Lonely hours are the best hours of life
Because
Its the only time
We share our deepest
Secrets with the most
Trusted person in the world
Ourselves …
The completeness of family is the most joyous moment in any life. Today I enjoy that as I step back from the arid but comfortable winds of Dubai into Mumbai and home. Navya - Naveli and Agastya and Shweta at the airport to welcome us in, grown in height and stature and speech and maturity. Abhishek and Aishwarya at work in the studio, but just the thought of us all being together fills the sounds in the house with lively chatter and unadulterated laughter.
The youngsters are computer attached. They function as though that flat slab of machine was a part of their being. Punching, accessing, searching and connecting with the entire world with the knowledge and speed of high end professionals. The Kindle here, the PSP there. A Mac here and the Wi games there. Every corner of the house is just an activity centre of modern gadgetry. Each on his or her machine, each involved with the intensity of sitting on an end of term examination, each happy in their own internet world and each of us in the same room. Together but in our own world of the waves. Igniting all the possible variations that require attention, yet communicating in as normal a manner as possible. The iphone swishing past at the touch of a finger an entire book ordered and delivered electronically through the net, tunes downloaded by the hundreds on to this pocket sized screen in your palm. The Apple TV giving out the latest there is in shows, serials, movies at the punch of a small remote …
Where the hell are we … and what has this world become …
Every bit of information ever created in any part of the world now in super computers and kept in storage never to be deleted or erased. What we write, convey on mobile or net. What we speak and converse in the open air and within our homes, all now by law and by security recorded and kept in storage for ever. Any thing that is in the waves is now never lost or forgotten. Great for posterity, perhaps not so great for secrecy and confidentiality. We may delete a message, we may erase a conversation or detail and it may seem to us that it is gone … but no my dearies .. nothing is lost or removed. It is there in perpetuity. There with the authorities. There in the system. And can be used at any given moment and time, irrespective or who or what position you may be holding.
Enlightening, but frightening too … we shall never be alone .. our words and feelings expressed in voice or its substitute shall be with us in perpetuity ..
I have been attempting to respond back to responses as may have been noticed. The speed of submit if slow, robs the effort of wanting to cover a bigger ground. It is frustrating when that happens for there is a desire to respond and reach out to every one that comes on. But …
And then it just lingers and gets overlooked and many in the EF complain and show despair when they have been close enough to the yellow line and missed it by inches virtually. It is not deliberate you must know, but one of sheer coincidence and circumstance. I try to cover as much but fail. I do the beginning, then the middle and then the end to exhibit a sense of fairness in it all. Take that not as deliberate leaving out for certain individuals. No that would be most wrong and hurtful to think thus. For me all are equal and loved. I cannot divide affection. It shall always remain the same for all.
We meet up now for some work that is being done on animation. A film will be made, the story of which has been finalized and the character that portrays me shall be given my voice. Another avenue, another expansion to the varied tributaries that now stretch and find their place in this competitive world of entertainment. Priyan or Priyadarshan shall be doing the creatives and it will be executed by a company from the South. Times they are a changing. There are more inventive ideas that float along and soon you should be hearing about them. They are all innovative, all exceedingly exciting and more than fruitful for the audience.
So we wait for it to be launched .. and till then .. we wait ..
Be and remain with my love …
Amitabh Bachchan

Dear Amitabh,
I’m a huge admirer of yours and a huge music fanatic. I am currently 19 years old and a huge fan of Hindi music. I have been waiting since I was 6 years old to hear the songs from Gayak (1996) that Big B cassetes had the rights to.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMaYpHrgZ9o a youtube petition
Please Big B, it is my dream to hear these songs in full and I have been praying/hoping for over 13 years for these songs and with no such luck or info!
Please Please listen to my plea and somehow get these songs to my heart just like your movies have filled a huge void in my life with gems like KKKG and Black. Itunes, youtube, online radio, tapes whichever format but please I can’t stand the wait. =[

Amitabhji
Your recent action films, were excellent, khaki, and family, I would very much want to see you featured more action movies, I know that you’re health and age make it difficult for filming action movies, but make the effort you can to the future was embodied in powerful roles more action movies, there are roles Just only you could play them, every language of the request, I ask you to consider play to be another action film in your career with your son.
All your fans in Israel, like any movie you’re doing, like you and your son and wife and of course your wife, I think four of you must play one great movie the whole world will remember forever, Jaya is a great actress of all time, I would very much like to see her playing your side again after K3G.
Love you fans from Israel,
Moses Sapir and my family

Welcome home Amitabhji
Hi sir,
What is the secret behind your youthfulness even at this age.The way you portrayed the character of Auro speaks volumes about your abilities which are far above the so-called western greats leave alone the Indian stars.
Wish you all the best for “Rann” and “Teen Patti”.
Have a great year 2010 above…(pls reply me atleast once Amitji)
Love you always,
Aniket Barma
hello sir,
i m writing to u as my 5 yr old daughter is ur very big fan…….one day she saw ur film ‘bhootnath’ and after watching the movie she cried for 2 hrs and just wanted to talk to u or visit ur place. since dat day its her ritual to talk to u over phone everyday (my husband make ur voice n talk to her on phone). she thinks ur her best friend n tells u everything she does in a day…..v find it very strange that how deeply she is attched to u. she is simply crazy bout ur film bhootnath and now she looks for ur pics in newspapers n tv………….

Dear BigB,
Thank you very much for your reply. I have not thought of it that I will get reply from you. My dream came true. We have seen PAA and there is not comparison with PAA. Auro’s character is awesome not only me my 3year old son (Soham) has in love with that character. He copied Auro’s actions and dancing all the day.
I am a big fan of yours.
Sir,You are the best.
Lots of love and best wishes… Take care..
Your‘s forever,

Amitji,
Great to have come on the blog, where you have just posted, rather then seeing over a 100 members already responded..
The gadgetry is part of the world we live in, mobile phones with net connection, the Wii, the most physically involved games console..its always a health and fitness training too, try to check out those games on it too, you might be able to do your Yoga work outs in front of this console..
Im looking for to the animation movie with priyan..sure it would be fun for kids and adults alike.
All the best always

Hi there,
I was talking to some friends who saw Paa and they are convinced that you are going to sweep all the award ceremonies because of your amazing performance. Hope you win the awards you deserve!!
Also, I have seen the promos of Rann and the movie looks very intense! All of the actors seemed to have given amazing performances, especially Ritesh. He seems to be playing a totally different character then ones he played before. I cant wait for the movie!
And of course I want to share the group that I started called “HELP MEHVEEN MEET AMITABH”, which about 240 people have joined urging you to meet me!! I figured that I have loved you for 5 years out of my 20 years of existence and I need to take measures to meet you and I hope this will do the trick! I am going to post this group (hopefuly as it grows larger and larger) everyday on your blog until you somehow contact me, either via email, webcam, phone, so we can arrange to meet!
So here is the link, I hope you’ll take 2 minutes out of your busy day to look at it!
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=174943739550&ref=ts
I wholeheartedly wish with every fiber of my being that I could meet you. I keep watching interviews with you on bollywood hungama, cnn-ibn, etc. and I can barely stop myself from buying a ticket to Mumbai and camping outside of your house.
I really want to know how you stand being so damn gorgeous. I mean do you know how gorgeous you are? I hope one day that I can see you in person because I know someone who saw you in real life and she said you look better in person and that just flabbergasts me. I mean if you are so gorgeous on screen, then people who see you in person are probably blinded by your gorgeousness! I was watching some of your performances and I literally was dumbfounded by your amazing gorgeousness!
Ok well I hope you click on the link and make my dream come true!!
Hope I get a response!
Love you lots and lots and lots,
Mehveen
USA
ps. I love you and like I said you are simply gorgeous!

In 2009 left many films for cinema, there were many failures and some successes, I’d be happy if you specify the movies you loved except f PAA.

IT SEEMS ALL ARE COMPUTER SAV VY IN BACHCHAN HOUSE. IT LOOKS LIKE A COMPUTER PLAYGROUND!
Dear uncle,
Hope you are in the best of your spirits.I got your response yesterday.
I have one request that please read my letter about you in Khaleej times that was published on Dec 9.But due to some technical problems with the site I cant give you the link now.But please assure me you would read it when I get the link.Its will only take two minutes of your busy schedule.I am trying from the same date to get your attention to it but could not.And today when I got the yellow line,there was no link in my comment.
Anyways its good that you returned back home.It always feels great to be in ones own country……………But now you would be busy again and therefore fewer replies will come by the way…….
But no worries……….you are there with us daily irrespective of whether you reply or not.
I feel there in a binding force between us that attracts us towards each other.I say this because just now while watching TV,I thought of you and felt that you may have posted something early today.And the feeling was true…..
Congrats Mr.Bachchan you punched in a PM again.We want more of those
Will get back to you after a while
Love………
Hello Mr B,
glad back home safe and sound.. Thought I’d make another comment and see if I get a response from you (”,)
I’ve just started to read your bloggs and your writing is very eloquent!
Hope all is well I will leave more comments later as now I need to get back to studying as I have a law exam on wed.
Take care!

Dear Amit Jee,
Welcome back home! Read your reply about your maternal links with Pakistan. I am keenly waiting for your next release TEEN PATTI. It would be great to watch you with Ben Kingsley!
I keenly feel from my heart where you said:
“I have been attempting to respond back to responses as may have been noticed. The speed of submit if slow, robs the effort of wanting to cover a bigger ground. It is frustrating when that happens for there is a desire to respond and reach out to every one that comes on. But … ”
I can fully realize that how bust your schedule must be and despite of your engagements and professional commitments you never forget to value your extended family. I have a desire to meet all of you!
Wishing you the best…with love,
Maqsood
Dear Amitji

I read somewhere you are promoting AMAN KI ASHA: initiative from The times of india and JUNG (from Pakistan). I am not sure if it is true but coming to any conclusion please go through the link provided below: http://www.dawn.com/wps/wcm/connect/dawn-content-library/dawn/news/world/04-south-asia-tense-qs-05
Its a article posted on JUNG’s website dated:3rd January while the AMAN Ki ASHA project is going on in India. Again it is showing hatred against India. I can not understand why your involvement into this project. Even some vested interest is using your name that u are promoting this projects.
As a true fan i am sharing information with you.
Dear Amitji,
It is such a honor to be writing to you. Know you frequent Dubai. Would love to meet you sometime and invite you on board MEVEG - Middle East Veg Group - where we seek to promote increased consumption of vegetables, fruits, nuts and grains for the health of UAE and its people.
We somehow in the rat race seem to grab and go in terms of food with no awareness. Our humble attempt is to draw attention to this aspect. Your reach is far and wide and this non-profit focus group and volunteers will enable with your support - get the message across.
Awaiting you reply eagerly,
Kind Regards

Dearest Mr. Bachchan,
So happy to know that you have made it back home safely.
Wishing you all the best that life has to offer, today and everyday.
Sending you my most sincere, warm affection… Valorie
Our best wishes are always with you.
All the times.
Whether alone or with many.
God bless.
Dearest Mr Bachchan,
I would love to share this beautiful song and one of my Favourites with you. Please click the link below…
I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they turn your hope apart
As they turn your dreams to shame
And still I dream he’d come to me
That we would live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So different from the hell I’m living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed…

Hello Dearest Amitabh SIr,
It really feels very happy when ur loved ones are around….Its nice that after feeling somewhat lonely and the feeling of nothingness here in Dubai.. and when u r back u get such a warm welcome from ur loved ones..it just an energizer to get set and go…
Yes technology plays a great role in todays world…its for genuene reasons many families part and stay far in different locations of the world,as even we do..but thanks to the great technology and gizmos we have..we can speak with our family,see them,we stay so connected and so very near..and thus Thanks to the technology….
All the best for your new endeavour
and haan..one more thing Amit Ji,. whenever you have some time We would like to know your experience of composing and singing the title song of “BAABUL”. Such a Poignant number it is. And in your voice it is so heart touching that, one cannot resisit tears to flow from his eyes…such a beautiful song and so very well sung..
Amidst of the fun and entertainment, the most touching and sensitive ritual of Hindu weddings is the “Bidaai” part…where the Bride bids farewell to her parents and goes to her husband’s house in a hope to start a new and peaceful life. Beti ki bidaai mein maa to ro leti hai lekin BAABUL ka kya? Daughters are close to father, I am a daughter and can very well understand the state of mind and heart of the father in his daughters marriage. Unke dil ka haal Jaise Kale,ghane baadal ghir aaye ho,jo barasane ko vyakul hai….agar barasne ka mauka mile to na jaane kitna barsenge…
May every daughter gets a BAABUL like the one in the movie..
luv u always

Dear Mr. Bachchan,
To write to us everyday , it is like a big yellow line for everyone !
If I comment in this blog it is the reply to your “yellow line” of today !
Thank you for the “big and small yellow strip” !
Something new this time, animation , interesting !
“So we wait for it to be launched .. and till then .. we wait ..”
Yes Mr. Bachchan, we wait and we are sure will be an other great job of yours !
Good luck and keep my fingers cross always for you !
Love , love and more love,
e.t.
my sweet Amitabh..
good evening my dear…
i am happy to read that coming back home was a happy event for you and the family…and you are now with the family..and with your lovely grandchildren….
how are they?i can fill your happiness talking about them..how they grow..how they act ..how they matured…they grow up fast…you think that as if it was yesterday that you got them as a lil gift from God and now …they have grown so much….time flies…..
you put the things as they are…where the hell are we and where are we heading???who knows….we dont..but by the looks of it its going to involve alot of technology….but when the children enjoy their time with all that technology its o.k but when they use it for bad things …there is the problem..and there is nothing that we can do about it….becouse they can hide every thing they do from us..its very hard for us to see what they are doing….and if you think that they cant hide what they do…i think you are wrong…they can….i heard about it many times….
lets hope that God will protect them …..
my dearst Amitabh…
i thank you soooo much for the yellow lines …i know that you love us all and that you want to give us all the ‘gold’ from you…i was lucky to get the yellow line many times and hope and wish to get many many many more of them from you ..there were many times that i didnt get the yeloow line but i never give up and i get it alot..thank God and YOU….you make me so happy with your yellow lines..with only few words you can make me fill on top of the world and i belive that many fill that way too….
i realy hope and wish that i will get many many many more yellow lines from you again and again…you make me fill sooooo good..thanks…
happy that you had a good day at work….
yes we all wait for the next hit from you..
may it be a huge success….
i will remain with you and your love for ever,….
will allways be yours..
have fun my dear with the family…
have a wonderfull evening my dearst..
yours for ever..
anat magen here in israel..
It is so exhilarating to be among your immediate family. The absence makes the heart grow fonder. Small children are so innocent and full of unadulterated love . You seem to be very attached to Aghastya and Navya. They are the youngest members in Bachchan Parivar and getting all love and affection from the elders,particularly Nana and Nani.
My best wishes to Agastya and Navya for 2010. May the Almighty shower His choicest blessings upon the kids.
Happy New Year to Shweta and her husband Mr Nanda.
In fact this is the first get -together for the Bachchan Parivar in New Year.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
Dear Sir,
Just back watching 3 IDIOTS today.
What a FANTABULOUS movie!!
U should try working with Raju Hirani & Aamir someday.
Love & Regards,

Dear Sir,
WELCOME BACK!!!
And enjoy the FUN of having the whole FAMILY together!
No other joy in the world matches this!
Kids & gadgets go hand-in-hand today!
Its really a wonder how they master everything so quick!!!
But this thing about all information being stored by the authorities is really very SCARY!!!!!!!!! Is it really true?????????? Do they have any idea about the OLUME & ENORMITY of the task????
Anyways, what I personally am really interested in is that yellow-band below my reply…. YES! That is - YOUR reply to MY reply!!!!!

Dear Kind, Mr. Bachchan..
Thank you for what you said in this post. It was good to hear that you don’t skip people for any particular reason.
After my brazen “Christmas Wish” wasn’t granted, and then my comments were passed over…every day…I was really beginning to think that my poems had offended you somehow.
I couldn’t imagine that this might be true…but still.
Just in case you might have seen my comments/poems as shallow or vapid…let me assure you that I know they are.
I am well aware of my intellectual limitations…but I try to do the best with what I have to work with here…ha ha.
My comments and poems were written and sent to you with sincere love and affection and devotion. Hope you have accepted them with the same. Hope someday that you will find the time to tell me. Ever so happy to read that you cannot divide your affection as that would most certainly be ‘hurtful’. I shall always remain ‘with your love’…and I shall always return it to you ten-fold…and occasionally, I shall make it rhyme. Forever your poet, Valorie Adams
Amitji, your joy at being home and especially with Navya Naveli and Agastya is so palpable and endearing! I am so happy for you and for your family. This time is so precious, and I am glad you are enjoying it. I am trying to imagine the scene as you have described it, very vividly, I must say. So many wonderful, beautiful, smart people — all in one space.
Yes, children at this age grow so fast that one can tell the difference even in a few months. Quite fascinating, this process of growing up. Even when it happens right in front of your eyes, literally (when our children are living with us), we don’t see it. You look back and think of them as newborns, infants, toddlers, children, teenagers, young adults, adults — and you marvel.
I share your amazement at technology, its speed and all-pervasiveness, the sacrifice in privacy and confidentiality. Very well-written words.
Love your quote at the bginning. Good luck with your new animation venture.
We totally understand your inability to respond to everybody, there are so many of us and just one you, and as you say, it is a slow process. We appreciate your efforts to connect with as many as you can. Thank you.
My love and regards, always,
Jasmine
Hi Sir,
I after long long time(2 months) visited your blog.I am really feeling the guilt for myself.
Your words have magic.Ever i read its give me feeling that I am lucky to be born in erra in when AMITABH BACHAN lives.
I am going through most of ur blogs now and each word i read it gives me life ,energy
I ever aspire to be as good writer as you are…
Thanks for everything you gave to us..
Namaskaar Amitji,
To be with onseself is to be with God.
To enjoy being with oneself is to enjoy the presence of God.
That in itself makes company more enjoyable when we do have the privilege.
Nayaa varsh shubh-laabh ho!
Love,
Leela
Sir,
I deeply appreciate your effort to respond to all the posts given your time constraints. Just goes to show how much our presence is valued by you, which is the biggest honor for fans like us. Thank you Sir!!
Indeed the present generation is miles ahead of others. Being a software professional myself, I see that there is a lot to learn from the kids who haven’t even started going to school!! They are so well informed about the funtioning of the computer…good enought to teach us a thing or too…

Hi Amitji,
A very Happy 2010 to you and all the EF.
I am home after our trip to Chennai, Tirupati, Bengaluru, Mysore. We stayed well, just a long journey back via Doha yesterday. You are home as well now.
Kavin’s hair was shaved off on 25th Dec, I wish I could show you and everyone in the EF before and after photos, but it is not possible yet.
Love and regards to my EF firends Manish P, Archana, Vandana, Srinivas, Jasmine J, Pratik R, Devkishin and Shankar.

***SMITA @ # 48***
Dearest Smita,
May I ask you a question? You always address Mr. Bachchan as ‘Priya Sakhaa’…What does that mean? I think the word
‘Priya’ must mean ‘Dear’ or ‘Beloved’, is that correct? Can’t find the word ‘Sakhaa’ in any of my Hindi/English dictionaries…and I have THREE! Please enlighten me, if you have a moment. I would really appreciate it!
With much affection, Valorie
dear amitji,
greetings, u have put it very aptly, that one’s most trusted person especially in loneliness is one’s own self, ur inner voice is the one that guides u and remains the most loyal , come whatever may it never deserts u, anyways we r living in this robotic age , hence the over dependence on technolgy which is so endearing and challenges our minds to keep abreast with it or get left out, the younger lot especially the kids of today r gizmo bred, they know how to manipulate technogy to their advantage, be it computers or mobiles, they r adept it by default, as u rightly point out that due to this onslaught of technology, one’s privacy(secrecy) is not a secret anymore, once a karmayogi will always remain so and that is what u r, ur love for us, the EF and our feelings for u r indispensable, please enjoy the moments of happiness with ur family,
regds,
ps: i request u and the EF to pray for the good health of my father who is suffering from a chronic kidney disease, coincidentally he is very similar to u sir in his approach to life
Dear Amitji,
I cannot believe that your responses yesterday stopped at #71 and I was #72!!
OMG! What ill-luck I have! And so early in the year, too!
Then I noticed that your responses continued later on down the page.
That makes me so very sad.
I hope to get a reply from you very soon.
Love,

Hi Ab,
How Are you? How was your trip to Dubai?
You Take Care - Darshan
Please consider making a full length comedy film under the banner of ABCL LTD.
Lately you have been working in films surcharged with emotion and drama. For a change why not plan a full length comedy which will liven up the atmosphere all round. With all the varied experince under your belt it should not be difficult for you to make a comedy which will prove to be a resounding success at the box office.
Good luck
amitabh how are you today your feelings and thoughts are felt vicariously i think we all are puzzled by the intracacies of life as it unfolds for each and everyone of us its amazing awesome forbidding and unbelievable - challenging -but oh so alluring and elusive —- as a delicate butterfly –that joyfully –flutters around from tree to tree flower to flower taking all of natures beauty in — and thats what we must also adhere to do balance of hard work and hard play is what will bring ultimate satisfaction for all — thanks for — explaining your hardship in responding to all of us its very understandable -its so good of you to read each and every response thats so good to know and reassuring that our words are not just dismissed we all need acknowlegement — have a great day talk to you soon — dont worry about gold line — i totally understand — bye for now ——– love jackie ——
Dear Amitji,
To admire self, hear the voice from within is to thank and speak to God in the silence of gratitude. Home is the best place to be in. Glad you are in the midst of family-all together-small,tall, elders et all to chatter softly , loudly yet affectionately.
Yes tomorrows inventors are the children of today. Quick in thinking, reacting, doing, mending, implementing. Thats how they are. Adley tries a few at home here.
And as far as yellow line goes, for me your writing everyday is a big yellow line by itself and for which I am always so happy and have nothing more to demand from you. Anything more would make me sound expecting too much in return. I am more than contend, fully knowing that you do think of me and everyone every breath and every thought.
Best wishes for the new launch. I was thinking you were so close in dubai and by not meeting you did I make a blunder. Well my heart says no. since you were always in there all the while.
Love
Mario

Welcome back home. It is with great pleasure to read your post today. Firstly I detest the younger generations addiction to computer games, to entertainment on the internet and to technological isolation. Yes, they are occupied and kept consumed in their little world but the personal interaction and touch is missed. It’s lost to a world where they are naive and gullible.
My nephews are never without their PSP’s or any other computer games console and it breaks my heart that in my day we played out in the garden or in a field. Perhaps a game of cricket or making go-karts. Yes, perhaps this is an old fashion view since we all need to embrace the changing times. Children are no longer safe playing outdoors and for the sake of their security we lock them up at home.
I also welcome your message regarding comments made. Yes, you can’t acknowledge them all, as much as you’d like however everyone here is equal and loved. It’s simply not possible to respond to all comments.
Welcome back home also Nareshbhai Bhatt .. I hope the head shaving ceremony went well for Kavin.

I have very little time, for I’ve been stuck in the world of India in 1969 when, as they said, TV was almost nonexistent there. I’ve seen the first 3 of 7 parts in one showing of Louis Malle’s fascinating ‘Phantom India’
It’s good to hear that you are back home with your family, especially the grandchildren.
I can understand the frustration of not being able to reply fast enough. Yo have been so generous with your time. It is too bad the technology cannot be instant.
I must go now because the next pat of the documentary is about to begin.
Love,

My dearest Mr. Bachchan,
As I was involved in my readings in history and going through the various stages of the national movement I resort to my phone, which is one of the modern gadgetries that have come to be an essential part of our lives, to check for your new post…
And finding it I directly tear myself away from intense and various historical incidents, leave all in hand and rush to another of the modern tools to connect to you..
Welcome back to sweet home, and iam glad that you are cherishing a warm and endearing atmosphere amongst your family members and enjoying the presence of your delightful grandchildren..
For the last couple of days and with the advent of the new year that completes the first decade of this millennium, there have been talks every where about the unprecedented development in the realm of technology and on the various devices and tools which, over a short span of time, have made their presence so intensely in our lives.
It indeed takes us in its fascinating world, and I believe that one of its virtues is that it has allowed me this communication with you know whom…who had existed for me only in an exotic time and place.
The world has become open for one and for all, to absorb from it what ever he can get of knowledge and other entertaining materials..
And of recently iam happy at the prospect of finding numerous and mush needed online resources which will help me with my studies…
But looking from another side, it has also affected our social life. With the presence of all these modern and technological gadgetries we become all isolated in our own worlds, we are there together…and not really together, which is certainly frustrating who needs to feel our presence amongst them…like everything else, it is a double faced coined…
It was delightful reading your various replies to many lucky FmXt…
And of course your effort to satisfy your readers and commentators is very much appreciated…never mind being unable to respond to all. Of course it is understandable how tremendous a task it is…
Your new project with animations sounds really to be an interesting and exciting one. It will be really amazing to watch a movie with animation to which you lend your voice…all best of luck, and iam waiting with curiosity an interest to know about the other projects to happen soon…
Enjoy your time with your loved and close ones..
And all best my best wishes for you…
Now will get back to those who have been persistent, determined to fight for their rights with clear vision of what is really their most important and common goal…
And you never cease to be in my thoughts..
I will remain with you… because you are always here and that’s most satisfying.
My love to you…and even more,
Rasha Zayed,

Dear AmitJi,
Just while I started writing to you I saw dear Valorie’s comment at no. 50 & feel that i should answer her question since i read it………..so with your kind permission,
“Valorie, “Sakha” is a beautiful word in hindi meaning male friend the female one being “Sakhi”………..if you ever watch a very good, sensitive movie of AmitJi, “Bemisaal” you would find AmitJi addressing the lady of the film as “Sakhi”………I watched it many years back & that was when i first came to know of the terms but it became such craze among my friends that i still remember one of my friend while sending invitation for his sister’s wedding to us addressed his female batch mates as “Sakhi” and male batch mates as “Sakha”!………..Thanks to you for ur question I again remembered something good……….I immensely liked all the three leads in Bemisaal, except felt very bad when AmitJi played villain to the character of Aruna Irani for the sake of his friendship to Vinod Mehra. ”
AmitJi, thanks for the beautiful poetry…….short, poignant & honest:) I would write it down now in my diary.
I often wonder seeing today’s kid’s whether too much of technology is in a way harming them, my sister’s kid also remains so busy with gadgetry’s that he has at times no time even for his parents, always remaining in his own little world………..isn’t it scary? I don’t know, just thinking loud. When we were children we used to put so much stress in playing with other kids, reading story books, things were not unlimited as it is today so there was a thrill in getting our coveted one doll or a storybook once in a week………..there was a happiness in fulfillment of our unspoken wishes at times cause we knew our parents won’t be able to afford much.
But now with double income parents, like recently one of my friend was telling me that her son while getting presents during his birthday party complained why one is a smaller one………..i mean not up to the mark………..my friend was telling me that her son doesn’t attach much value to these presents…….it’s kind of “taken for granted”!
And then post this confusion in mind I started laughing while I read that many of dear FmXt is unhappy that they are left out from your response…………Well I also belong to that unlucky group:)………….and while this morning I logged in and saw “The Beginning” I thought that they were the only one and my comment at no.42 is missed by a mere margin of 12…………so I sent a mail to my husband crying that had i taken break from work little early I would have got your response.
Now saw that there was “beginning, middle & the end” and well my dear Saturn ruled zodiac sign again remained unfortunate not to fall in either category
Wishing you success in all your endeavors!
Thanks & Regards,
Manashi

Please show some maturity, if nothing else. No one forces you to watch AB and family films. Your outburst is reflective on your own insecurity or your failure in life.

I wish God gives you some basic sense before you return on this blog next time.

HI,
MY FATHER SAYS THAT WHEN HE WAS YOUNG….THERE WERE NO TV,MULTIPLEXES,EASY TRANSPORTATION,COMPUTER,ETC……. BUT, THEY NEVER FELT BORED….. THE ONLY SOURCE OF ENTERTAINMENT THEN WAS THE RADIO…
HERE IS 2010…. THE ERA OF TECHNOLOGY AND COMMUNICATION….. I TOO CAN NEVER IMAGINE MYSELF WITHOUT PHONE, MY LAPTOP, WIFI,ETC…. THEY HAVE BECOME OUR INTEGRAL PART OF LIFE…. BUT I ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT …THE BEST THING IN THIS WORLD IS TO BE HAPPILY WITH THE FAMILY IN GOOD HEALTH AND POSITIVITY…
Hello mr. Amit!!!
Good luck!I hope and wait for your answer!
Thank you! Please!>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

amitabh —– life is so short and fleeting — this is not a new observation but –just wanted to say you are one person who has acheived great balance in life -you never let your tremendous success go to your head -you are very humble - -you didnt turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with your intense exciting life –you are so centered on learning from even the lowliest of creatures on this earth - im amazed at your simplicity — and wonderment– like the poets percy bysshe shelley, yeats,lord byron -they were very pensive– they aloud the sadness to pervade their emotions - you drink in the sweet nectar of life -and we are learning from you are a great teacher philosopher and philanthropist -excuse any errors — tusi great ho— you deserve gods great blessings– –jackie
Amitji,
Whar a wonderful feeling to be back home!!! In warm Mumbia weather, we are freezing here with 2to4 degree F, temps.. with beautiful sun shining, with clear skies and with snow on the ground seems like nature has planted diamonds on the surface of the earth.. its a beautiful sight but too cold to step out, so here I am sitting at the computer with the world on my finger tips.
Agreed tecnology has taken over young and old’s life; well
The number one benefit of information technology is that it empowers people to do what they want to do. It lets people be creative. It lets people be productive. It lets people learn things they didn’t think they could learn before, and so in a sense it is all about potential.
Technology has really made a big differences in how people live and work.
Here with a click we feel connected to you, this won’t have been possible 15 yrs ago or so!!
Well enjoy your family and grandkids!!!
Love and Peace
Bena
ni!!….
I love you!
Amitji,
Every morning reading your page, which is my homepage, gives a sense of motivation and boosts the morale of myself.
My son OM who shares the same birthdate, after my well planned family planning..heheh…I was also secessful to make him left handed…he is 6 years old.
Sitting in AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND,I feel as if I am in India and am blessed to be in your company.
Hope to see you sometime in New Zealand. I understand that you have never been in here, the most beautiful place on earth…please come ana my hospitalitiy will be one in BIllion.
Reply if you can, or I assume that you read my post, but you are busy keeping everybody happy and blessed.

love you dear sunshine,enjoy the family reunion.wish you good luck with your new venture.
hope my comments do not disappear today, as it did yesterday.
good luck,good rest ,good sleep.
love you always.pradipta.
Dear Amitji,
How are you- you described your home- the electronics media/ gadgets all over- something that probably is happening in my home also- since we got the WII, it is a part of “routine life”- it is good to have it, but also takes away some closeness- and ofcourse, Nintendo/ computer/ TV - Oh- it is all we talk/ speak except when we sleep or eat.
I am honored to have that yellow line- and not to take away all your efforts- we do understand time constraints/ and your efforts to be fair to the entire bloggers and not the first responders.
Glad that Navya and Agastya are home to keep you the company - and ofcourse, ABjr/ Aish are there too.
will check out Amarsinghji’s bog soon.
love and more….
Ashesh
Lonely heart waiting for an answer!…

Mr. B,
You keep cajoling those who have not received ur sunbeam but now I dont believe it think u r doing it on purpose, am very upset this time ’cause I was expecting some sort of reciprocation from u at least if not other times on a New year but u disappointed me ; if u read this please respond and dont spoil this exquisite frienship we share with u.Loveand regards
Mr. B would u like it if u wished someone and they did not respond?Sorry if I am a bit abrupt.
Welcome back Amit ji!! Hope you had a nice time in Dubai..its time for you to sit back and enjoy with your family sp ur grand children. i understand and appreciate that you are pressed for time but please do acknowledge my post..u share ur day, ur feelings, emotions with us and make all of us feel very special and part of your life..Thanks for writing in every day..

dear amitji, that yellow line is very exciting for us in the EF to get. I have received it 2 or 3 times and cherish that when I get it. Paa was one of the best movies I have seen this year. your performance, abishek and vidya’s were excellent. I hope this movie wins many awards. Glad that you are back home from dubai……as the saying goes……there is no place like home. I hope you get time to relax and enjoy the smell of indian masala in the kitchen. Take care and hope to see the famous yellow line sometimes soon. sincerely, dr sunir kumar from pittsburgh

Dear Mr Bachchan,
You know a soul-mate when you see one.
Is it one soul shared by two people?
Is one person the soul of the other?
Are these souls from the past?
You know a soul-mate when you see one.
Love always for you from Bansari.
My warm wishes to you Amitji,
Amitji i have a very small request, i did mention it earlier in your blog a few days ago. i want to send you a sketch of yours which i have made with utmost love for you. i somehow want to send it to you via mail or any medium. if it reaches you this would be my biggest new year gift ever! i don’t if i could ever see you face to face but you accepting my drawing will mean a lot to me! Please do this favour Amitji, my mail i.d. is “b.srinivasan@rediffmail.com”
your humble fan: b.srinivasan
Dear Auro,

Dearest Amit ji,

Good to see the Yellow Line back…
Luv n respects

The only person who completely supports you, shares your deepest desires, who is always standing faithfully by your side, is you. Empower yourself. Technology is frightening, how easily someone can get information about you without you even knowing. But it is also a marvel. Why, without computers or Internet, this blog wouldn’t even exist, we would never get to interact with you! But their is a limit to everything. As a someone who I can’t remember once said, ” Too much of a good thing is… too much of a good thing.” Two positives equals a negative. Take some time away from your gadgets people, and go outside and smell the air, read a book, plant a tree. Nature has been our entertainment forever, and it still can be now, only if you let it.
Waiting in anticipation for the coveted yellow line!
” The sun, with all those plants revolving around it and dependent upon it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as if it had nothing else in the universe to do.” - Galileo Galilei
My love forever,

love u sir…god bless
Dearest Amit ji,
Namaskar!!!
These days kids are smart and most of them are tech savvy. Kindle is indeed a great invention and may replace books, but all comes with a price to pay.
Its nice to read that you had your grandchildren pick you up at the airport. Its always nice to see some family when you come back from a long journey.
Please do not worry to respond all messages since your writing the blog in itself is a great treat for all of us your fans. We are happy to read your reply and understand you fall short of time and have a busy schedule.
Love you…
Dearest Amitji,
Glad to have u back home. Obviously even you would be thrilled to have your grandchildren around. How was their new year in Bangkok?
The first few lines of today’s post are simply superb!!!
Its 2.25am, i have just returned from a show of ‘3 idiots’. All i can say that Indian cinema is ready to take on the world. First ‘Wake up Sid’, then ‘PAA’ and now ‘3 idiots’.I think you haven’t seen the movie as yet. I hope you see it soon. Even your grandchildren will like it. A movie for all ages.
I totally understand the technical problems arising when you reply to the comments!!! Sometimes even when i open the comments page the no. of comments, differs from the actual no. of comments that have been posted. Then after a while it gets updated automatically. This continues till your next post because even the comments don’t seem to stop. I guess some of the members of EF also face this problem.
Excited to hear more about your animation project!!
Good night sir,
Lots of love,
Pratik
Dear Mr Bachchan,
When you write an early post chances are I will be able to glance through and write a one line coment before going to sleep. A lot of times I want to write to you but either the lap top is not available or there is a queue for it or I am surrounded by people and noise or am working. I feel very anxious about not being able to communicate with friends and loved ones. I feel teary and anxious. I like to read your posts. This blog is my manzil.
Regards and loads of love,
Krishna

Dearest Mr. Bachchan,
Just feel an overwhelming urge to tell you how much I appreciate you for creating this wonderful Blogji and for allowing me to be a part of it. Your home is filled with the wonderful sound of your Grandchildren running around with their electronic toys and all…mine is filled with the loving
voices of my beloved FmXt…I thank you from the bottom of my heart, Sir.
***ANAT MAGAN @ # 90***
Oh my gosh, Anat…you are the sweetest, most precious person ever…Thank you for your kind thoughts and words to me. My heart wants to speak to you in Hebrew so that you can completely feel my sincerity, but alas, the only words I know limit me…’Shalom’…’L'Chaim’…’Shabbat’…’Menora’…
‘Challah’…’Exodus’…no, wait…that was a movie…
ANYway…translate this into Hebrew and then say it to yourself for me: ” I…LOVE…YOU…ANAT…MAGEN!”
With returning home my dear Amitji..! Really it is such joyful moment when you see your relatives, of children, the grandson and the granddaughter. It so is remarkable..! I am sincerely glad what at you such magnificent family, my dear.. You are happy, I happy too, your joy is also my joy.. Bless God you and your family.. I love all of you..
I am absolutely agree with you, Amitji on that question that we not one in this world.. Technical progress moves forward inevitably, the life goes forward.. Really surprising and mysterious world.. )
My dear.. I know your affection and love to FmXt is how much strong and never i not could admit thoughts that you give to whom or preference on a blog, giving answers to comments.. It is difficultly, to give a yellow line to all .. Many the different reasons. But I also understand participants FmXt which very much wish to receive your answer.. For the majority it is dream.. I am about those who with us here not so long ago.. Many all heart wish and dream of it.. But my affection and love to you does not depend from that, you have given a yellow line or not ) I remain with you in any situation, you always in my heart already is a lot of years and will be in it always. You know, how I treat of you, my dear…
All my love to you.
Dearest., you work in animated film..? It is rather interesting work.. Your talent is unique., you the unsurpassed professional of transformations, you can inhale a life in any character, be it a feature film or animated.. True that I do not see equal to you. You really unique and great actor.! You the best.! Besides I know you as the warm and kind person.. All my liking and fidelity to you…
Have a rest, my dearest one.. Sweet to you of dreams and good night in a circle of your remarkable family.. My prayers and huge love with you always and in all.. Yours devoted and loving Lyudmila..
Dear Amitji,

But I do hope that every word and deed within the privacy of our homes is not really recorded. If so, I really pity the person who ever had to view the playback of scenes from my domestic life.
Just this evening, for instance, would be a horrendous melange of me furiously doing a blitz of housework, swearing furiously when I had to change the hoover bag for example. Interspersed with me taking ‘kitty breaks’ where I stop to pet and sweet talk the cats.. how deeply embarassing would it be to replay those endless “who’s a gorgeous cat then… no, really, you ums the most gorgiss cat in the ooooniverse” routines that one is prone to recite when gazing at one’s beloved feline.
I really hope all THAT is not preserved for posterity
Glad you are so happy to be back amid all the family activity with Shweta and the grandies, which always makes you sound extra cheerful.
And already the first New in the Year… the animation venture is undoubtedly expanding your creative reach, and you clearly have much more excitement to unleash on us at 2010 goes by.
With all my love, Daisy

Hello Bachchan Saheb,
Y’Day watched Paa..good movie..specially u..it’s name must be Auro..
U were on holiday so gave some reply to few comments…thts gr8 but I just missed as dint chk ur yday blog :(..
Anyways..Welcome Back to India..Enjoy..
Keep inspiring Sir! Wish you a very happy new year!
Dear Sir,
You have given a very nice glimpse of the dark side of Technology …..!
I am scared to read it…. there won’t be any privacy for any one in the world after some years… and each move in our lives shall be fully governed and controlled by technology …. then finding a place where one could be alone in peace in true sense will be impossible. …..!
Then …..there would be places coming up with very very high expensinve rents….. who would claim that please come and stay with us …. with peace …. where is no TV, PC, Mobiles or any electronic gadget would disturb you….! one shall pay in cash…no credit cards…..! no ATM would be nearby ….! Khana Chulhe par banega……! One would not get any e-mail…only chiththi aayi hai aayi hai ….. hi gaya jayega …..!
I can right now feel the peace at such a place….. called heaven ….!
Regards
The time is not far offf…….!

Dearest AB Sir,
It has been a travelling with you since so many months through the site…we move with you…share with you and live with you. This would not have been possible without the net and advanced technology…Nice you are back in India…I am waiting for Abhishekh do a thriller…a suspense movie…with a sudden end…. hope the wait is not for long…
Regards
Diljit
Smita 48 - yes I agree with you absolutely! I am utterly overjoyed when I get a golden line of course, but always feel very sad when people complain bitterly about being passed over… it is so impossible for Mr Bachchan to reply to everyone … I do hope people take notice of his kind explanation today… I am forever grateful to know that he reads all our comments… which seems miraculous to me given his work burdens.
With love from Daisy
Namaskaar Amitji,
‘ Literally inches’ , you said.
Literally centimetres aould be more precise…Hahahahah!
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hello,
wishing you a very Happy New Year, its good to have you back in Mumbai.
I was just visiting chokhi dani the other day & I saw a puppet show. It was ok, but when I walked back I was wondering when did I see one before this - I think in school some 20 years ago.
I had a suggestion, can we through any of your films or through anyone get the attention of the crowd to these dying cultures cos when it gets done via the film industry the visibility is surely a zillion times more
Eg Aamir visiting chanderi, today people know saree’s are being made there - I’m not saying its a fcae revealed but next time when I see someone buying a saree I know something like chanderi exists.
Please let me know what you think
Regards

Dear Amitji,
It was a joy to see your post and to know you’ve arrived back safe and sound to a warm welcome by your beloved daughter and grandchildren.
Loved the words you wrote at the top, so deeply moving and poignant.
It was very kind of you to have responded to so many including me, Appreciate its slowness of speed to submit causes a hindrance when you want to cover a vast number of responses and fall short. But you are here for us everyday no matter how tired or late it is and that is PRICELESS!! Please accept our deep gratitude and appreciation for this.
Your new animation film sounds most intriguing and exciting. Good luck with the launch.
Hoping you have a long restful night and may tomorrow of the New Year be the start to beautiful beginnings.
With love & prayers,
Brenda
Hamare Amithji Dost Parnam,
Lonely moments indeed, allow us to capture our real inner self. Being bedridden, draws numerous hours of loneliness and thoughts, both good and bad ones, but it is a phrase, we enter it, ponder over, and soon depart leaving many ideas and secrets behind…
Thank you for your reply, magically it came in my dream last night, and then this morning there you were.. So strange.. but true. .Yes getting stronger, but very slowly, am still weak physically and very much bedridden, at times it feels rather scary… Will I be able to walk again..time will tell… Thank God we have a mental side..lol…
So glad to hear you so happy, with the family..Makes you so complete and always brings the best of moods in you that we thrive on.. Nothing like a house full of our loved ones..totally amazing.. These sort of things we take so much for granted whilst the family network is one and the children are still too young.. it’s only when all leave the nest and grow up.. the urge of then wanting a get together is a blessing….
Oh what would we do without technology these days??? Yes it’s all over the place, both in and outside of our homes… In and out of our pockets, from the ‘Bacha to the Budha’ weve all got them in some form or other.. What ever happened to primitive living??? Makes you wonder how on earth mankind ever managed before they actually came along…The more we discovery , I suppose the more Man wants…
Our children and the more newer generations will not and never know any difference… for them it’s the only world they know..And a normal part of living. And it just gets more mechanical as time prevails…
Your right about nothing ever gets DELETED, as we know it… and in some countries more than others ‘BIG BROTHER’ is always watching over you… Your Name, Date of Birth, Identity, National Insurance No, Passport, and other identity methods can track and monitor all. This certainly apllies in the UK.
Good luck with the new venture, look forward to hearing it…Hope by the time RAAN comes in the cinema’s I’m able to go n watch it myself…
Okay do work,rest n play
My lov as always

Hello Sir,
While waiting at Boston airport, just went through your today’s post and it left me wondering “Where does he bring this energy and dedication to be in touch with his readers from? What time management principles he follows that even after around 4hrs of gruesome flight from Dubai and spending quality time with his family, he makes sure that he does not miss on saying hi to his fans and readers across the world and update them about what happened in his life may be a few hours back. Awesome! I wish I can do that sometime”. Many congratulations and have a great year ahead.
Cheers!
Gaurav
Thanks for mentioning the existence of Amar Singhji’s blog. It is good to know that he too is born in Uttarpradesh (the birthplace of several great politicians, Prime Ministers and artists).
But how did he develop his roots in Calcutta? Hope he provide some more details of his service to poor and his contributions as Director of Banks and Air India.
Happy New Year Bachchanji.
Regards
Dear Sir, You said the magic words or took the magical names “Navya-Naveli, Agastya”, they are real reason to try to stay young and energetic. God Bless them both. I bet you feel refreshed already and ready to take on the world all over again.
Waiting to see what is in store for us after PAA
love Always

Day 621(i) # 343 Valorie Adams,
Hey Val how did you think that I am looking down at you from cloud 9, I thought you were sitting there with me. You were the one I thought of first when I saw the yellow gold. Friends don’t let friends fly solo and friends don’t leave friends behind to fly solo in good times. It is more of your accomplishment than mine, I just got lucky.
Love you too much

I have emerged from the theater once again after seeing Part 2 of ‘Phantom India’ but I will not be watching Part 3, which include the original parts 4&5, because I will be meeting up with my sister and others for an Indian dinner-How appropriate. I’m wondering if you have ever seen this fascinating 7 part series. They showed the some filming from a Tamil movie.
So now you will be a animated character in a film. Yet another challenge for you. It will be great to hear your voice. You are expanding ever further into more areas of film and entertainment. I can’t wait to hear more about it in the future.
I will remain with your love forever,
Rochelle
amitabh i was looking at photos of you in the internet your baby picture and cosequent pictures —– you are so cute —- adorable —- please write us about your childhood teen years who was your first crush who were your friends -some -school day stories— would be so fun to read —did you rebel or were you always well behaved —- and how about your marriage ,childrens births, i cant believe you drank and smoked or are these just rumours in the internet from jealous people - dont listen to miserable unhappy people — -listen to yourself love yourself and everyone will follow suit — no more responses today ive had my humble say ——— jackie
Dearest Mr. Bachchan…
One of your most loyal and loving EF wrote a poem not too long ago that really fits in with the post you wrote today!
I am going to type it in here for Him, so that everyone here on the Blog can enjoy it! Hope He won’t mind me doing this…
He is a very humble person and probably wouldn’t do it
Himself…
“BACCHE, BACCHE’ by Mr. Vishan Lal
Bacche bacche hain kahan? Sara jagat hairan ~
Jab jee chaahe jhatek den, badon badon ka maan.
Badon badon ka maan, gyan ke bane pitaare ~
Computer, Mobile, TV, inke pyaare.
Maana dhoodh ke daant, abhi hain jism ke kacche ~
Par kya man ke sachche, abhi bhi aaj ke bachche?
***Lovely, isn’t it, Mr. Bachchan? Back on November 16th, Mr. Vishan Lal asked me, ever so kindly, to take His translation and make it rhyme…I have put it off out of fear of disrespecting His wonderful poem…but I told Mr. Lal that I would do it… I don’t take requests like that lightly…So here it is…
I hope I have done justice to your poem, Mr. Lal…however, nothing will ever compare to the beauty of your original words, Sir.
“THE CHILDREN” by Vishan Lal
Are the children of today still really child-like?
The world around them watches and is amazed…
Today’s children are so technologically advanced ~
Their brilliance leaves adults behind and dazed!
Unlike those of us who find ourselves advanced in age ~
Young minds so easily absorb knowledge and information…
Where we once read books or rode on our bikes outside ~
Their time is spent with cellphone, TV and Play-Station!
Agreed, our little ones still display their original teeth ~
And yes, clearly their delicate bodies are still small…
But with this barrage of data and the lack of inter-action ~
Are they really still innocent children now at all?
******************************************************************************
***********Dearest Mr. Vishan Lal…I’m sorry if it isn’t what you wanted…I tried to stay true to the translation you had given me to work with…know that I wrote it with the best of intentions and with the utmost respect for you, Sir…*********
*****************************************************************************
Bahut khuub kahaa Amith G
have a gr8 day
Hi! Glad to see you happy.Thanks once again for the yellow band.I understand it is not possible to reply after couple of twentys, forget about the hundreds. We do understand but at the same time feel the pang ofpain for not being included.
I would have love to talk about various Hollywood films like “Up In The Air”,
‘ Nine” and ” It is complicated”and our own desi movie Three idiots, maybe some other time. I can only say that our way of telling a story is diferent than other films made here. I do not like to compare but it is different.As you cannot compare different novels,same way you cannot compare movies.Each of them were worth watching , some for its simple philosophy,some for good acting ,some for directions and some for the whole package.
Yes electronics are amazing, with a click of a button you can reach any part of the world and like an encyclopedia you can get every answers for your inqusitive mind.
You take care.
With lots of love

My very dear Mr Bachchan,
A pretty quote, thank you for sharing and very apt for your Dubai trip. Yes, it is vital to remain at one with ourselves from time to time and be in tune with that inner voice, which I believe is our best mentor and guide in all circumstances.
So pleased you are home safe and sound and were able to spend quality time with the grandchildren, who do sound increasingly grown up and composed by your descriptions each time you write about them!
That is quite a collection of technology and yes, it does rule our lives, and sadly we would be stagnant without it. A lot of our humanness is being swallowed up at the same time. We will find ourselves entirely without the need for human interaction and without the ability to converse soon!
You do raise a valuable issue about confidentiality - I had not considered it in that depth - and I certainly will investigate the extent of its relevance to ordinary folk like me!
My personal ethics ensure I am guarded with all information I convey. And unless trust is established with the recipient of messages and calls of course precautions should be taken. But it does sound very excessive and restricting that our voices can be recorded in our own homes! Indeed what would the purpose be and who would be storing the information…and what about when we sing in shower?! This must breach human rights to privacy to a certain extent. And yet none of this inhibits crime or corruption to any great degree. We the innocent, law abiding citizens are kept under surveillance while the true culprits of misdeeds escape unscathed! Most enlightening, frightening and dissatisfactory!
I have often wondered what creative stone you have not left unturned during your diverse career and… viola… the animation! I did giggle when I read that and of course the imagination has gone wild anticipating what wonderful ideas will unfold. At least its heartening that innovative concepts are continuously flowing. You always relish fresh challenges / career ‘firsts’ and it keeps your career interesting for both the public and yourself. It always has to be said, your willingness to change with the times and attempt to span each generation is most admirable and you are one of very few malleable enough to keep up with the times.
So, the very best of luck with your creative meeting; although I realise you are a nocturnal creature Mr Bachchan, I do hope you will not be working into the early hours!
I shall bid you a very goodnight for today and thank you for keeping in touch despite other commitments. Enjoy your dear grandchildren too, if you can prize them away from their gadgets, that is! They always do bring a lightness of spirit to your tone and they are perhaps the perfect antidote to solitude..
In and with reciprocation of your love…
Jasmine

O Amith G…, thank u sooooooooooooooooooooon much 4 a muaaaaah … iam blessed again by ur yellow line…… but ill pass on ur muaaah 2 da baby in my tummy which decided 2 show up after 2yrs
Ill make my baby ur biggest fan.. hope all goes well :;)
Dearest Kindest Mr. Bachchan, Sir…with your permission?
***PRIYA SAKHI MANASHI @ # 64*** I had written you a ‘THANK YOU!’ message about an hour ago…and it got WHOOSHED!!! HA! I was taught good manners, so HERE it is again… THANKS so much for that lovely translation!
I see that I own that movie ‘BEMISAAL’ and have yet to take the cellophane wrapper off of it! I will think of you when I watch it…can’t do that right now, however, because the
DALLAS COWBOYS are playing on TV and I must send them my very strongest ‘MOJO’ by watching them…
THANKS AGAIN, Priya Sakhi Manashi! Let’s hope this comment makes it thru…
dear amit ji,
watched ‘PAA’ again. when u like a film ..watch it again, in 2nd instance, you will catch teh nuances of the actors, director & the reason, why this scene , that plot,this tiny bit etc had to be….& had to be there.
i just needed to ask 1 thing. when we distribute the prints to teh cinema halls/multiplexes, do we make sure that the equipments are of right quality so that teh picture quality is not distorted? the projectors are right..? the volatage required is good..? or do we leave this to the protests of teh audience..?
while watching PAA here in lagos, in city mall, a multiplex, i observed that the voltage was lower than what it would have required for perfect viewing, or may be teh projector wasnt in order. the difference to me was vivid, but the audience largely complained, jeered, sloganed…but the management took no pains to make corrections. the audience ratio, amit ji, was 65:35, nigerian: indians. i loved that. the crowd loved it. again teh same feed back which i gave, when watched in india, teh 1st time.
ur powerhouse perfomance was’expected’ hence kudos to abhishek & vidya.
love u balki…. make more such films…amitabh bachchan will do justice to all teh roles u can conceive of…
take care all,
pankaj, & tanvi.
My Dear Mr Bachchan
Hope you had a good flight back to Mumbai.I always love it when you are at home with your loving family….especially the grandkids, they light up your life and it shows.
It was only yesterday i mentioned to a dear EF how fascinating technology is and today’s kids are very sharp.This is the computer age,because of technology the world is not a very private place any more.
Thank you again for the lovely yellow strip.I am glad you did some explaining about the responding to EF.I knew it was not deliberate and i also know that you have great affection for all of us.
All the best with your future endeavors in 2010.
Have a great day!
May God always bless and protect you,your wonderful family and all dear FmXt
My sincere love always….

Hello Sir,
I really felt bad about Day 621(i) 17th comment of Radha Bala.As i was scanning through the comments saw her comment,but its really bad to comment like that,I think you should not encourage those type of comments to enter into your blog,they must be deleted while modifying and updating in to your blog.
She dont have the right to talk like that,i hurt by her comment and i can understand how u would have felt but your response again impressed me and the respect towards you have doubled,am sorry for that comment of that lady.Fans Like me cannot see such comments on your blog.
Khud life mein Kuch Banthe Nahi to be recognised by public , Aur jo bhi bada banthe hai unko respect deni chahiye if not because of their present status atleast for their hardwork they have undergone all those years to be at this present status.
She was pointing you about your film but she is reading your blog since two years but she didnt understand where ever u go how much work u have u made her read ur blog each and everyday for those years,its a human nature if something creative of our own if put in a display then to get attention of public
we put some glittering things to attract the public then we expect the reaction if appreciated then we are most satisfied if not then we would definitely try harder next time to get that appreciation.
For example in her case if she buys a Mercedes Benz then it is obvious that she is satisfied and Happy with her car and would like to show it to everybody and expects gud response from people surrounded by her such is the human nature,if somebody buys a lamborghini then it doesnt mean that your Mercedez benz have no value in front of them.We agree Lamborghini is a gud car but when Mercedez is your car then you will be more interested in your car not in others car. So Radha Bala if u understand this then you know what a big mistake u have done by commenting Such an Admired Person on Earth.
She was saying about Aishwarya Rai,she doest have any right to talk like that about her,she was born on 1973 and won the Miss World title in 1994.At the age of 21 She became Miss World,What is Radha Bala doing at her 21.
In 2004 she was chosen by Time magazine as one of the World’s “100 Most Influential People”.In October 2004 a wax figure of Rai was put on display in London’s Madame Tussaud’s wax museum. She was the 6th Indian and the second Bollywood personality after her father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan to get this honour.Rai became the first Indian to appear on such shows as Late Show with David Letterman, and was the first Bollywood personality to appear on Oprah’s “Women Across the Globe” segment.
At this age of 36,she have done 38 movies since 1997 to 2008, ANd she is still continuing with more films, I question Radha Bala what did she achieved in her life … even if she achieved it is not as worth as she got any public recognition for her achievement.
Please Sir Send this message to her, because i wont tolerate if anybody talks about you like that.
This is Sudheer
am 24 now i dont how much old is Radha Bala if she is older i would feel shame on her to talk like that if she is younger i would say her to Grow Up
What Mr. Bachchan wrote today has moved me to write this, in addition to all the laments for having missed yellow lines that I keep reading. For those of you who despair at the lack of a yellow line, let me share with you a poem that I have always found strangely heartening, at many frustrating intervals of my life:
El Hombre
It’s a strange courage
you give me ancient star:
Shine alone in the sunrise
toward which you lend no part!
William Carlos Williams, 1917.
Keep in mind the most important thing, the miracle of our ongoing intercommunication on this blog, and trust in your own endeavor. Simply being here is worthwhile. For yourself, if you will let it be, and for others, if you think past yourself when you write.
For those who cut and paste the same thing day after day after day after day for weeks on end, think about how tedious it must be for Mr. Bachchan to have to read the same thing over and over and over again, a man who himself never repeats, but exerts himself each day, no matter how late at night that day might be, to write anew to you each and every day without fail. When you ask, in addition to all this, an extra exertion on his part in order for you to receive your own up-close-and-personal yellow line, think about what you have given in return.
I’m not talking about being brilliant or writing long comments, but of giving truly of what you have. Some of the most moving comments I have ever read on this blog have been those tremulous newcomers tip-toeing for the very first time into their life-time hero’s presence, or those commenters whose brief, broken sentences speak through the imperfect grammar of a second language to shine out in a true eloquence beyond words, speaking those dil se feelings that transcend language, that come straight from the heart.
Love to one and all,
Phyllis
Amitji, the use of gadgetry nowadays rules the world. School kids now have their own little net-books at school in Victoria. There is no need to take the whole class out to a computer lab. They sit at their desks and use their net books to search whatever is required. The libraries will be merely used as resource centres.
I do not complain about any yellow lines as I only wish to read what you write and also get the chance to give you some feedback. That is more than enough for me. Also, I know that you do read all the responses. So I seek no more, as I am quite content at that.
Your joy of going back home to meet your grand children is very exciting. I would also be excited if I was in the same boat. Yes, family is always there for everyone.
Regards to you and the Bachchan Family.
Dharmen
shubh naman amitabh bachchan ji and a very happy new year 2010… guess what??? my husband and i ended 2009 by watching ur movie DON… cant remember how many times we wud have watched it already.. i wish i get ur reply someday… wud wait forever with a hope to see ur reply.. love u
Hello Amitabh,
I am glad you’re back on home ground and enjoying your family.. nothing like enjoying some time off - but I could “see” that you were getting restless wanting to be back under normal circumstances again!
As for me, without meaning to sound ungrateful, since i have enjoyed some very welcome time off (Christmas and New Year holidays), i would love to give up my job (which I truly enjoy!) and be service to the rest of humanity - to be able to look beyond myself. I feel most restless when i hear the news each day - more killings, more disasters and sometimes the protective cocoon we spin around ourselves can just get tiring. I believe I should be out there doing more.. Hopefully that time too will come.
Goodbye and enjoy your day..see you in the morrow!
Dear AB
yes its true everything we do, write, is watched and recorded through some or the other form of technology and with the new gadgets coming everyday people have stopped talking and started chatting
they send emails, rather than calling over the phone, everything has become technology driven and 5 year old kids are playing on laptops, God knows what will happen in this decade ….lets hope and pray for the best.
enjoy your time with family & gadgets
love u loads
Vinita
Dear AB,
I couldn’t agree more with yours lines. A friend is someone who lets you converse without being judgemental and conscious of ones being. Once we realize it exists within, we stop looking for one.
I am glad you are back home and had a great time with your grandkids. I am too amazed by todays generation and their grasp over everything from technology to science to nature. It’s either sweet or cool or easy or boring!
Looking forward to the animation film. Are you going to do voice over for The Lion King? Stay warm.
love
Veena
Phyllis….will keep your comment in mind next time I fail to get a yellow line and want to complain. I am guilty of complaining and reading his blog today has multiplied my guilt. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. Deep down I do know he reads our comments but you know in our language there is an adage which says even a mother does not give unless asked. I guess our love and respect for him is so great that we become greedy. But once again, thank you.
Lakshmi
Dear Mr. Bachchan
Thank you…..I do not know how you do it. We have so much to learn from you and my respect for you has multiplied ten fold. Next time I promise I am not going to complain as I learned my lesson today. Take care and enjoy your family.
Lakshmi
I think my comment got kicked out. Oh Well,never mind. Hope everyone is well and nice to see lots of yellow stripes. Dear Sir should go to Dubai a lot often!!! Pranams.
Dearest Mr B,
Very happy for you that you are getting to spend time with your complete family again!! You are indeed very fortunate to be able to spend so much time together, tho’ am sure you always end up wanting more time.. all the time. My prayers for all of you to be together as much as possible & for the bonds of love, affection & respect to grow & bind you all together - Forever!!
Please do not feel guilty about not replying. We are here to read you, know your thoughts, learn from you .. just to be with you!!
All my love as always,
Archana Detroit.
Dearest Big B,
Your lines on loneliness are quite good - to think better to make best decisions & plans, one must have sufficient loneliness!
Lots of love of Navya & Naveli - you always don’t forget to write about them when they come to meet you. Ha, Ha. We haven’t seen their pictures, so if possibe please share their pictures on the blog.
Please take care, Lots of love
Dolly & Mukesh
Dear Sir,
Suprabhat, Yes, every time v want yellow lineeeeeeeeeee which is not possible.welcome back home.
regards,
rashmi army
Amit ji,
I AGREE THE BEST FRIEND ANY PERSON CAN EVER HAVE IS HIM OR HERSELF, IT IS THE ONLY PERSON THAT CAN BE TRUSTED 100%, CERTAINLY TRUE IN MY CASE!!

Amit ji, you’re soooooooooooo cute. Today I want to hug you and thank you from the bottom of my heart. Today I got my fourth lovely golden band and you know this one is my New Year Anmol gift from my dear dear Amit ji. You made my day and 2010. Thanks once again!!! Love you…
SAROJ, THANKS MY DEAR AND SAME TO YOU TOO!!!
MY LOVE AND GOOD WISHES ALWAYS…..
Dearest AB ji,
2010 is a good start to enjoy with family. Everyone must be sensing the excitement when you are surounded by family at home and get to do your stuff and at the same time be togather. Wish you many such happiness and consistant connection with your Fmxtd.
We all love you too much regardless of the yellow line. We are greatful & delighted & happy that you make certain to write to us even you are away & have less time to take a break or rest. Just be well & take care.
Love to each & very member of the family.

Dear Amitji,
New gadgets have become the parts and parcel of life. I wish if you could also join twitter and tweets(less than 140 words) good words (which you normally did) in KBC or Big Boss 3 i mean words of wisdom. Myself not sure if it is a good idea as you write blog more beautiful and elaborative..>I have said several times but again a new thought why you are so super actor for us, i was watching Don poster…and your running image, it appears that you will come out of the poster..it has life in it. I think in those days you gave everything possible your heart blood and soul to the characters and that is why they are alive even in posters, be it Mard, Coolie, Sharabi or Don…I don’t want to name all your super successful movie as everyone have heard it 1000 times zanjeer, sholay,deewar etc.
Respected Sir,
Good morning.
Welcome back to home.
Please take care.
Love and Regards

Dearest Zainab,
I just read your entry yesterday about your cousin’s passing away. I know this is a very hard time for you, my dear girl, and words seem totally inadequate when you are up against an experience like this. All I can do is to express my love and care for you, and to tell you how sorry I am for you and your family. You spoke bravely about moving on, and I admire your determination and your optimistic attitude. But crying is OK too, and sometimes it sweeps over you without any forewarning, so if you ever feel the need for an additional shoulder to cry on, know that I am here for you, that we are here for you.
With all my love,
Phyllis
Dear Sir,
Reading your blog is now absolute HABIT for our kind of people. Few things are noticable:
1. Command on language.
2. Selection of Topic
3. Flow of thought process
4. Attachment with us. (nevermind for not getting yellow line) sometime bigger than yellow line in store…… I met you in Ahmedabad in one cricket match in way back 1985….. I have still those memory.
By the way yesterday I have seen 3 Idiots. What a wonderfull movie. Amir Khan a real gem of acting. You never feel that he was acting, in fact he was living the cherecter. Good Movie and tough and healthy competitor to PAA as far as award winning race.
Regards with LOVE, LIGHT and REIKI……..

Dear Amitji,
my apologies for watching Paa so late as i was occupied with the heartfelt issue of telangana and it was emotionally difficult to watch the movie during this time.
Now the movie made my belief stronger in the sense that the days of spoon feeding the audience are slower getting over in hindi cinema.More than the prosthetics[although i aknowledge ur hard hours put in] i was amazed by the body language of Auro which was perfect.Ilayaraja,on whose music we in south grew up on, never misses the touch.Thanx for a good movie.
Vidya was beautiful and i would have drooled on her more if auro wasnt in the movie!Lol.
i would like to write a few lines of the revolutionary Hyderabadi poet Makhdoom mohiuddin remembering him.
raad hooN barq hooN bechain hooN paaraa hooN main
Khud-parastaar, Khud-aagaah, Khud-aaraa hooN main
gardan-e-zulm kaTe jis se woh aaraa hooN main
Khirman-e-jaur jalaade vah sharaaraa hooN main
Happy new year to u and ur family and also to the fellow citizens
cheers.

Amitji,
A Very Happy New Year to you and your family..!!
May you all entertain us even more than 2009 with Rann, Teen Patti and Ravana..
Looking forward to them all..
Cheers..
Shashwat..
Dear Amitji, NAMASKAR.
Nothing gives more happiness than the presence of family members around, particularly when everyone is so occupied with his/her own world. You, time and again are reviving the importance of joint family which unfortunately is losing existence due to many compulsions. Thank you for drawing attention of us towards importance of living together.
I very much liked the idea of working with TIMES NOW to bring closeness with PAKISTAN, culturally and emotionally. Surely this will cut distances in other fields also.
Praise is coming to PAA from all directions. I heard SHATRUGHAN SINHA on TV yesterday saying PAA as the milestone in the cinema journey. I hope the Government soon makes it TAX FREE so that it can reach more audiences particularly in all small cities also.
Having already been blessed with yellow lines couple of times, I know that you do not distinguish between one and another. But when we are missed having reached almost close, it hurts for a moment. We know you are fair always but ISS MAN KO KAUN SAMJHAYE……
As mentioned by Rochelle, we are happy that you are diversifying your involvement in other directions also. You will make the things PURE GOLD whatever you touch, be it ads, films, TV shows, poetry or anything. We want to see you work for many many more decades.
May I just remind that 4838485 still needs your kind attention please………. Hope you find time soon to clear that backlog as promised by you long ago but could not do it due to Bigg Boss and PAA, etc.
Vishan Lal
PS:
Dear Valorie Adams # 126: First of all I wish you a very happy and more poetic new year as I am addressing you here for the first time. I knew the translation from you will definitely come. I never thought of reminding you. And it has come early in 2010, I am really happy and grateful. And since you have thought of reviving my original poem in your post today, I feel humbled. When I read today’s post of Amitji, I really thought of my lines but did not want to repeat it myself.
You have done full justice to the translation. I could not have asked for more. The honour you have shown to my request is matchless which can be found only on the forum like this created by our dear Big B. I do not know how to replay you and in what way.? Here I just want to repeat “THANK YOU” for 108 times. Now why 108 times? You have to do some research. I hope you succeed. With heartiest blessings and respect. Vishan Lal
Good Morning mere Jaan se bhi aziz Amitji
Jitna time aap ne aeroplane se safar kiya hai in your life, utna time tou maine aapni puri zindagi mein havent travelled by a car. Great to see that you have travelled 3/4 of the continent on this planet earth. Sir I think you should visit Australia, Fiji and New Zealand to make it complete. You know “round round”…(Auro). Puri duniya ka chakkar. Aap sochana zaroor. Sorry Amitji, Auro ne tou dimaag par khabza kar liya.
Good luck with the animation film. Cant wait to see that. It should be great fun to hear your voice on that animated character.
Love you heaps

सादर चरण स्पर्श
पिछले कुछ दिनों से कुछ भी लिखने का साहस नही हो रहा था । कभी-कभी आदमी जैसा चाहता है वैसा कर नही पाता । मैं यहां ना लिख पाने के कितने ही बहाने क्यों ना बनाउं पर अपने बचाब में कुछ भी कहने के लिये मेरे पास नही है । बस यूं ही समय निकलता चला गया और चाहते हुये भी मै कुछ न कह सका कुच भी नही लिख सका ।
महाबलेश्वर से आने के बाद मन में कुछ एक घटनायें एसी घटीं कि बस क्या बताउं, क्या लिखूं । फेसबुक पर अमृत के फोटो के साथ नव वर्ष की बधाई पर किसी ने कहा - इतना सन्नाटा क्यों है भाई - उसका जबाव मैंने अपनी एक पुरानी डायरी में उसी दिन लिख दिया था आज आप सबके आथ उसे ज्यों का त्यों प्रस्तुत कर रहा हूं, वैसे मेरी इच्छा थी कि आपके हिंदी के संबोधन में उसे पेश करता पर ऎसा हो ना सका -
किसी ने कहा
इतना सन्नाटा क्यों है भाई ?
मैने कहा
कहो कैसे हो भाई ?
कगम-कदम पर शोर मचा है
आपा-धापी उठा पटक है
हर कोई अपनी ही
धुन में मगन है
नही मुझको भाता
तमाशा गजब है
मुझे कोई लौटा दे सपना पुराना
इसी बात का है ये
सन्नाटा सारा ।
हमारा तुम्हारा
कहां कुछ है नाता
नया गीत फिर से
ये दिल कैसे गाता ।
चलो आज फिर से
नया ख्वाब देखें
मानव में फिर आज
मानव को खोजे ।
मुझे नही अंदाज़ यहां का
नही खबर अंजाम वहां का
सूनापन भर देता मन का
गीत कहीं कोई लिख देता
कैसे पर तुमको समझाउं
अब सन्नाटा ही अच्छा लगता !
यह कविता तो नही कही जा सकती पर जो भी हो इसका वास्तविक श्रेय प्रीतम शर्मा को ही जाना चाहिये जिन्होने यह भर लिख दिया था - itana sannata kyon hai bhaai? प्रीतम शर्मा को मै व्यक्तिगत स्तर पर नही जानता । यह वही सज्जन है जिनके द्वारा मुझे यह पता चला था कि शोभित कौशल की पेंटिग्स कि प्रदर्शनी कहिं वरली में लगी थी । कुछ अन्य भी उस दिन लिखा था पर उसे अलग से ही प्रस्तुत करूं यही बेहतर रहेगा । यहां सन्नाटा ही काफी है शोर मचाने के लिये ।

Hi Mr Bachchan
Hope my mail finds you in the best of your health and spirits.
It’s so much joy to have the whole family with you cheering,laughing,giggling,cracking jokes,eating together and doing loads of fun.

wish you all the luck for the animation film.It will be something very innovative.
Take care

Amit dear …
Your message today made me realize that the only written communications we get are at Christmas time, when people write a few lines on a card and send it by snail mail, or the Christmas letter folks write to let you know what they’ve been doing all year. Gone are the long letters people used to write, which formed the basis of so many biographies and histories. I miss them, but on the other hand there’s much more communication with the people we love, since it’s so easy and cheap to phone or e-mail. Not anything you could stick on the mirror in your bedroom, though. We used to keep all those things where we could see them and be reminded of our boyfriends and the fun and romance of those early days. One little note and we were sighing over it for days. Weeks. Now everybody is texting …
Aloha from Hawaii …
Love, Dorothy
Dear Big B,
622 days and I am still waiting for a yellow line,as a matter of fact I have given up on it.Welcome back Emperor.
Rajeev.
Smita @ 89
Wow! What a cliff-hanger! Can’t wait for part 2!!!
Dear Emperor,
You are back in Mumbai ! We thought you wpold be here still for the opening of the iconic Burj Dubai - the tallest building in the world. I was telling my family that it takes a TALLEST icon to be present at the inauguration of the tallest building here in Dubai !!
We hope you had a pleasant stay here - we certalnly liked the lovely weather you brought here.
Talking about icons, today is the 15th death anniverary of RD Burman. You & him were associated in several superhit films - Bombay to Goa, Deewar, Sholay, Kasme vaade, Manzil, Satte Pe Satta etc. However there are films such as Mahaan, Pukaar & Great Gambler where you had voiced songs under his compositions. Could you please describe your experience & your association with him & let us have some insight on your favourite music composed by him.
Otherwise we wish you & your loved ones a very happy,healthy & peaceful 2010.

Dear Mr. Bachchan,
Technology without any doubt has given us a lot of convenience, but the way it has invaded our lives seems scary. I guess we should not mind it too much because it is only because of technology that we are able to connect with you.
Good luck for the animation film project.
Love & regards,

I was wondering about life.. I was not able to recollect how to express myself.. for a change I thought let me write what I feel in English.. the poor man’s thought are expressed here.. I switched over to Hindi sooner than later tells how difficult it is for someone like me to express myself poetically in a foreign language..which many would accept that I know it well enough..
Life
you are not what you pretend to be
Life
You are just a dream
that we all see
The times and tunes
the blaring trumpet
the words
that make us feel and
feed our mood
the song that we try
sounds best when we cry !
The sad times are the ones
the most inspiring we find !!
कल जब जाना होगा हमको
क्या कुछ हम ले जा पायेंगें
साथ धरा के मिल जायेंगें
महल दुमहले ये चौबारे ।
यहीं छोड़कर जाना होगा
हमको हर अपना सपना
कहां जायेंगें खो जायेंगें
मिल कर भी न मिल पायेंगे ।
दुनिया का दस्तूर यही है
आया है वो जायेगा
अमर नही तन सुन ले बंदे
क्यों भटके है फिर बांध के फंदे ।
आज यहां
कल कहां मिलेंगें
किसने कब यह जाना है
फिर भी रमता जोगी बनकर
हर कोई दीवाना है
अजब-गजब है खेल खुदा का
कब हमने पहचाना है ?

Good Morning! Today morning was a total disaster as I coudln’t read the blog and my mother scolded me.Please reply.I am desperate.Bye.

Hi Sir,
As stunning as it is to see the younger generations punching and working with technology faster then we could imagine, the pace at which the technology itself has developed is also as stunning. The world nowadays depends on such technology as almost everything is wired to some sort of gadget. Each is networked to another whose survival depends on the other. It is a world on its own. What one could not imagine happening yesterday is here today and what is imagined today is probably already in the process of appearing in the near future. What advancement! It is heartening to hear that you are getting the chance to spend time with the family as it is most important to do so. Enjoy it! Looking forward to hearing more about the creative animation project on hand.
Regards and Love,

I am late but nonetheless: A VERY WARM NEW YEAR WISHES TO YOU AND FAMILY:)…..Cheers frm K@mandu as always - Varsha
Respected Amitji,
Namaste.
I missed the yellow band yesterday.
I love you… Take care.
Love,
Zeta
I am anxiously waiting your forthcoming releases, Rann and Teen Patti. I wish both the movies great success.
Respected Amitji,
Lonely hours will sure give lot of time for introspection…
Nice to see you back with all the family members at home which is why i can see lot of smiles on your face. Amitji, u are sooo tech savvy .. i am not even half of it.. Boyyyy.. u talk abt Apple TV, iphone, PSP!!! Wow.. i would have ended up talking as Mango TV etc..!!
So there are more innovative concepts on board.. All the best for it sirji.. Yellow lines have become a treasure for a few the last two days.. Ofcourse we know it was not deliberately done.. But i console myself saying that ‘I too will get a chance dear’.
Till then i wrap myself with lots of your love.

सप्रेम सादर नमस्कार
यह कविता आज के इस अध्याय की समाप्ति पर प्रस्तुत कर रहा हूं, आज और अधिक नही लिख पाउंगा ।
एक नगर का राजा था
एक दगर का फाका था
एक झूमता गाता था
एक हरदम रोता रहता था
उस राजा से मैने पूछा
किस बात पे है वो इतराता
और उस फाके से भी पूछा
किस बात से है वो घबराता
दोनो की विपरीत कथा थी
सुनकर मन में हुई व्यथा सी
(मन को पक्का करके बोला)
जुदा-जुदा है हाल तुम्हारा
है कैसा यह संसार निराला ।
जब आये थे तब रोते थे तुम
जब जाओगे तब रोयेंगें हम
नही रुका है नही रुकेगा
मेला है जीवन का संगम ।
अभय शर्मा
पुनश्चः अंतिम दो पंक्तिया प्रारब्ध में नही लिखी गईं थी उन्हे बाद में पद को पूर्ण करने हेतु यूं ही लिख दिया है ।
Dearest Mr. Bachchan, Sir…with your permission?
***VISHAN LAL @ # 162***
Ohhhhh…I am so glad you found it to your liking, Sir!
It makes me unbelievably happy to hear that! But I am not worthy of your kind praise, it was your poem…all I did was put some rhyme to the English translation.
I did the homework you gave me! Let me show you the results of my ‘research’:
1) In Hindu Dharma, the number 108 represents the Brahman.
2) The Gayatri Mantra, which is the Mantra of ALL Mantras,
is chanted a minimum of 108 times. The more you chant
the Mantra, the more peaceful the mind becomes.
3) Some believe that the number 108 is a ‘magic number’ or
a spiritual number in Hinduism.
4) Some believe that this number represents the body.
One of the Upanishads states that there are 108 paths
from the heart for the vital breath in the body.
5) Malas (or Rosaries) have 108 beads and are used to keep
count of mantra recitation in Hinduism.
6) The only way you can repay me is to be my friend for
the next 108 lifetimes…minimum…
Thank you for the enlightenment, Mr. Lal. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share your beautiful poem.
With my most sincere affection, Valorie Lynne Adams
Respected Amitji,
Good Morning here in Mumbai.I aggree with you @ 4 lines you mention in bold letter,then our younger gen.is quite smart and computer educated and they are also much more interested in information and technology.pl keep in touch as allways.love u lot.
Ram Bhole.
Dear Mr. AB
How wonderful to see the precious gold again! I am delighted for the lucky recipients, but mostly happy to see you walking among us and feel your presence near. Being online at the same time and watching the peela lines appear - almost as if you walked through my room….lol….dream on….but the knowledge that you are there at the other end of an invisible wire is real.
It’s thanks to all the gadgets and the exploding technology that we are more than a faceless mass to you and you are so much more than a shining star in the distance to us! We are so blessed to have this communication.
Our children are born into the knowledge and know no other way. The kindle might be a good thing (although I would rather go hungry for a while before giving up my beloved old books), but sometimes I wonder whether the next generation will even have the attention span to read a long book.
But they will build their own world, see to their own needs and will have to find a way to live in it. It is our job to give them as easy a start as we can. By leaving an inhabitable planet, for instance.
Will the cartoon character with your voice look like you? Please tell me soon, I might take a long long long time to get used to the idea….and love it in the end, of course….
Love you now and always,
Renate
Dear Amitji
Just landed in Abu Fhabi and am on my way home to do my bags and get on with my formals to go to office…
Flight was pleasant but the memories back home still live in my mind..
Nice to know the family mbers back home waiting for you and also receiving u at the Airport..

Dear Sir;
It’s exciting to know that a animation film will be made with not only your voice but also with a carachter which looks like you! That’s amazing.
No-one has covered the spectrum of entairtainment as you have. Kudos to you.

Morning Amit ji,
Another stimulating post…a great one to start the day with! Thanks and reverence! Yes, there’s no secrecy left around…save gadgetry and the waves…not even in relationships…they are broken over whims and in seconds and the next moment you see partners (once in unison) splashing dung at each other with effortless ease…
I thank god each moment for bestowing me with loved ones, true in letter and spirit, holding the faith in me….faith in goodness…your blog is one such junction…of love, of respect,of admiration,of peace,of faith…
Until we meet in your next post,my deepest reverence and wishing you a great day ahead!

I have no idea what Kindle is-never heard of it.
I wound up seeing all 3 parts of ‘Phantom India’ when I realized I had time for part 3 also. It was a perfect way to spend 7 hours indoors on a bitter cold day. (In my previous comment, I had mistakenly said that the original parts 4 & 5 were in Part 3 when it should have said Part 2.) I was surprised that the section on Bombay had no mention of Hindi cinema.
I just said goodbye to my sister after the Indian restaurant, my dish being Bindi Bhajee and her dish accurately representing the ‘very spicy’ in the title.
Now there will be more lonely hours sharing my deepest secrets with myself. I’d rather not know them.
Have fun with the family.
Love,
Rochelle
Dear Amitabh Bachchan,
I worked today , on sunny Sunday .. : )
Spending time in a loving and cheerful family circle is the most joyous of all..
I am so happy for you that you have your family around you back home now, including your wonderful grandchildren. Enjoy it and God bless you all ..
*
The world of modern gadgetry is out of my reach to a degree : )
I have a mobile phone and a several years old stationary computer, and I can perform the functions I need the most with what I have.
But the world of electronics is exciting and fascinating and I hope to keep up with it and upgrade
some day : )
*
What you mentioned about everything people say or write being electronically monitored and recorded seems to me outrageous .. The aspect of breaking privacy and confidentiality on everyday basis in the society is against all norms and human rights. It was already practiced by totalitarian regimes - and not for humane purposes ! But in the democracy I suppose the consent of the citizens should be sought and received .. It is called - the freedom of conscience !!
You say that - “our words and feelings expressed in voice or its substitute shall be with us in perpetuity ..” In a sense it is always true ! The words will permanently mark and influence the thought process of another. And I believe we have a choice to decide if what we say can be hurtful or damaging and by any means abstain from such. It is very real in the channels of everyday communications.. We are responsible for each other this way..
*
I am immensely grateful for your time and attention in giving us personal replies.
It means so much for all !! And I thank you again for your kindness and love …

Hi Mr. Bachchan
Its fantastic to know that you are back & the house is full.
Yes, I feel that comments above mine & below get lucky at times by getting a yellow line but I don’t feel bad at all, bcoz the effort is always there to connect, share & respond.
The new venture of animation with Priyadarshan handling the creatives sounds interesting & exciting.
I am sure Agastya must be in a bad mood as Man U got defeated last day quite badly by Leeds.
take care
love & regards

Of course Auro Pass ho gaya hai.
Magar ab pass hoye bhut din ho gaye. Now Auro must change the dress and get ready for admission in next class of Sir Raan.
Isn’t it ?
Respected Dad,

Perhaps I am crying in wilderness.
Good bye Dad.
Hi smita**
Two days back I had a dream about me scanning through the comments on Amitiji’s blog. Under your comment I saw the most famous loving yellow strip. The very next day Amitji replied to you. How strange na. I had dreams of Amitji in the past but never of his blog, extended family or yellow strip. How our mind wonders around while we sleep. I look for who Amitji has replied to “yellow strip” in my dreams..hahaha.
Hope you are fine. How is your husband now?

Dear Amitji,
Its indeed a great pleasure and joyous to be with the loved ones………. So enjoy every moment…………take care of your health.
Dear Sir, I have been requesting you to write your association with Om Prakash ji. a great artist……….HOPE U READ THIS REQUEST..
Rajasekhar Pillai
Dearest of all dearies Amitji,The connectivity is all we long for ,the coveted response aka YELLOW band is the bonus and love/affection pill for us…so please understand that it’s expected by all but given to few is not a sign of undue favour to some but just a little time constrain..so no worries Amitji everbody cannot win the race but being part of the team doesn’t rob the excitement of the winning team…WE LOVE THE WAY YOU ARE and thankful from the core of our heart for the attatchment and connectivity with you.
Regarding the battle of gadetry …..everybody is fighiting as the tecnology changes so fast and it moves on and on…but todays kid challange even the professionals to keep updated.
The unaduterated laughter with the family is PRICELESS even matercard can’t buy that ha….ha….(see IT’S UNADULTERED ..LOL)The charm of seeing /meeting one’s family is unequalled and unparalled coz for the world you are someone but for the family you are their world…so enjoy their company and may God bless with joy ,hapiness,peace and good health to all in the family.
When you say” I cannot divide affection ” it soothes the sunshine (yellow band) deprived souls and build the confidence multifold…so to say the least just count your blessings dear FMXT’S and the sunshine will follow sooner or later….with love and regards vikas…
*******************************PLEASE MENTION JAYAJI ON THE BLOG ,WOULD LOVE TO HEAR ABOUT HER********************************PLEASE PLEASE*************
Dearest Amitji,
With you permission Sir,
Smita # 89
I am dying to read part 2 of the story. Well since you are saying that it is the most memorble day of your life, i am sure you would have met Amitji that day at the KBC studious. Well 9 years later, the excitement to meet Amitji again remains the same.

My dearest Mr. Bachchan,
” Lonely hours are the best hours of life
Because
Its the only time
We share our deepest
Secrets with the most
Trusted person in the world”
I completely identify with those words. It is a therapy, nothing less, to spend time with our Selves periodically…not so much for being at peace, but to go within, to connect and listen in. Like they say, if you do not go within, you go without! It is amazing how much we glean and how much we discover of ourselves, when we do that! The idea is to sort ourselves out, and understand Why we Are, and Who we Are. Ohhhh….there I go again! I am sorry!
Your being with the grand children, and describing the atmosphere in the house right now was blissful to read, to say the least! One wishes that time would stand still and things would stay that way for eternity! But oh, if wishes were horses, beggers would ride!! Change is the only permanant feature of our Be-ing, after all, and it is because of it, that we grow and we evolve! Bless the little ones….they sound like Masters in Computer Technology already!! And they make their Grand-daddy so, so proud of them - it is so evident - this pride in your tone as you speak of them each time! May it ever reamin so!
Please do not worry about being unable to respond to us each time Mr. Bachchan….yes, when you do, you transport us into a heaven beyond description, but even when you don’t, just being here with you and the others is extremely satisfying and a joyous experience in itself! Sad thing though, that each time I miss out on being here is exactly the time you choose to catch up with the responses….but not to worry…..I am doing fine, happy in the knowledge that I share this paltform with you!
Take care and remain well always!
With much love,
Always,
Kashmira
May I address our EF too….? Thank you!

Dear Sir,
Greetings!
I am still wondering what next after Paa for the actor in Amitabh Bachchan???
Gadgets is a good catch sir… May be we should have a story like bond films or others in Hollywood, wherein gadgets develop brain/understanding which is far too better than humans and ofcourse, gadgets do not have any emotions… That could be a deadly combination for human existence and who better to save the world from these demons but one hero like AURO who may have life threatening problems but with it is god gifted with extraordinary brain. May be his brain functioning percentage is far more than anyone else on earth… That is how god has compensated him. This is simple stupid thinking process because I would only like to have “KUCH ALAG” from you sir. Thanks!
Best Regards,
Nitin Prakash

Hi,
Hope you had a great day before you sat down to engrave your day’s routine.
It’s been only 3 months or little more that I started reading your blog…and it’s a great way to unwind from my work.
Sometimes, I discuss your thoughts and feelings with my friends and praise the way you write.
But one of my friends refuse to agree that you really don’t personally write the blogs but you make any of your assistants to write it for you, and I really and really don’t agree with her and I tried to convince her, but, its been real tough….can you please reply back something so that I can prove that AB really takes some time from his busy schedule.
When people don’t find time to fill their own diaries you really walk that extra mile for us and take your really and really precious time (bed time) and write for us….
Really thank you for your time and all the work you do for us…be it movies or writing for us…Thank you very much…
Best Wishes,
Cygnet.
141 Dear Lakshmi Jag, I loved that adage you mentioned, much better than the English one “the squeaky wheel gets the grease”!!
Personally, I see no reason for you to feel guilt. I always love reading your interesting comments, and I imagine that Mr. Bachchan enjoys them too.
And sometimes a request or even a complaint can be a legitimate exchange, a true communication. It’s just those cut and paste demands that are my personal pet peeve, demands that don’t partake of the spirit of inter-communication that I think is the life’s breath of this blog.
Love and regards, Phyllis
आदरणीय अमिताभ जी, आपने अपने एक इंटरव्यूह में कहे थे कि आपके जीवन की सफलता का राज … जो अपने मन का हो सो अच्छा और जो मन का ना हो सो और भी अच्छा .. क्योंकि जो अपने मन का नही होता वह ईश्वर करते हैं और ईश्वर कभी गलत नही करते … ।
यदि आपको कभी समय मिले तो इस बारे में हम पाठकों व प्रशंसकों को विस्तार से बतानें का कष्ट करें ।

Dear Valorie #126 and #180 and Vishanlalji #162: The revival of your poem and its excellent translation by Valorie reminded me of my own promise to you in Novemebr that I will answer your question. I wish I could write in verse, like the two of you, and am feeling quite inadequate right now. Let me say in simple prose that yes, I do think that despite their ease and familiarity with technology, bachche are still man ke sachche.
I think the span of childhood has been shortened, with children learning at 3 or 4 years of age what we did at 7 or 8, and being as tech savvy (perhaps more, far, far more) at 7 or 8 than we are at 25 or 45 or 65. That is a function of the times and the world we live in. They are exposed to so, so much, and born into a complex world, they master its complexities really quickly. They are admired for their smart replies rather than respect towards their elders. Our values and messages to children have changed, and they have adapted at lightning speed. We encourage and nurture their tech-savviness, and provide them with all the gadgets that we then admire them for using. As Amitji said and we all realize — the times, they have a’changed.
But I do feel children’s purity, their innocence, their knack of saying things or asking questions with a directness that leaves us amazed and wondering “Where did that come from?” is still intact. For a shorter time, yes. They lose the innocence faster, yes. Childhood is truncated, most certainly. But luckily, they are not born with a pet mein darhi yet!
I see the innocence of the child who befriends the ghost in “Bhootnath”. Even Auro, at 12, with his knowledge of his imminent mortality, has his innocence and purity that shines through in the monkey dance. Ok, this is getting too long, so I’ll stop now.
Regards, Vishanlalji.

Dear Amit ji ,
We are not saying that you delibrately do that but just are wanting to let you know that we really feel left out or sad not having been able to get a response form you…………..its not a complain or accusation but a expectaion or wish of being responded to………a desire that we all come here to be wiht u n feel a part of this BIG GREAT Family…………
But know for sure today or tomo or someday we will surely be lucky ones to get a covetted yeloow line from our very own BIG B………..
N yeah I-Phone is just like you simply superb and untachouble in trems of what you both stand for………quality , high standards, class, no.1, offering something than no one else has, leading the pack, outstanding, …………..can go on n on……………….
GOD BLESS U…….

Dear Amitji, Good Morning. Being away from home is like being away from our epicentre. Returning back is a feeling of being homely and most relaxing. No paid comfort can equal the pleasure of home comfort where the mind is in its natural state of rest and lowest centre of gravity. One just falls in place at the right spot for the head feet and mind.
Daughter and grand-children fill the house to its complete brim. The scattered gadgetry makes the world converging and very small. One has windows opened to the entire world on click of a button. Children are very fast in mastering the endless new list of gadgets which never existed a decade ago. It is almost God has been replaced by Google or internet. If Internet would have been few centuries ago we would have had temples dedicated to Bhagwan Internetji Maharaj.
Hope you are back to your favourite daal sabji bhindi roti and ofcourse everything that grand children munch. You cannot match their lightening speed of thoughts and actions. Honestly you will be as slow as Auro in front of them. It must be a delight to watch them grow in stature and vocabulary.
A full house is God’s gift of happiness. There is no other worldly pleasure that can match family union.
4th Jan 1978 I lost my mother and never again felt that completeness of family in her absence. Infact always feel that she could have lived longer to give solace in life’s difficult times. Or she could have enjoyed fruites of her hardwork and hardships endured for us. So when you mention a feeling of family completeness I can easily relate what it means and when it ended for me.
Have a wonderful time and new work promising to be different as animation film. May be people want you to play different roles without showing you in person.

Good Morning Sir,
It’s always good to be back home, ghar ghar hi hota hai, kahin bhi kyun na chale jayen, right??
Today’s children are very smart, they know everything better than us, that’s why some people call them Computer Generation……..my son Aarav is 5 years old, he started computer in his school since last year……whenever i used to work in my laptop at home, he used to come and tell i want to Paint, my teacher tells me to practice at home…..we asked his teacher, she said, yes why not, you should have given long back……finally me and his dad gave him a Laptop this X-mas…….his father have put some latest songs also there…..you won’t belive since that he gets computer everyday for 1 hour but there is no Paint…….only songs and songs…..he keeps taking his videos, clicks everywhere to check what is where…….no paint nothing……and now he’s pushing us everyday to put internet in it, we had decided we’ll not give him internet for sometime for which he says, pls buy for me internet, i want to play Ben-10 games……..we clearly said, no but he never fails, asks everyday, sochta hai kya pata aaj maan jayenge……God it’s really difficult to handle….he wanted a PS3 when he was not even 4, i just kept pushing it saying next year, next year…….Game boy is finished long back, TV games are over…….i am scared to get PS3, otherwise he’ll not move from there…..
Today is a big day for Dubai, Burj Dubai’s opening….i am pushing him to go and see, let’s see jayenge ya nahi….

Hullo Genius,
May the sun, moon and stars shine bright and bring cheer and good tidings to you and your family ever and ever.. full of mirth , laughter, peace, knowlegde and prosperity… last , but not the least.
Well. it takes a time and lots of effort to build relationships and as much to let them go…those which go in a snap, were obviously not worht the relationship…. the effort to sustain them is important and we appreciate your effort. Though at times, one does get into doubt about one’s level or degree of acceptability; but what overtakes it all is the fact that one chose to associate unconditionally and without reciprocation… so why any expectation?… that was not the promise, so everything that comes by is a gift to be cherished. High thinking… nedds to be repeated mentally for conviction. Since the connect is so difficult , have even given up the ambition of that cherished cup of tea or glass of lemonade .An iota of doubt creeps in at times when the sun shines always on some, rarely on others . But, let us leave it at that. So, long as there is courage and conviction to be around it is ok to stay connect. Perhaps when that inner feeling dies… things maybe different.
Well about the opening lines.. very beautifully said , I am sure, not by you …. but limit it to just poetic justic…. otherwise life can be very difficult to live… have written about this earlier ( trust )also, but I dont know if you read it.
Re saw Bawarchi last night … with the voice over of the very young AB;;. nice , very nice. also saw Baghban: I liked the story of Baghban, simply for the bonding between man and woman… something to be cherished and needs more to be propagated…i.e if emotions can be propagated.
So another animation …ok… good luck
my affection as always
Dearest Big B and FmXt
A very happy new year to all of you! May you have a wonderful year ahead, those known to you, those unknown, and everyone. Have a great time.
:-)Joke of the day
Bad Dream
Jemima was taking an afternoon nap on New Year’s Eve before the festivities. After she woke up, she confided to Max, her husband, ‘I just dreamed that you gave me a diamond ring for a New Year’s present. What do you think it all means?’
‘Aha, you’ll know tonight,’ answered Max smiling broadly.
At midnight, as the New Year was chiming, Max approached Jemima and handed her small package. Delighted and excited she opened it quickly. There in her hand rested a book entitled: ‘The meaning of dreams’.
haa kya ?
sir aap outstanding actor hey .. ?
areey
mujhey to pata hi nahi tha .. na ?

Hey!!
Wish you a world of fan-followers, plenty of love, affection and respect!!
Beyond the duty towards your welwishers, you have assumed responsibilities towards your race, one of humanity. This is not to say, you have fallen short of.. But just to remind you of your potentials.
Your voice is heard far and loud, there are things that you can express and be heard. There is a lot more that a 60+ mature human can do, and more so when there are such huge followers across globe, I am not too sure if there are UFOs following you too
With you enlightenment!! May you achive more and more, not just for self but for the rest of the human race!!
God Bless!!
Mr Bachan,
Great to know you are lending voice for animation movies.These movies are the next big thing in India and will definately have a huge audience as our public especially kids are known to enjoy these if well made.Why dont you come with an animation movie named adventures of Auro and get auro and his monkey toy and some school friends as animated characters going on some adventures .It will click as Auro is already a superstar.Think abt it if not thought by you already.
NAMASTE AMITJI

DEAR AMITJI,
I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH YOUR MODERATORS.. I WAS ALL ALONG UNDER THE IMPRESSION YOUR BLOG ALLOWS FREE THOUGHT AND THAT IS CLEARLY NOT THE CASE!! I WROTE ON 2 OCCASIONS MY VIEWS ON THE CHETAN BHAGAT AND 3 IDIOTS SAGA AND WANTED YOU TO SHARE YOUR VIEWS IF YOU FELT LIKE BUT YOUR MODERATORS HAVE COMPLETELY BLANKED MY COMMENT OUT!! WHAT FOR?? THERE WAS NOTHING ABUSIVE AND I HAD USED PROPER LANGUAGE.. IS IT NECESSARY THAT YOU SHOULD GET COMMENTS ONLY REGARDING YOUR BLOG OF A PARTICULAR DAY?? HAVE YOU GIVEN YOUR MODERATOR INSTRUCTIONS TO CUT OUT ANY SUCH BLOGS AS YOU DO NOT WANT TO LAND YOURSELF IN A CONTROVERSY?? SURELY, YOU WOULD NOT HAVE GIVEN SUCH INSTRUCTIONS.. BUT IT SICKENS ME THAT AS A TRUE FAN OF YOURS I CANNOT EVEN EXPRESS MY OPINION ON ANOTHER SUBJECT BEFORE YOU.. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO COMMENT YOU NEED NOT BUT WHY NOT ALLOW THE COMMENT ITSELF TO BE PUBLISHED? I AM SADDENED BECOS I REALLY THOUGHT YOUR BLOG WAS A 2 WAY STREET WHERE WE COULD SHARE THOUGHTS.. RGDS..
My family wishs you a very happy New Year-2010.
May the year 2010 brings lot of Cheers, Happiness, Good Health , Fame and Fulfillments.

Ohh to aap yahiiiiiiiii hey … hummmmmmmmm pakadh liya !
Dear Amit Ji
Well Said ….The completeness of family is the most joyous moment in any life…ppl who are not with their family or loved ones understand this the most ….just to share i have been passing through the phase of life where i have understand this the hard way.
I lost my Elder bro just a year back when my Dad is laready suffering from Advanced stage Lung Cancer ….and now me and my Bro have just recently got married ….so its a full turn ….but i agree life is still incomplete without my Bro .
Anyways wish you a great time with your family …..i beleive one just should have a blast whn life has bring good days for you …..You never know when it will slowly turn itself away from you and act in a different way….

Dear Amitji ,
There is such happiness when family is around .
Especially when children become big and have
independant lives of their own . Its a pity when
kids are young the father generally is away earning.
And when we have the money kids dont have the time .
Well life is a heady mix .
Amitji , someday when you feel and have the time ,could
you please share with us something about the great singer
Kishore Kumar . His playback singing suited you so well .
Do talk about you and him if you can .
Love and love
Sumesh

Amitabhji, what you make out of your forthcoming film ”Rann” after its trial run. is it going to be a worthy successor to ABCL’s ”Paa”?
This time Ramu better watch ”rann” repeatedly before you decide to release it.
This man is unpredictable. He does not make full use of his vast talent.
Come on Ramu we expect a super hit from you in Rann as it has the greatest actor in its cast–shri Amitabh Bachchan
WISH RANN GRAND SUCCESS AT THE BOX OFFICE

Rochelle 191 - Kindle is the high tech electronic version of the old fashioned book.
It’s a little screen (6 inches or so) with some kind of wireless intenet connection so you can download entire books straight to your screen. I think it can hold something like 1,500 books.
I can’t ever imagine wanting to do my reading like that… I love proper paper books you can touch and smell and love, not an endless scrolling screen. The book is an example of timelessly perfect form and function (much like the cat in fact).
And I utterly adore having my entire library literally all around me… though I do take this to extremes with my whole flat overflowing with books.

किसी ने कहा
इतना सन्नाटा क्यों है भाई ?
मैने कहा
कहो कैसे हो भाई ?
-कदम-2 पर शोर मचा है
आपा-धापी उठा पटक है
हर कोई अपनी ही
धुन में मगन है
नही मुझको भाता
तमाशा गजब है
मुझे कोई लौटा दे सपना पुराना
इसी बात का है ये
सन्नाटा सारा ।
हमारा तुम्हारा
कहां कुछ है नाता
नया गीत फिर से
ये दिल कैसे गाता ।
चलो आज फिर से
नया ख्वाब देखें
मानव में फिर आज
मानव को खोजे ।
मुझे नही अंदाज़ यहां का
नही खबर अंजाम वहां का
सूनापन भर देता मन का
गीत कहीं कोई लिख देता
कैसे पर तुमको समझाउं
अब सन्नाटा ही अच्छा लगता !
यहां सन्नाटा ही काफी है शोर मचाने के लिये ।

One can say that PAA is inspired by Benjamin Button but story is totally original.
But 3 Idiots is definitely Chetan Bhagat’s story, 5.Someone. Commonsense, u r right. why don’t they celebrate their 100 cr with the man who gave them story instead of showing Bollywood in its usual poor light? Also, they go to the media, then tomorrow they will blame media for “blowing out of proportion. Then day after tomorrow they will go pick up awards hosted by same media!!!

My dearest Amithji,
How are you ?
Yes Amithji, lonely hours are the best hours of our lives, but only sometimes.If we are lonely too often then it may lead to somekind of depression!Is’nt it? So it is better we do some balancing act.
Many of the FmXt (including me) do express their sadness for missing the yellow line by a whisker, but they also add that , we do very well know your busy schedule, hence we do understand & are ready to wait forever for that coveted yellow line! That , you blog & read our comments is initself a gift to us fans,from God, so what more do we need ? So , please do not despair.We are very happy the way things are right now, only please share more photographs ,of yours, on this blog.
i think, now , the saying ’so & so is born with a silver spoon in his/her mouth’ should be changed as, ‘born with a laptop in his/her hand’ .
Thats how savy they are nowadays. I too , have a nephew who is 11years old, & the way he handles all electronic items at his home , is to be seen to be believed!!!!
Has new scenes been added to the movie, PAA? If so, would love to go & watch it again.
Take care,
My love & support to you, always,
kapana kakade
Dear God,
Am aware of your busy schedule. dosnt matter anyway
if u reply to my comments. I wish only the very best for u always.
Rajib
Dear Sir,
Wishing you a very good afternoon there in India. I have missed writing comments to many of your Posts. It is only fair that I leave a comment for each Post having had the privilege of being able to read about your day-to-day activities. I am so glad you got to spend some time in Dubai and the experience will have done you a world of good. I shall leave a comment for each day that I missed but please feel free to skip reading if you cannot recall what I am talking about.
Day 615 Post - you have written about explanations as given by nature and science. You are right, scientific explanation will be backed up with proof but there will always remain some specific questions, explanations to which will remain beyond human’s capability. Many of us have wondered whether “someone” or some alien could be studying human mind/behaviour from “up there”. If “she” (doesn’t have to be a HE all the time) is watching me write this, can I just say to her “Hello alien bahen ji, would you care to share with me the mystery of life?”
There, jotting down that thought has cheered me up! It is never easy getting back to work in January in frosty conditions you know. To console myself, I have brought along a piece of cake which will be served with hot custard. If that does not lift the mood, I can always look for a chocolate gateau.
Day 616 - You wrote about cricket…I remember making use of my expertise on the subject whilst commenting.
Day 618 - You were in Dubai for Krishna Kapoor ji’s birthday celebration. There would have been no better birthday present for her than to see her immediate and extended families and friends all coming together, in this day and age, to wish her. I wish her and her family well.
You have written about the optimism and apprehensions for the New Year. If you have had to take a step back in your life, you have moved two steps forward. It shows that beneath the Legend is a human being who continues to make progress in spite of the odd drawback. You being where you are at this stage in your life, you have done exceptionally well for yourself, your family, the industry and the Indian race, last but not the least your fans. May all your dreams come true.
Day 619 - Thank you Sir for your kind wishes to this extended family. I have already wished you A Happy New Year, my wishes at the top of the list are good health and happiness for you.
Day 619 (i) - “To those that….” You have covered here every person and every eventuality. You do not just connect, you place yourself on the same level as us…just so..so humble you are Sir. Thank you for caring and sharing your thoughts with us. Your thoughts are profound and so valuable, we could not have received a better Christmas gift.
The screen awards for Paa and Three Idiots…can Auro ever be replaced in history regardless who takes home the trophy? Auro is not just art, Auro is attachment. Auro lives in the body’s system for ever and ever. I would say to “the rivals”….”Take all the awards and accolades which you may/may not deserve but Auro’s worth can never be compromised nor compared to another piece of art.”
Day 620 and the following Posts…I shall comment tomorrow.
Now I’ve forgotten the contents of today’s Post…what were you saying Sir…?Aaa….hh! Technology!! My favourite! I love technology! For what would happen to it without me…!
Love,
Daksha
DEAR ALL, I have noticed that comments addressed to Amitabh sir drip with honey & phillosophical add-ons to his post. Everyone sounds almost like his soul-mate. No diverse opinions, no ifs or buts, only jats! But when a Radha Bala comment appears suddenly the spiritual calm evaporates & the ugliness that flows through the keying fingers is as horrible as the offensive comment. “LOSER! LOSER!” SCREAMS THE MOB IN FRENZY THAT WOULD HAVE PUT ROMANS TO SHAME!
Even though anybody with a modicum of intelligence can guess that Radha Bala & all other such ppl who hide behind anonymity should be ignored. That is their best punishment, period.
The person has obviously used a fictitious name - its voice is that of a man. Probably a rabid fan of a rival star or somebody who has had an unpleasant experience with sir. Nobody is a paragon of virtue. Not even sir. Else, instead of revelling in the adoration (towards him) & hatred towards others he would reprimand those “fans.” Anyway, this is a curious phenomenon common to most idols & gurus. To preach peace & calm until it gets too close for comfort.
Lastly, what does it say of all you who pose as MATURE people? Where does ALL THIS HATRED COME FROM? Is not vengeance & hatred the creed of terrorists? When even innocent muslims are looked upon like that why are there so many ranting non-muslim names? Shouldn’t you’ll leave it to Radha Bala..whoever’s karma?
Lots of questions. Think.
Na mooh chhupa ke jeeyo (radha bala)

Truely said ,”lonely hours are the best hours …
In this hours we try to absorb the force what we desire , effort to absorb the hidden beauty of the world and share the secret with 100% trusted person .
Todays parents are too much cautious about their kid .. they want to see own child as topper in the every fields .. they want to make leader not follower. if you will visit neighbor’s home then only discussion point are .. achievment of my kid my kid ..my kid . once I was surprised to see in a friend’s house , his child taking a tution in late night 11.30 pm due to no time is spare to learn that subject …
international Player _cricket to football,boxing to chess ..indoor to outdoor games .., engineer,dance, music, painter , Doctor,MBA.law , MCA, CA , CS , ICWA….. singer , Actor with dimension …comedy to action , direction to production story to lyric ,music , photography, editing ….complete in one package ..in single child brain BOX.
nice to know your Golden voice in animated film .

Today,feels little pain in eyes while reading your post but read it…. after all, it is your hand-written post so,how I can leave it ??? Sad to know that you back ,means that the chances of my reply reduces again but feels much happy on your safe return to Mumbai.But I am still waiting which ,surely,remove my all pains !
Love you very much and always, forever ,
Take great care of your self ,

Thank you very much Sangita.Always,keep in touch.Love u,bye.
Saroj !
Thanks a lot.Always needs your comments and my pleasure to read you.Love u,bye.
Line coming straight from lonely hours is quite a good one. I am still striving hard to find out that truest person, I can share my deepest secrets with.
Amit ji, thanks a lot. I liked the virtual yellow line not getting missed by inches for myself. Thanks a lot for this virtual acknowledgement. Though the line is virtual in nature, but the pleasure given, is nonetheless than a real face to face comment or line. Hopefully someone else from FmXt will be lucky next time by not missing the yellow line by inches virtually.
It is a good feeling to have kids jumping around, breaking things, making mess all over , screaming loud and spreading joy. I hope you are enjoying a lot with your grand kids.
Amit ji, my kids were also off for couple of weeks during Xmas and what kept them busy for hours and hours were WI games (Mario Cart was the new one on board), Computer games, Nintendo DSL and little bit of home work. You bet ! I feel like throwing these gadgetries where no man has ever gone before.
We will surely wait for the next launch eagerly…..and we shall wait….
With lots of love for you in this virtual bucket till this wait is over…..and after as well

that’s a nice progrm..sonu does pretty well..too bad though he had to ask for claps for songs prior to 80’s..seems there was only young public to clap
thanx for sharing
Dear Big B,
I love listening hindi music, and I want the beautiful songs of your movie GAYAK… I don’t know why the movie and music were not released, but it has been a long wait….. and I just cannot wait more!
I want to get this music album…… so I would request you to kindly look into this matter…… there are thousand’s of people who are still waiting for songs of GAYAK, and we would be obliged to you if you release it.
So please do this favour for your fans and fans on hindi music.
Thanking you…
Regards,
Enigmatic

Dear Valorie Lynne Adams @ # 180
It was really very kind of you to have agreed to my request. With your wonderful translation, the reach of my poem has gone wide. I have copied your English translation in my diary with full credits to you, so that I could recite it to the non-Hindi friends also, if the opportunity comes my way.
And what a deep research on 108 !!! So far even I did not know all the six points of importance attached with the number as researched by you. I am very lucky that I am in touch with the intellectuals. I strongly feel that this bond established between us will remain forever with the Grace of God. Thank you once again and with warm regards.
Dear Jasmine Jaywant @ # 215
It was really a very great day for me that I got a reply from you also. Your prose has definitely conveyed all in a lucid way. Prose or poetry, if written from the heart touches the soul. I quite agree with your whole narration and that is why I have put question mark after the line :
Par kya man ke sachche, abhi bhi aaj ke bachche?
In fact I had composed the whole poem keeping in mind the ever astonishing reflexes of my grand son (son of my daughter who has just completed 5 years). He appears so shrewd at times even at this tender age that sometimes I feel that his innocence has left him too early. When I recited this poem to my daughter, she was not very happy with me because mother’s perception for the child is always pure. Now after reading your views, I feel that she was right to great extent.
Anyway, thank you Jasmineji for your kind response and honouring your promise. Otherwise a reminder was due !
Blessings and respects – Vishan Lal
Dear Anat Magen @ # 226
Thank you that you too liked the poem. I am really lucky because dear Valorie has publicised my poem again on this sacred blog.
With love and respects to one and all.

Good afternoon my dearest Mr Bachchan,
I do dope you are very well and enjoying your time with your grandchildren if they are still with you and in between work..
This big brother like technology issue you raised had heightened my curiosity to so much, you are cruel sometimes Mr Bachchan. I actually threw the discussion open to colleagues at work this morning. They reassure me it’s unlikely that my home is under surveillance; but deleted web and mobile content can be retrieved, with procedural constraints - if a formal investigation is sanctioned by the authorities. It’s conceivable and I suppose reassuring if the information is used in the correct way. We got carried away in discussing which alternative methods of communication we would use if we were to devise a conspiracy or something similar, and came up with a rather pathetic list of alternatives: homeing pigeons, messages in bottles, steganography (apparently a method of coding), extrasensory perception and the ultimate solution was, the good old fashioned letter! Direct, personal and utterly disposable; old really is gold sometimes!
Unsure what to say about the yellow line issue. It’s always problematic. I have expressed my views all along that interaction should ideally be to your discretion; if you feel like answering a particular comment or query then you should. Of course we are not here just for the yellow lines; we truly are here to share your brilliantly inspiring thoughts and wonderfully crafted words. And surely everyone would rather you relaxed in the little spare time you have than write out slips. If I have expressed grievances in the past it has been specifically content related, and each situation is different, but personally I love the workings of the genius mind in wider format and will always be ecstatically enamored with that! Thank you kindly for the overly generous compliment in yesterday’s slip. I’m convinced you were being ironic, but you are still very kind…
I do hope all the creative pursuits and other projects are coming along well. The big day for Rann is drawing rapidly near and excitement and nerves must be mounting for the entire team. You had left everyone reeling with your news debut, we are certainly ravenous to see you journalistic expertise in the future!
Incidentally, sources suggest you miss your 4 hour return drive to BB3 ‘so much’, you have signed for the next series as well!! Of course I refuse to believe it and will reserve comments until, or if you verify!
Back to work for me on this bitterly cold Monday. Just ten weeks until I head to holiday destination Goa and Mr Bachchan I really am counting the minutes!
Wishing you a lovely evening, I hope you are still relaxed and in wonderfully cheerful spirits.
Until another ‘DAY’I will leave you with…
My love and devotion and more
Jasmine

Whenever I have time I watch your movies and I appreciate your acting. I am going to start a chain of authentic Mexican restaurants in India, starting in Mumbai most probably near your home!

If you are available I would like to invite you for the opening of my first restaurant in march. Please give me your thoughts on this.

Dear Sir
Yoy are back to home it sounds good.
Everyone is worried for the YELLOW LINE and for you it is not possible to satisfy all of them.Everyday you are writing a letter to us so just give yellow background,this is the only way to give yellow lines to all of us. ——Just Kidding——
Love you

Hello Amitabh uncle!!

Dear sweet little Zainab,
I’m too shocked by the untimely demise of your cousin. I don’t have words to express my anguish or console you, but I know that you are a strong girl. I pray that God give you and your family the strength and courage to face this enormous loss. My love and support shall always be with you. Please take care.

LUV YOU.
Hi Amitji, i can imagine the sense of completeness we experience in the presence of loved ones.
yes we have opened ourselves to the best of technologies. when i see my nephew who is so versatile with the gadgets i am amazed. i feel kids of present age are exposed a lot which makes them vulnerable yet knowing. our children are mentally growing stronger…….emotionally, spiritually also let us move them.

Dear Mr Bachchan,
Today i write to you from my new Mac pro…gifted to me by my husband on my birthday which was on 31st dec.
My daughter Neha had written to you probably first time on ur blog to wish me…but she did not get the yellow line
Never mind. The fact that you write to your fans everyday is just amazing.
love,
Madhu.
Yes SIR..U SAID CORRECT THAT TODAY’S WORLD IS FULL OF MODERN GADGETS..
LOVE U

hello Amitji,

take care. love as always

Dear Amitji,
At last, i reached Boston a while ago..Now will be here till June. My classes wil only start by Feb 1, but i am here early, since my parents had enrolled me for a three week special leadership classes that starts from 7th to 28th Jan.
I feel sad that i could not see you or even get a yellow line from you..but its ok..As you put it, you really try your best to satisfy all but then there is a limitation. i can understand that you are a very busy man, and there are so many like me waiting to get a response. It is not possible to satisfy all FmXt. better luck next time. Sometimes i feel, i should have opted to stay at The Address itself in Dubai. It was because of my freinds who were keen in staying at Mayfair only, that i missed the opportunity to be more nearer.
I do not know how regular i can be from now onwards, but surely i will try my best, as there is so much love and affection here, and moreso in a silent way i can feel your presence too. I will certainly not want to miss all these.
Have you ever been to this part of the world. Its famous for many schools and is a great centre of learning. I wish i had the power to describe like you. The charles river and many building make it a beautiful place.
With luv n regards
Anand. P.
Sir,
Can you please tell me the name of ur movie which has the song ‘Niche Pan ki Dukaan upar gori ka makaan’
Dear all,
Regarding Day 621(i) 17th comment of Radha Bala. I don’t think we need to add anything further here. Amitji in his wisdom and maturity has responded appropriately and sufficiently.
Further comments simply add to her notoriety ..

Amitji, somebody called Sana has raised a good point. Nobody is God obviously but those who masquerade as evolved humans are 1000 times worse than an out and out rogue.

Hello sir,

I write this comment with all sincereity …but lest we be reminded whose blog this is we should use our time wisely and not provoke any untoward emotional outbursts. We all have our ‘common ground’ let us remember why we are here and we it is we are blessed in the first place. Let Mr B have the last word although coming to a defense is admirable let him speak for himself. *Peace Be With You All*
hello sir……

Hello Sir and my friends here…
Guess what!!!! I am just coming from the Grand and huge launch of Burj Dubai……it was really an out of the world experience……amazing, so many fountain shows, fire crackers, parachutes and many more……we can never forget it…..It was indeed a Historic moment for Dubai, UAE and we are witness of that, feels great……
We didn’t have any plans to go and see but was reading in all the Business Newsletters, i forced my hubby to go and see, all the restaurant, Cafes are fully booked, people were coming to check and you won’t believe there were 5 pages of Reservations diary, they were saying, if your no. comes we’ll call……for sure it could never come today……we had to stand for long, there was a huge crowd on the surroundings of Dubai Mall, Souk Al Bahar and Burj Park……we were actually tired of waiting….finally Sheikh Makhtoum arrived and innaugurated Burj, The Tallest Tower in the world……….it was very nice exp. all the pain of standing and waiting was gone to see that wonderful fireworks….
Have to sleep now, Aarav has just slept has to go to school tomorrow morning….
Good Night, love and Regards,
Vandana Bhatt, Dubai, UAE

i have just gone through those posts and have been delighted to read the undernoted comments put forward by you:
1. I CAANOT DIVIDE AFFECTION.
2. FOR ME ALL ARE EQUAL AND LOVED.
3. HERE I AM TO CONFESS MY WRONGS AND SEEK FORGIVENESS .
4. IT IS AT TIMES WISER TO BE SILENT THAN TO BE WITH SOUND.
5. LET ME WORK.
Captioned thoughts are extremely appreciable and i find them GREALY inspiring.
your detailed comments about krishna raj kapoor are commendable and are also very informative about the well-knit family.
BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THIS GRACIOUS LADY ON HER 80TH BIRTHDAY.
i also write to express my admiration for your candid answers to rajdeep sardesai interview.
we all are patiently waiting for screen awards.
PAA IS GOING TO CORNER ALL THE APPRECIATION. I DONT FIND ANY OTHER MOVIE WHICH HAS DONE SO WELL IN THE YEAR 2009

Sir,
I dont know should I write this mail to you or not? But writing to you as I believe you are the appropriate person for this….. Actually few days back I was watching a show on TV on old hindi movie music of great Naushad Ali…… Cant we have a Indian film museum for all Indian languages in Mumbai(It will be even greater if we can have for each state a state movie museum for all state capitals) ….. I wish to know your thoughts on this and just like to say , since you have lots of connections(plz dont take it in bad way !!) you can start talking abt it if you think ,it at all makes any sense.
Thank you!!!
Wish you and your family a great 2010……

And I be and remain with my love for you. I always with you, even then, when I cannot tell to you of it. Any your condition I perceive as my own and ready to divide his with you…. Yes, we are not one in this life, just necessary to learn to listen to those whom we love and who loves us.
I am very grateful to you for your love, gratitude, honesty and sincerity which you give your admirers.
Also I shall not get tired to you to speak of it.
For me you are not only the fine actor, but first of all the PERSON with the big soul and a greater heart…
Thanks you that you are.

Dear friend Ashwini,
HI, WOW !!!What a dream!!!
our mind always wonder us!!! you know some few days back Amitji met four members of FmXt..while mentioning the name of members Amitji write Karishma inspite of Kashmira…but while reading the post my mind read the correct name Kashmira..and it is true she is not Karishma but she is Kashmira Grewal. how strange no!!!!!!

oh you are back to philosophy! ggggggggrrrrrrrrr

Dear Sir,
when i read your blog, i am forced to remember your father lines in his four volume writings from “kya bhulun to sopan tak” about your proficiency in this field. he had written that amitabh writes very good letters but has left it due to prevalence of telephone.
you have proved that you are the son of 1st complete indian ph. d holder in english from cambridge

I had heard about your blog but did not get chance to read it untill today. I had written a letter to you when I was in school in1985 and you had replied to it with a One Liner “Concentrate in your studies, Dont concentrate in Movies”. I had taken your advice very seriously and never indulged in writting to any celebrity.
I am a Mechanical Engineer by profession. I am repeating what I had done 25 years back today by writting you again.
Wish you a very good healthy long life.
dear amit ji
i have seen “Paa” and found it awesome, however , I would like to suggest you some thing….. please ignore if you don’t like my suggestion.
Actually, inspite of being a good, happy and sweet picture many people are not inclined to watch it … as in their opinion this film must be filled with all pain, disease and tears… since the promos reflects only this . So they are preconceived in their views…. even I cannot satisfy most of my friends to go and watch it …. because they don’t want to spend their hard earned money in all “rona dhona”.
if you think fit then please introduce some scenes in promo related with AURRO playing with other kids, enjoying in class room, having fun with his paa, and all other humorous like scenes.
I just want that people should not miss such master piece.
thanking you

Hi Amitji,
When your reading this blog I was alone. My family members are out of city for few days. I read your first phrase
Lonely hours are the best hours of life…..
and I feel it very true and my inner heart says to write this comment to you.
Thanks for such a nice phrase.
Have a nice time ahead.

How did you manage to travel from Jalsa on Jan 4 2010 to Prateeksha Jan 4/5 2009. Amazing
