Amitabh Bachchan's Blogging!

WOW!

When I first heard this, I thought it must be some fan masquerading as the BigB himself... But it turns out BigB has started a BigBlog!
Talk about Blogging going mainstream!

I was obviously curious, and checked it out... And its pure brilliance! With so much controversy surrounding him, and people slinging dirt all around, I can't think of a better platform for him to voice his side of the story, without having to bother with journos twisting his words and quoting out of context!

I love how he put Yamini Lohia in place (not a very nice place, but she had it coming!)
He also took on Shobha De, and defended his bahu (my beloved) Ash...

Blogging is THE best way for celebs to connect with their fans and clear out all the misinterpretations and controversies that the media stirs up!
All the power to you BigB!
Rock on...

Some Unsolicited Blogging Advice...

I know you're busy Mr. Bachchan, but maybe you should consider investing some time in thinking up slightly more informative titles than "Day 34 (i)"!

Also, the blog header is usually a small part of the visible page... Key words being "part of the page"... Maybe it would be a good idea if I could see at least the title (ahem) of the post without having to scroll down.

Also... Kudos BigAdda on getting the man himself to start his blog on your site!

The Yamini Lohia rebuttal quotes Animal Farm.

Are you sure that he is writing his own articles?

Abhay said...

I say that because of his earlier posts which are self-deprecating regarding the fact that masses treat him more than an actor.

There was even a post modernist article on that ToI the other day.

It sure sounds like he's writing it himself...
Apart from all the "reactions", I hope to see some expression of his writer/poet blood...
His dad was a brilliant poet!
