधुशाला।।७६।
यदि इन अधरों से दो बातें प्रेम भरी करती हाला,
यदि इन खाली हाथों का जी पल भर बहलाता प्याला,
हानि बता, जग, तेरी क्या है, व्यर्थ मुझे बदनाम न कर,
मेरे टूटे दिल का है बस एक खिलौना मधुशाला।।७७।
याद न आए दूखमय जीवन इससे पी लेता हाला,
जग चिंताओं से रहने को मुक्त, उठा लेता प्याला,
शौक, साध के और स्वाद के हेतु पिया जग करता है,
पर मै वह रोगी हूँ जिसकी एक दवा है मधुशाला।।७८।
गिरती जाती है दिन प्रतिदन प्रणयनी प्राणों की हाला
भग्न हुआ जाता दिन प्रतिदन सुभगे मेरा तन प्याला,
रूठ रहा है मुझसे रूपसी, दिन दिन यौवन का साकी
सूख रही है दिन दिन सुन्दरी, मेरी जीवन मधुशाला।।७९।
यम आयेगा साकी बनकर साथ लिए काली हाला,
पी न होश में फिर आएगा सुरा-विसुध यह मतवाला,
यह अंितम बेहोशी, अंतिम साकी, अंतिम प्याला है,
पथिक, प्यार से पीना इसको फिर न मिलेगी मधुशाला।८०।
ढलक रही है तन के घट से, संगिनी जब जीवन हाला
पत्र गरल का ले जब अंतिम साकी है आनेवाला,
हाथ स्पर्श भूले प्याले का, स्वाद सुरा जीव्हा भूले
कानो में तुम कहती रहना, मधु का प्याला मधुशाला।।८१।
मेरे अधरों पर हो अंितम वस्तु न तुलसीदल प्याला
मेरी जीव्हा पर हो अंतिम वस्तु न गंगाजल हाला,
मेरे शव के पीछे चलने वालों याद इसे रखना
राम नाम है सत्य न कहना, कहना सच्ची मधुशाला।।८२।
मेरे शव पर वह रोये, हो जिसके आंसू में हाला
आह भरे वो, जो हो सुरिभत मदिरा पी कर मतवाला,
दे मुझको वो कान्धा जिनके पग मद डगमग होते हों
और जलूं उस ठौर जहां पर कभी रही हो मधुशाला।।८३।
और चिता पर जाये उंढेला पत्र न घ्रित का, पर प्याला
कंठ बंधे अंगूर लता में मध्य न जल हो, पर हाला,
प्राण प्रिये यदि श्राध करो तुम मेरा तो ऐसे करना
पीने वालांे को बुलवा कऱ खुलवा देना मधुशाला।।८४।
नाम अगर कोई पूछे तो, कहना बस पीनेवाला
काम ढालना, और ढालना सबको मदिरा का प्याला,
जाति प्रिये, पूछे यदि कोई कह देना दीवानों की
धर्म बताना प्यालों की ले माला जपना मधुशाला।।८५।
ज्ञात हुआ यम आने को है ले अपनी काली हाला,
पंिडत अपनी पोथी भूला, साधू भूल गया माला,
और पुजारी भूला पूजा, ज्ञान सभी ज्ञानी भूला,
किन्तु न भूला मरकर के भी पीनेवाला मधुशाला।।८६।
यम ले चलता है मुझको तो, चलने दे लेकर हाला,
चलने दे साकी को मेरे साथ लिए कर में प्याला,
स्वर्ग, नरक या जहाँ कहीं भी तेरा जी हो लेकर चल,
ठौर सभी हैं एक तरह के साथ रहे यदि मधुशाला।।८७।
पाप अगर पीना, समदोषी तो तीनों - साकी बाला,
नित्य पिलानेवाला प्याला, पी जानेवाली हाला,
साथ इन्हें भी ले चल मेरे न्याय यही बतलाता है,
कैद जहाँ मैं हूँ, की जाए कैद वहीं पर मधुशाला।।८८।
शांत सकी हो अब तक, साकी, पीकर किस उर की ज्वाला,
‘और, और’ की रटन लगाता जाता हर पीनेवाला,
कितनी इच्छाएँ हर जानेवाला छोड़ यहाँ जाता!
कितने अरमानों की बनकर कब्र खड़ी है मधुशाला।।८९।
जो हाला मैं चाह रहा था, वह न मिली मुझको हाला,
जो प्याला मैं माँग रहा था, वह न मिला मुझको प्याला,
जिस साकी के पीछे मैं था दीवाना, न मिला साकी,
जिसके पीछे था मैं पागल, हा न मिली वह मधुशाला!।९०।
देख रहा हूँ अपने आगे कब से माणिक-सी हाला,
देख रहा हूँ अपने आगे कब से कंचन का प्याला,
‘बस अब पाया!’- कह-कह कब से दौड़ रहा इसके पीछे,
किंतु रही है दूर क्षितिज-सी मुझसे मेरी मधुशाला।।९१।
कभी निराशा का तम घिरता, छिप जाता मधु का प्याला,
छिप जाती मदिरा की आभा, छिप जाती साकीबाला,
कभी उजाला आशा करके प्याला फिर चमका जाती,
आँखिमचौली खेल रही है मुझसे मेरी मधुशाला।।९२।
‘आ आगे’ कहकर कर पीछे कर लेती साकीबाला,
होंठ लगाने को कहकर हर बार हटा लेती प्याला,
नहीं मुझे मालूम कहाँ तक यह मुझको ले जाएगी,
बढ़ा बढ़ाकर मुझको आगे, पीछे हटती मधुशाला।।९३।
हाथों में आने-आने में, हाय, फिसल जाता प्याला,
अधरों पर आने-आने में हाय, ढुलक जाती हाला,
दुनियावालो, आकर मेरी किस्मत की ख़ूबी देखो,
रह-रह जाती है बस मुझको मिलते-िमलते मधुशाला।।९४।
प्राप्य नही है तो, हो जाती लुप्त नहीं फिर क्यों हाला,
प्राप्य नही है तो, हो जाता लुप्त नहीं फिर क्यों प्याला,
दूर न इतनी हिम्मत हारुँ, पास न इतनी पा जाऊँ,
व्यर्थ मुझे दौड़ाती मरु में मृगजल बनकर मधुशाला।।९५।
मिले न, पर, ललचा ललचा क्यों आकुल करती है हाला,
मिले न, पर, तरसा तरसाकर क्यों तड़पाता है प्याला,
हाय, नियति की विषम लेखनी मस्तक पर यह खोद गई
‘दूर रहेगी मधु की धारा, पास रहेगी मधुशाला!’।९६।
मदिरालय में कब से बैठा, पी न सका अब तक हाला,
यत्न सहित भरता हूँ, कोई किंतु उलट देता प्याला,
मानव-बल के आगे निर्बल भाग्य, सुना विद्यालय में,
‘भाग्य प्रबल, मानव निर्बल’ का पाठ पढ़ाती मधुशाला।।९७।
किस्मत में था खाली खप्पर, खोज रहा था मैं प्याला,
ढूँढ़ रहा था मैं मृगनयनी, किस्मत में थी मृगछाला,
किसने अपना भाग्य समझने में मुझसा धोखा खाया,
किस्मत में था अवघट मरघट, ढूँढ़ रहा था मधुशाला।।९८।
उस प्याले से प्यार मुझे जो दूर हथेली से प्याला,
उस हाला से चाव मुझे जो दूर अधर से है हाला,
प्यार नहीं पा जाने में है, पाने के अरमानों में!
पा जाता तब, हाय, न इतनी प्यारी लगती मधुशाला।।९९।
साकी के पास है तिनक सी श्री, सुख, संपित की हाला,
सब जग है पीने को आतुर ले ले किस्मत का प्याला,
रेल ठेल कुछ आगे बढ़ते, बहुतेरे दबकर मरते,
जीवन का संघर्ष नहीं है, भीड़ भरी है मधुशाला।।१००।
साकी, जब है पास तुम्हारे इतनी थोड़ी सी हाला,
क्यों पीने की अभिलषा से, करते सबको मतवाला,
हम पिस पिसकर मरते हैं, तुम छिप छिपकर मुसकाते हो,
हाय, हमारी पीड़ा से है क्रीड़ा करती मधुशाला।।१०१।
साकी, मर खपकर यदि कोई आगे कर पाया प्याला,
पी पाया केवल दो बूंदों से न अधिक तेरी हाला,
जीवन भर का, हाय, पिरश्रम लूट लिया दो बूंदों ने,
भोले मानव को ठगने के हेतु बनी है मधुशाला।।१०२।
जिसने मुझको प्यासा रक्खा बनी रहे वह भी हाला,
जिसने जीवन भर दौड़ाया बना रहे वह भी प्याला,
मतवालों की जिहवा से हैं कभी निकलते शाप नहीं,
दुखी बनाय जिसने मुझको सुखी रहे वह मधुशाला!।१०३।
नहीं चाहता, आगे बढ़कर छीनूँ औरों की हाला,
नहीं चाहता, धक्के देकर, छीनूँ औरों का प्याला,
साकी, मेरी ओर न देखो मुझको तिनक मलाल नहीं,
इतना ही क्या कम आँखों से देख रहा हूँ मधुशाला।।१०४।
मद, मदिरा, मधु, हाला सुन-सुन कर ही जब हूँ मतवाला,
क्या गति होगी अधरों के जब नीचे आएगा प्याला,
साकी, मेरे पास न आना मैं पागल हो जाऊँगा,
प्यासा ही मैं मस्त, मुबारक हो तुमको ही मधुशाला।।१०५।
क्या मुझको आवश्यकता है साकी से माँगूँ हाला,
क्या मुझको आवश्यकता है साकी से चाहूँ प्याला,
पीकर मदिरा मस्त हुआ तो प्यार किया क्या मदिरा से!
मैं तो पागल हो उठता हूँ सुन लेता यदि मधुशाला।।१०६।
देने को जो मुझे कहा था दे न सकी मुझको हाला,
देने को जो मुझे कहा था दे न सका मुझको प्याला,
समझ मनुज की दुर्बलता मैं कहा नहीं कुछ भी करता,
किन्तु स्वयं ही देख मुझे अब शरमा जाती मधुशाला।।१०७।
एक समय संतुष्ट बहुत था पा मैं थोड़ी-सी हाला,
भोला-सा था मेरा साकी, छोटा-सा मेरा प्याला,
छोटे-से इस जग की मेरे स्वर्ग बलाएँ लेता था,
विस्तृत जग में, हाय, गई खो मेरी नन्ही मधुशाला!।१०८।
बहुतेरे मदिरालय देखे, बहुतेरी देखी हाला,
भाँित भाँित का आया मेरे हाथों में मधु का प्याला,
एक एक से बढ़कर, सुन्दर साकी ने सत्कार किया,
जँची न आँखों में, पर, कोई पहली जैसी मधुशाला।।१०९।
एक समय छलका करती थी मेरे अधरों पर हाला,
एक समय झूमा करता था मेरे हाथों पर प्याला,
एक समय पीनेवाले, साकी आलिंगन करते थे,
आज बनी हूँ निर्जन मरघट, एक समय थी मधुशाला।।११०।
जला हृदय की भट्टी खींची मैंने आँसू की हाला,
छलछल छलका करता इससे पल पल पलकों का प्याला,
आँखें आज बनी हैं साकी, गाल गुलाबी पी होते,
कहो न विरही मुझको, मैं हूँ चलती फिरती मधुशाला!।१११।
कितनी जल्दी रंग बदलती है अपना चंचल हाला,
कितनी जल्दी घिसने लगता हाथों में आकर प्याला,
कितनी जल्दी साकी का आकर्षण घटने लगता है,
प्रात नहीं थी वैसी, जैसी रात लगी थी मधुशाला।।११२।
बूँद बूँद के हेतु कभी तुझको तरसाएगी हाला,
कभी हाथ से छिन जाएगा तेरा यह मादक प्याला,
पीनेवाले, साकी की मीठी बातों में मत आना,
मेरे भी गुण यों ही गाती एक दिवस थी मधुशाला।।११३।
छोड़ा मैंने पथ मतों को तब कहलाया मतवाला,
चली सुरा मेरा पग धोने तोड़ा जब मैंने प्याला,
अब मानी मधुशाला मेरे पीछे पीछे फिरती है,
क्या कारण? अब छोड़ दिया है मैंने जाना मधुशाला।।११४।
यह न समझना, पिया हलाहल मैंने, जब न मिली हाला,
तब मैंने खप्पर अपनाया ले सकता था जब प्याला,
जले हृदय को और जलाना सूझा, मैंने मरघट को
अपनाया जब इन चरणों में लोट रही थी मधुशाला।।११५।
कितनी आई और गई पी इस मदिरालय में हाला,
टूट चुकी अब तक कितने ही मादक प्यालों की माला,
कितने साकी अपना अपना काम खतम कर दूर गए,
कितने पीनेवाले आए, किन्तु वही है मधुशाला।।११६।
कितने होठों को रक्खेगी याद भला मादक हाला,
कितने हाथों को रक्खेगा याद भला पागल प्याला,
कितनी शक्लों को रक्खेगा याद भला भोला साकी,
कितने पीनेवालों में है एक अकेली मधुशाला।।११७।
दर दर घूम रहा था जब मैं चिल्लाता - हाला! हाला!
मुझे न मिलता था मदिरालय, मुझे न मिलता था प्याला,
मिलन हुआ, पर नहीं मिलनसुख लिखा हुआ था किस्मत में,
मैं अब जमकर बैठ गया हँू, घूम रही है मधुशाला।।११८।
मैं मदिरालय के अंदर हूँ, मेरे हाथों में प्याला,
प्याले में मदिरालय बिंिबत करनेवाली है हाला,
इस उधेड़-बुन में ही मेरा सारा जीवन बीत गया -
मैं मधुशाला के अंदर या मेरे अंदर मधुशाला!।११९।
किसे नहीं पीने से नाता, किसे नहीं भाता प्याला,
इस जगती के मदिरालय में तरह-तरह की है हाला,
अपनी-अपनी इच्छा के अनुसार सभी पी मदमाते,
एक सभी का मादक साकी, एक सभी की मधुशाला।।१२०।
वह हाला, कर शांत सके जो मेरे अंतर की ज्वाला,
जिसमें मैं बिंिबत-प्रतिबंिबत प्रतिपल, वह मेरा प्याला,
मधुशाला वह नहीं जहाँ पर मदिरा बेची जाती है,
भेंट जहाँ मस्ती की मिलती मेरी तो वह मधुशाला।।१२१।
मतवालापन हाला से ले मैंने तज दी है हाला,
पागलपन लेकर प्याले से, मैंने त्याग दिया प्याला,
साकी से मिल, साकी में मिल अपनापन मैं भूल गया,
मिल मधुशाला की मधुता में भूल गया मैं मधुशाला।।१२२।
मदिरालय के द्वार ठोंकता किस्मत का छंछा प्याला,
गहरी, ठंडी सांसें भर भर कहता था हर मतवाला,
कितनी थोड़ी सी यौवन की हाला, हा, मैं पी पाया!
बंद हो गई कितनी जल्दी मेरी जीवन मधुशाला।।१२३।
कहाँ गया वह स्वर्गिक साकी, कहाँ गयी सुरिभत हाला,
कहँा गया स्वपिनल मदिरालय, कहाँ गया स्वर्णिम प्याला!
पीनेवालों ने मदिरा का मूल्य, हाय, कब पहचाना?
फूट चुका जब मधु का प्याला, टूट चुकी जब मधुशाला।।१२४।
अपने युग में सबको अनुपम ज्ञात हुई अपनी हाला,
अपने युग में सबको अदभुत ज्ञात हुआ अपना प्याला,
फिर भी वृद्धों से जब पूछा एक यही उज्ञल्तऌार पाया -
अब न रहे वे पीनेवाले, अब न रही वह मधुशाला!।१२५।
‘मय’ को करके शुद्ध दिया अब नाम गया उसको, ‘हाला’
‘मीना’ को ‘मधुपात्र’ दिया ‘सागर’ को नाम गया ‘प्याला’,
क्यों न मौलवी चौंकें, बिचकें तिलक-त्रिपुंडी पंिडत जी
‘मय-महिफल’ अब अपना ली है मैंने करके ‘मधुशाला’।।१२६।
कितने मर्म जता जाती है बार-बार आकर हाला,
कितने भेद बता जाता है बार-बार आकर प्याला,
कितने अर्थों को संकेतों से बतला जाता साकी,
फिर भी पीनेवालों को है एक पहेली मधुशाला।।१२७।
जितनी दिल की गहराई हो उतना गहरा है प्याला,
जितनी मन की मादकता हो उतनी मादक है हाला,
जितनी उर की भावुकता हो उतना सुन्दर साकी है,
जितना ही जो रिसक, उसे है उतनी रसमय मधुशाला।।१२८।
जिन अधरों को छुए, बना दे मस्त उन्हें मेरी हाला,
जिस कर को छूू दे, कर दे विक्षिप्त उसे मेरा प्याला,
आँख चार हों जिसकी मेरे साकी से दीवाना हो,
पागल बनकर नाचे वह जो आए मेरी मधुशाला।।१२९।
हर जिहवा पर देखी जाएगी मेरी मादक हाला
हर कर में देखा जाएगा मेरे साकी का प्याला
हर घर में चर्चा अब होगी मेरे मधुविक्रेता की
हर आंगन में गमक उठेगी मेरी सुरिभत मधुशाला।।१३०।
मेरी हाला में सबने पाई अपनी-अपनी हाला,
मेरे प्याले में सबने पाया अपना-अपना प्याला,
मेरे साकी में सबने अपना प्यारा साकी देखा,
जिसकी जैसी रुिच थी उसने वैसी देखी मधुशाला।।१३१।
यह मदिरालय के आँसू हैं, नहीं-नहीं मादक हाला,
यह मदिरालय की आँखें हैं, नहीं-नहीं मधु का प्याला,
किसी समय की सुखदस्मृति है साकी बनकर नाच रही,
नहीं-नहीं किव का हृदयांगण, यह विरहाकुल मधुशाला।।१३२।
कुचल हसरतें कितनी अपनी, हाय, बना पाया हाला,
कितने अरमानों को करके ख़ाक बना पाया प्याला!
पी पीनेवाले चल देंगे, हाय, न कोई जानेगा,
कितने मन के महल ढहे तब खड़ी हुई यह मधुशाला!।१३३।
विश्व तुम्हारे विषमय जीवन में ला पाएगी हाला
यदि थोड़ी-सी भी यह मेरी मदमाती साकीबाला,
शून्य तुम्हारी घड़ियाँ कुछ भी यदि यह गुंजित कर पाई,
जन्म सफल समझेगी जग में अपना मेरी मधुशाला।।१३४।
बड़े-बड़े नाज़ों से मैंने पाली है साकीबाला,
किलत कल्पना का ही इसने सदा उठाया है प्याला,
मान-दुलारों से ही रखना इस मेरी सुकुमारी को,
विश्व, तुम्हारे हाथों में अब सौंप रहा हूँ मधुशाला।।१३५।
पिरिशष्ट से
स्वयं नहीं पीता, औरों को, किन्तु पिला देता हाला,
स्वयं नहीं छूता, औरों को, पर पकड़ा देता प्याला,
पर उपदेश कुशल बहुतेरों से मैंने यह सीखा है,

मैं कायस्थ कुलोदभव मेरे पुरखों ने इतना ढ़ाला,
मेरे तन के लोहू में है पचहज्ञल्तऌार प्रतिशत हाला,
पुश्तैनी अधिकार मुझे है मदिरालय के आँगन पर,
मेरे दादों परदादों के हाथ बिकी थी मधुशाला।
बहुतों के सिर चार दिनों तक चढ़कर उतर गई हाला,
बहुतों के हाथों में दो दिन छलक झलक रीता प्याला,
पर बढ़ती तासीर सुरा की साथ समय के, इससे ही
और पुरानी होकर मेरी और नशीली मधुशाला।

किसी जगह की मिटटी भीगे, तृप्ति मुझे मिल जाएगी
तर्पण अर्पण करना मुझको, पढ़ पढ़ कर के मधुशाला।

So there is some limit after all as to how much can one add to one’s post.. well.. the point is noted.. that I had to learn it with the curtailement of posting the complete Madhushala is a bit of an irony..
Some comments that I had posted regarding Dr. Bachchan.. got lost with it as well.. certain responses especially the impulsive ones can never be re-recorded.. it is all right.. I was just trying to assert that there is no neccessity of my proving anything to anyone about my high respect for Dr. Harivansh Rai Bachchan.. and brother you should know that you have been one of the most fortunate by virtue of being born as his son.. indeed very very fortunate.. If I really love you as much as I love you.. pichahattar pratishat of that love emanates or comes from your beng his son.. the rest is what you have earned as an individual with some of your great contributions to Hindi Cinema..
Dearest Amitji….
For some reason I cant get to hear anything on the promo…i think there may be a problem with my speakers.
Looks fascinating though. One question…I know the film is co-produced with another company. Do you think after a short while AB Corp will be able to manage marketing, distribution etc etc all by itself or do you think that is too much of a risk at this time?
Anyway I pray it becomes a blockbuster. Sad that the London premiere had to be cancelled. Would have been there…that is if tickets were able to be sought.
Was it a poisonous snake?? Come on Amitji….you killed a tiger in Adalat…what is a bloody snake??? lol
At work and its cold….was wathcing bitsd of kabi khushi kabi gham last night….and im extremely sorry to say this Sir….but I dont like that film….i did at first but then my hatred for that dog got the better of me and i try jus watching portions of the film where you’re in whenever the film is aired….please please please do not make films with him ever again. He is a $^%$^E$^£^$^$&&%&^%$£$%^&!!!!!!!
Back to positive thinking….we got raided a couple of weeks back by the polivce and ‘alcohol licensing’ officials. We work in a racist area and someone complained about us and boom…police at the doorstep….dint find anything illegal though but took some ’suspicious’ material. Whatever that means.
Not too positive this is it?
One good news…we are expecting a new arrival and went to the hospital the other day for the scan. Alhamdullilah everything seems fine with the baby.
Amitji….its time for work again…as always….will be back again soon.
Lots of love

Hello Amitji,
I got a half page article in the Tuesday supplement of Deccan Herald. Very happy.
Now, I am wondering how to take it forward and build on it.

Been wanting to share it with you. I’ve told a;; my other friends and family.

Sir G,
Thanx God You are safe from the snake episode.
मगर मुझ को लगता है की यह सांप किसी की आस्तीन से गिर गया होगा !! (of course not yours)
May Allah keep you safe and safe and safe and safe and safe and safe (Aameen)

ok , bigadda , thanks , I was able to view the promo
And this is for you AB..
. I dont know what critics or cynics will say…. but I hope the masses and the people who matter will love you. it is evident , that despite, acting being by now, seeped within you, this role requires that little bit of extra effort… which I, am sure all else will also observe and appreciate.
my love and good wishes aplenty
Dear Amitji,
Lovely seeing the promo, thank you. AURO (‘sometimes also known as Amitabh Bachchan’)is spreading so much happiness around with new monkey dance!
Why, though are you teasing us by saying ‘prudence’ is not allowing you to put up ‘some very exciting visuals of many others ‘doing’ it’? You have aroused our curiosity and now only you are going to enjoy this pleasure yourself in isolation??!!! How MADDENING!!!! Tormenting us so, but it’s your prerogative, so forgiven.
Take care & love you too,
Brenda

Honourable Amitabh H. Bachchan Ji,
Subject: Your Observation Analysis, experience and Opinion OR Message about Smt. Sonia ji Gandhi For a Book of ‘SADAGI’
Request to…….
His Excellency,
Some person, working in the various fields of the society , carry such a personality that it can not be measured in words or reputation. This field may be of Art, Sports, Culture, Social, Political, Economical, Religious or any other .No doubts their works in every fields is the superior. The contribution of those which has impressed the various aspects of the society is not unknown for the people. But the beauty of their journey is yet to come before the people. Here beauty is not merely an earthly vision of womanly grace but the manifestation of divine sublimity in human life & carrying this object ‘Lokmail’ is going to implement an agitation at a large scale & Sonia ji Gandhi is on the top most of it. As a politician her image has not only got the national level but also it has reached to the peak point of international level.
It’s not the matter that as Soniaji has caught the horizon of international reputation & media is running after her for giving more coverage. Her character has been eluminated before this also but it’s not sure that every thing will be covered in it. This possibility, in case of Sonia ji, is also can not be denied.
That’s why putting this motto, ‘The Unfold Sentiments of Smt. Sonia Gandhi’, we are going to publish a historical souvenir. The first edition of this beautiful souvenir will contain no.of copies in English & Hindi & it will be translated in all Indian spoken languages later on. This souvenir actually is not for merely to appreciate her but for to measure her work impartially. We feel that you have proved your metal to be true by your contribution and have conquered the hearts of the people, which is your great asset, Each country has it’s own oranaments i.e., Art, Sports and Culture you are also one of those. We know that you have stived to achieve the international Image. It’s not the matter that Soniaji belongs to which party but it’s imp. that being a lady her contribution for her country which has got international level, is imp. In real politics is nothing but the reflection of socity and for this reflection you have dedicated your whole life. We salute you because by making a weapon to your art you have strived for the justice for the lowest element fo the society. That’s why we have dared politely to ask you to provide an article for the aforesaid souvenir. We also know that now a days you are very busy in your undertakings but on the otherhand its also true that this souvenir cannot reach the consummatim without your help.
You are therefore requested kindly to extend your hands for Co-Operation in this regard as early as possible lastly hope that our request will be honoured as possible as .
Thanking You in anticipation !

Good afternoon my dearest Mr. Bachchan,
Hoping this finds you very well, rested and in good health.
Woke up to an advertisement on the trusty BBC Asian Network radio regarding that interview on PAA, which I am relieved to know will be aired tomorrow morning. I had doubted their competence during the week, when I was told they couldn‘t find details about it; but Sunday morning is the prefect slot to catch optimum listener ship, so alls well that ends well! The presenter showed great enthusiasm in her announcement of the film and in providing the regular overview of the story. To my amusement, much like the wider media, she also pondered the ’burning question’: how DID Abhishek manage carry Mr. Bachchan on his back?!? I guess logical answers do not suffice for certain questions!
Tremendous amusement followed when she played your song from yesteryear ‘Mere angane mein’ from Laawaris I believe - that set the giggles in motion for the day - scandalously hilarious in quite a politically incorrect way!! Not quite the easiest song to sing I imagine, yet you had sung impeccably, tones and ranges and melody. More proof I suppose that whatever you do, you perform to perfection.
This radio station seem to love your voice perhaps this will bode well for the ‘PAA Song’ in the future.
Time is drawing ever closer for the film’s release and I am sure your nerves are beginning to wreak havoc by this stage - if indeed you have time to tend to them at all! I am sure everything will fall into place soon now.
As always the very best of luck as you progress and of course for the preparation of your father’s commemoration too.
Enjoy your day and any time spent relishing the forbidden visuals of Auro’s dance over which the mind boggles! I guess we can permit you this luxury without encroaching on your pleasure - at times I believe ignorance is bliss!!
My love as ever,
Jasmine

Dear Amitji,
Like Satinder rightly remembered, I had one of my very own personal encounters with a snake right on my sitout recently. A relatively small one, but scary all the same. My daughter seemed pretty cool about it - she wanted to take a pic - wanted to know its variety etc., so I had no time to scream and make a nuisance of myself!!! I had to do the decent mommy thing and shoo it off. I guess it was pretty bored of me anyway, so it quitely slithered away!
Could this have been the same snake that visited u too?? Wow! It could have grown during all this time. It could have been my messenger of love. I could have sent a love note with it like the swan in Nala-Damayanti! Ok, maybe not! I got carried away!
I cant help wondering where the snake is now. It would have turned celebrity overnight. It wd be captured and in a zoo/museum, sadly in an enclosure, but with an attractive label that says ” The Snake that met AB.” The other snakes would automatically look quite lack lustre in comparison!
The various complex steps in movie making that lead to the finished product we see on screen made interesting reading. And to think that we issue the verdict for all that hard work! I am a very choosy moviegoer and there are movies that I am happy about when panned. But Paa is one movie that I pray is a huge success. A good movie should receive the appreciation it rightly deserves.
So once more, good luck and prayers for Paa.
Love,
Aishwarya.
sir,
i love your works since childhood (( with some exceptions))
but i think this time you have played a bit younger i mean more childlike thn what it should have been….. i am sorry if you feel hurt @ it..but that’s what i felt @ promos….

:P 
But why I smile ,I also do this sometime but not with snake but with lizard,mosquito etc.Because I have only one time acounter with snake and my elders kill me before I do this.Dont think I m crazy 
:D 
:D
Your daughter wants to take a pic of snake
If I found the same snake which was in AMIT JI room then I take it with me and look after it very well.After all,it came out from AMIT JIs room and what was he doing there,What a hell with him to replace me

Paa video … N…ai…ii….ce……….Sw…ee..ee..t…..but not out of the box idea. It;s like an ad film…..catchy tune…..multiple representational images to depict universality of singular product. In this case, product being Paa.
MidDay is purposely ignoring Paa & backing aamir’s 3 Idiots. Chances are Paa will go quietly into the night whereas 3 Idiots will rock the BO - at least, the first weekend.
You know, you deserve it. Your retaliation against abhijit was first of all, based on an odd misunderstanding. A veteran film star did not realize the difference between a digital camera and a dictaphone when it was placed right under his nose. Where was there any “sting” about an open camera?!! Second of all, even this misunderstanding could have been sorted out civilly. You could have reprimanded, demanded an explanation, anything as a senior man of stature. But NO! You fell prey to the same malaise as journos in general. You misused the power of YOUR pen ie this blog of yours. You brandished it like a tool of power. You sneered. You gloated. You called him a twit. And sadly - never mind your bloggers park - lost the respect of millions of urbane, rational people. At 67, it is superb to be able to execute the monkey dance of a 13 year old. Aamir, in 3 Idiots is playing a 22 year old at 44. BUT Aamir does not relinquish the maturity of the 44 year old that he has evolved into by behaving like a confused, silly collegiate in real life.
Go back and read what you wrote about Abhijit - not nice. He may well be a twit. But it ill behoves you to say it - for what could very well be your mistake. Come on Auro! Say sorry!
Sudhir, bull’s eye as always. And ofcourse AB will appear the odd one out. He looks fabulous in his BB3 avtar. “Look” is perfect, grey coordinates - mindblowing. And there facing him, dirty lumpen, dregs of Indian society. Colors musta worked very hard to collect this ugly lot.
Ms Jha, you are absolutely justified in your well-written treatise on regional/National languages. To know English is a matter of functionality, that is all, not a matter of pride or superiority lekin kya karen….yeh mixed breed toh Shakespeare ke najayaz aulad hain na?!!
Our whole family is crazy about you Amit ji. My biggest dream of life is to meet with you. God or you knows it will convert in reality or not.

In Hindi Film Industry(No BOllywood) there are few actors who can make impossible to Possible,but you are incredible.
I and my entire family eagerly waiting for “Auro” .
I have cancelled my family marriage function as Paa is going to release on 4th December and my cousine’s marriage was on same date and i want to see “FIRST DAY FIRST SHOW”.
Sir,you have already shown your metal in BLACK now i am sure that AURO will rule the billion hearts.
Mr.Kamal Hasan in Hindustani,Aamir in Ghajini did excellent job but now AURO will create history.
God bless you AURO(AMITABH BACHCHAN).
Also eagerly waiting for “RANN”.

Thankyou very much for the dedicated link. I did watch it, but since my knowledge of Hindi is so poor
:( 
:( all I understood is the word “Jaadu”. It’s the thought that counts and I think it’s sweet.

Good morning, Amitji and all my friends of the EF (Well, it’s morning here, anyway). Hope everyone is enjoying their Saturday.
Shankar #43: Those pictures of Amitji and Raja Sir are magnificient. Thanks for sharing. I could not, however, play the video to watch them recording together.
Hello Zainab, Aishwarya, Melwyn, (oh no, now I’ll forget someone!), Vishanlalji, Srinivas, Satinder, Rupam, Sanjith, — okay, I give up– ALL you wonderful friends of mine — love to everyone.
Melwyn: Will gladly perform to Shava shava if you can convince Amitji to dance with me! All of you can join in too — as extras! JUST KIDDING, BABA! Don’t get so mad at me! My attempt at being funny! Friends ke sath thoda hansi mazak to chalta hai na. Archie, no video.
Sharmila: I hope you continue to recover. The malls are waiting for you — hurry!
Anu: your tribute to Kashmira was very touching.
Where are you, Manish Parmar and Vijaya? Blogji is soona soona without you. Please make your appearances quickly!
Everyone, I hope you have a wonderful day/evening.
Love, especially to YOU-KNOW-WHO!
Jasmine

Archana ( bengaluru ), Aishwarya , Zainab , - Thanks much for your lovely wishes as always.
Ramanathan- Rombo too much Sir, as usual great end line as always.
Melwyn - Not tired at all with it, but other reasons caused me not to pursue further, but just glad to be back home..:)

Respected Brother

Today I share a link to couple of webpages that had been created by me at the actual birth centenary of Dr. Harivansh Rai Bachchan..
http://www.angelfire.com/ab/abhayasharma/htmldocs/harivanshrai1.htm
and
http://www.angelfire.com/ab/abhayasharma/htmldocs/Dr_bachchan_links.htm
The links to Amitabh recites Dr. Bachchan do not work.. these were part of my huge website abhayasharma.net which does not work anymore.. and whatever little I could accomodate on angelfire free site is made available there..
May I after a long gap say sincere thanks to some of the fellow EFs who had helped him hold my ground when I was in distress.. When I was in some sort of apprehensions about some vague possibilities for writing whatever I had been writing here..
I know it would be impossible for me to recount everyone.. yet I remember once in a while you too started off the blog with some words that should help me come out of what I hought I was into..
Here I must first say special thanks to Kashmira Di.. My dost did heard me for more than half an hour and helped with the best possible words.. the words that only a true sister could use for his real brother.. are we related then Didi and not mere Dost..
Dr. Aishwarya, Sanjith, Shankar, Sis Rose, Syed Kabeeruddin and Tumpa bon did their bit as many others on the facebook..
And I can not forget the kind of love that was made available to Amrit on his birthday on 16th November.. Archana, Zainab, Sanjith, Jasmine, Aishwarya, Carla, Reeham, Ravi Sir, Shankar, Manoj Kumar OjOj and many many others.. Thanks on behalf of Amrit..
And you all know that I am already 50 year old.. if I have missed the names it is more because of my failing memory.. Yeh yaddaasht se hi to maar khaa gaya hindustaan..
I also tell you that I have created a musical blog for Sir Manoj (Bharat) Kumar and some of you may like the efforts.. I know when everything is available on tube why waste time.. That was my way of showing my affection to the great Cinema personality..

Hi Zainab,
Nice to read your reply….Aarav ke pitaji ke baare mein to unke mummy Papa batate hain ki Aarav unka 10% bhi naughty nahi hai……wo to mahan the apne time pe…..main bhi naughty thi but jyada nahi……i used to have so many friends in school and college, used to enjoy every moment with them…Aah memories..
Love and Regards,
Vandana Bhatt, Dubai, UAE
Amit ji has mentioned about snake in his bathroom, this reminds me the first morning after my marriage when i went to Kenya with my hubby….he used to work there….i was sitting in the living room and suddenly i saw all the maids and gardener standing outside a little far and looking at my cottage and then they were talking loudly, i couldn’t understand what’s happening….i wanted to go out and see, one of the girl stopped me and said, there was a snake outside my window…..i was really scared…..Gardener came and removed it from there..
I cannot forget that in my life…..how are you Sir, i hope your shoulder doesn’t pain now…
Love and Regards,
Vandana Bhatt, Dubai, UAE
Dear Amit ji,
Take care, dance was good..

my best wises with you sir…..
waiting for your reply sir…………
Dear Mr. Amitabh Bachchan,
I am a homemaker and a mother of two.I read an article in The Times of India Hyderabad edition about a boy Chandan Chakravarthy, a scheduled tribe boy ,whose dream, aim and goal was to become a pilot.
It so happened that after stretching himself too far financially ,he could notch-up only 267 flying hours, 17hours more of the mandatory hours required to get a Commercial Pilot’s Licence, but instead of becoming a pilot,he now drives a taxi to support his family.But because he could not meet the monetary requirements and the educational qualifications i.e.10+2 mandatory, he could not become a pilot.
But, the determined boy that he is ,he pursued his education and completed 10+2 and came back with a hope of becoming a pilot. Alas! the DGCA turned him down saying that he had not flown 200hours in the last 5years as, a time span of a few years had elapsed , when he was pursuing his education and lack of monetary support though he had taken a loan of 7.5 lakh rupees.
Therefore ,and sadly instead of being on the clouds, he is biting the dust. Since the cost per 1hr of flying was rs600/hr then , now it is 10000/hr.
Mr. Amitabh Bachchan , do you think it is fair on the part of the DGCA to crumble and crash land a budding pilot’s flight of dreams only on the basis of rules.
In our country where rules are twisted, turned and trampled by the WHO’S WHO of our country , can’t they be a little more humane in fulfilling an youngster’s dream.
Is it justified to ground the flight of a promising youngster ‘Who wants to bask in his own glory” where all the REFLECTED GLORIES OF THE WORLD are just that……………..reflected glories.
Mr. Chandan Chakravarthy needs either a person who puts in a word to the DGCA, on his behalf or help him monetarily to complete the 200hours at an exorbitant price. I am ready to help him in my own small way and can help him by paying for 5/hrs of flying.
Mr Amitabh Bachchan for all i know my letter will not even garner a reply from you.I am not saying this out of sarcasm but this is how the world works people have lip sympathy but not empathy.In your capacity as a celebrity, the least you can do is to reply to my mail and we will discuss about the ways to help this youngster coz. he is not an younster he is indeed an ‘Young-Star!’
Hope to hear from you,
Kalpana Naidu.
i am very excited to watch ur movie paa.
Dear sir,
I know this mail will not be replied because you are such a big star….you are like god.Sir I will not wish you or congrats you coz all the people out here did so….I will definately watch “PAA”.
Sir,I am married for last 2yrs….my parents who stays with my elder brother are in very much mental pain….my father has big amount of outstanding loan which he took for his bussiness,my marriage and my brother’s hotel management studies but now he is ruined.My brother and sister-in-law are treating my parents very badly as the money lenders are coming to their place for money and using slang languages,this hurts the prestige of my brother and sister in law…..I beg to request you if you could help my parents with the money outstanding (which is not a problem for a super star like you), you can send any of your person to see into the matter wheather it is true or fake….I will do all the needfull…..I have a beauty parlour it is 6 months old but it will take too much time for me to repay the loan of my father…My brother will not pay a single penny for my father’s loan….I can’t see my parents in this situation any more you are the only person who can help us….please help us sir….I do not know wheather you read this letter or not….and if even you read I do not know wheather you will help us or not .This is not fake sir you can verify it, by sending any of your person….I stay in Kolkata…..please help sir
Namaskar,
hello auro, i Love you
Warm Greetings to Mr.Bachchan!
Sir this is I my posting on your blog - so naturally I am quite curious to see if I get a revert from you. I am a hotelier by profession and I feel 26/11 should be the day when all Indians should introspect within themselves and realise their role in eliminating the terrorism from their motherland. Stopping should not be associated with revengeful retaliation by exhibiting similar acts of terrorism and doing other unlawful activities. For that our legal judiciary system has to revolutionize and at soonest bring to task those guilty of this unhuman misdeed. As India we also need to channelize collective socio-economic efforts, bridge our regional differences and above all demonstrate high level of unbiased awareness and pride towards national integration. Only then can we think of being a free nation in the true sense. Hope my fellow citizens agree!
Best Regards,
Pranab
Dear Mr.Bachchan,
Further to my last comment on your blog - on a lighter note, I would also like to add that I am a huge movie buff and my personal collection has all of your movies (All originals no pirated copies) which I simply adore! I do not know if this is ever going to be possible but I have a secret desire to direct a movie that is a sequel to the hit Amar-Akbar-Anthony. My imaginative star cast includes the original 03 heroes with their sons (Akshay Khanna-Ranbir Kapoor-Abhishek Bachchan) in the lead roles! Phew!! That would be the day..I wonder if ever this is going to be true. But I do hope that if not me some brilliant director can at least put to use this creative thought!
Awaiting your comments..
Best Regards,
Pranab
Respected Amit Ji,

आदरणीय श्री,
सादर नमस्कार
गत वर्ष २८.०२.०८ का आपका पत्र मिला था .
मेरा सौभाग्य, पूज्य बाबूजी का अपार स्नेह और आशीर्वाद मुझे प्राप्त हुआ और बर्षो बाद आपके पत्र से भी उसी आत्मीयता की अनुभूति हुई . इस वर्ष उनकी १०१ वी जयंती के मौके पर उनके साथ जुडी हुई स्मृतियों को आपके साथ बांटते हुए मुझे बेहद ख़ुशी हो रही है .
१९८२ में मेरे पहले कविता -संग्रह ( प्राणों के साज पर ) की भूमिका उन्होंने लिखी थी . उनके मार्ग दर्शन में गीत-गजलों की मेरी अन्य तीन पुस्तकें ( अंतर्बोध ), (श्रृंखला के खंड) एवं ( अनुभूति दंश ) प्रकाशित हुईं. १९८३ से ९० के बीच उनके साथ लगातार सम्पर्क बना रहा . इस दौरान उन्होंने जो ३८ पत्र मेरे पास लिखे आज देखता हूँ तो पत्रों का यह संग्रह एक किताब की तरह नजर आता है . मेरे जीवन की अमूल्य निधि होने के साथ-साथ इन पत्रों ने इस जीवन की दिशा तय करने में भी निर्णायक भूमिका निभाई . एक मौका था जब १८ फरवरी ०५ को उन पत्रों की कॉपी मैने आदरणीया जया जी को भेट की थी . वे चुनाव प्रचार के दौरान रक्सौल आई थीं .
१९८५ में B.sc.(Hons) के बाद मैं फिल्मो के लिए लिखना चाहता था . फिल्म रायटर्स एशोसियेशन की सदस्यता मिली थी. बी आर चोपड़ा साहब का निमत्रण भी मेरे पास था . ये बातें मैंने बाबूजी को दिल्ली में बताई लेकिन उनकी स्पष्ट राय थी की लेखन को कैरियर न बनाकर मुझे आगे उच्च शिक्छा का लछ्य करना चाहिए . विज्ञान के छेत्र में सफलता प्राप्त करने के बाद साहित्य का प्रयोग फिल्मों के लिए उचित होगा. तब लेखक के रूप में पहचान भी ज्यादा प्रभावशाली होगी .
उनके निर्देश को अपना संकल्प बनाकर मैंने M.Sc.[Physics] में विश्वविद्यालय में प्रथम स्थान प्राप्त किया. Ph.D. की. Universal Equation के रूप में मेरे रिसर्च को अंतरराष्ट्रीय मान्यता प्राप्त हुई. त्रिभुवन विश्वविद्यालय में फिजिक्स के प्राध्यापक के रूप में कार्यरत रहा.लेकिन इस पूरे सफ़र में अपने लेखन को समृद्ध करने की कोशिश में भी जुटा रहा. मैंने कहानियों पर काम किया, अलग-अलग सिचुएशन पर गीत-गजल लिखे. जिस भी एहसास ने दिल की गहराइयों को छुआ उसे कहानियों में, गीत-गजलों में ढालने की लगातार कोशिश करता रहा.
पूज्य बाबूजी की वृहत साहित्य श्रृंखला में उनके इन ३८ पत्रों की कड़ियाँ भी जुड़ें, जनमानस इन अभिव्यक्तियों से भी परिचित हो, इस दृष्टि से इन पत्रों को पुस्तक रूप में प्रकाशित करना आवश्यक लगता है. साथ ही इन पत्रों की मेरे जीवन में भूमिका, हिंदी साहित्य में उनका महत्व, उनमे निहित नए रचनाकारों के लिए सन्देश तथा ऐसे सन्दर्भ भी इस पुस्तक में शामिल होंगे जो उनके व्यक्तित्व के अलग-अलग आयाम को रेखांकित करते हैं. चाहता हूँ इस संग्रह में आपके दो शब्द सम्मिलित हों और फिर इसका लोकार्पण आपके हाथों हो. क्या यह संभव है !
आपके निर्देश के अनुसार इन पत्रों की कॉपी आपके पास भेजूंगा. आप देखेंगे, उन पत्रों में आपका जिक्र आता रहा है जो हमेशा से आपके साथ मेरा एक भावनात्मक सम्बन्ध जोड़ता है.
आदरणीया जया जी को नमस्कार. अभिषेक एवं ऐश्वर्या को शुभकामनायें.
पा की सफलता के लिए शुभकामनाओं के साथ.
सादर आपका..

It is always a pleasure reading your mind and your thoughts as expressed by you in your blog.
But for a moment do you feel somewhere down the line that the freedom India gained from the oppression of a long colonial rule by immense struggle and sacrifice of our adored heroes has really translated into the India they dreamed to build for us?
Do we live in that India?
Have we ever been honest in building on their dreams of a nation that we have inherited by default?
Sometimes it appears although we relish to be in a federal democratic system, the system that we live in is flawed.
Why then people are unable to change a inept government through present election system? Elections are held as a routine, campaigns are dry and boring as they were and on the voting day we press a button of our choice. But do we really have the power to make or break a government?
The present day experience tells us the story that it is a conglameration of a few opportunist men who get together and make the numbers to rule the flock.
Is this the system we feel secure and proud to be in?
Sir,
Hi!
Like millions,i am also a huge fan of yours.
I also admire you for the intentions showed during your trying times.
It was praise worthy and people or your fans should follow that virtue of yours.
But i have a nagging question,” Why you visit so many temples?”

Dear Amitabh and All
I was reading articles, how 26/11 attacks affected the lives of the people. People are saying that religion is responsbile for such attacks. If that is true why such attacks have not taken place earlier. This type of thinking generating supspicion towards the followers of religions. Let us pray together for the integrity of our country, for the time, all of us live happliy with real brotherhood. I am using this blog as a stage to express my feeling as a number people visit this blog.
with love.
मैं आपका बहुत बड़ा फैन हूँ और आपसे मिलना चाहता हूँ क्या आपसे मिलने, प्रतीक्षा में आउँ क्या मिलेंगे?आपके जवाब की प्रतीक्षा में आपका शुभेच्क्षु…
