Just In: Amitabh Bachchan Launches Blog On BigAdda.com!

After Aamir Khan made blogging a common household word with his insanely popular blog at aamirkhan.com Its now time for the Big B to join the blogging world! Yes I am talking about Amitabh Bachchan himself who seems to have said yes to “good friend” Anil Ambani’s Social Network BigAdda.com when it comes to launching his own blog.

Big B’s blog can be accessed on http://bigb.bigadda.com. Currently the blog just has two interviews given by Big B to two different newspaper. But the press release sent to us by BigAdda.com has this quote by Big B “bigb.bigadda.com allows me to express myself, share and reflect my emotions, thoughts, opinions and listen to what people have to say to me and show them the ‘real’ side to my larger-than-life image that they see through media. It’s a platform which I control and share my own drama without anyone editing or interpreting my thoughts.”

The layout of the blog has a banner of MR.Bachchan’s yet to be released Bhoothnath. In its current state this blog looks like a marketing gimmick and I will be surprised if Mr.Bachchan actually takes to blogging seriously. This may just end up being a way to promote his upcoming movies. Unlike aamir khan who is continuously active on his blog and has chosen to host it himself on aamirkhan.com (which ofcourse show’s his seriousness towards using blogs effectively.)

Nevertheless this is Big news for all bloggers as blogging is fast becoming powerful though its still not being executed as well as it could be by the indian brands and celebrities but atleast there is interest backed by some action. One can surely expect more intelligent attempts as time goes on.

  6. great news…welcome bigB to the big world of net bloggers..

  7. In a recent reality show , when BIG B announced the winner ashwairya he used “my Bahu” before the young winner’s child name , are we to believe that like all his supersitions he believes all girls named as ashwairya as is his Bahu’s . (beware theremay be thousands )

  8. i think ab should concentrate on his health. as he iz getting more older,the more older he goes the more his mind would be ripen.so plz concentrate on ur health.as we saw in khakee

  9. I think the older the better for big B.

  17. It is very rare to find human beings in to-days world who maintain a humble, humane quality and balance in spite of fame /wealth /hero worship etc
    we all get our opportunity,only a few see it as a stepping stone and work hard to achieve greatness while retaining the faith- it is all a gift of God

  23. Hello,
    Myself Brijesh Kumar, I like very much Mr. Amitabh Bachchan, But I think myself, It is publicity Stunt for popularity stability that is running on the way of blogging world that’s new name is bigb.bigadda.com

  24. Respected Bachchan Saheb
    Namaste
    I have almost read all the literary works of respected Babujee. It is my opinion that after `Ramcharitmanas’ `Mdhushala’ stands among top tfive works in Hindi literature. It is my earnest desire that you should sing `Madushala’ in your own voice & release its CD in market. This will be a great tribute to the great literary figure I am the greatst fan of both of you. In my personal library I have kept all the works of this poet of the millenium. Whenever false & basless allegations are levelled against you,I always remeber the lines from “Kya Bhulu Kya Yad Karu” –
    jo jaane pahchane hain jinohne kisi chetra me pramukhta pa lee hai jinhone kahi koi uhcai chooi hai unhi ko girane me samaj ki vikrit pravittian apne shram ki sarthakta dekhti hai.
    I am also anxiously waiting for your CD on`Hanumanchalisha’.
    With great regards

  25. AMITABH SIR,

    WITH ALL RESPECT AND GRATITUDE FOR WHAT U HAVE DONE TOWARDS
    OUR COUNTRY AND INDIAN CINEMA, ON BEHALF OF COMMON MAN:-

    I WOULD LIKE TO ASK A QUESTION THAT WHAT POWERFUL MEN AND WOMEN LIKE
    YOU WHO ARE HUGE PUBLIC FIGURES DOING AFTER THE NEVER ENDING TERRORIST
    ATTACKS ON “”"”INDIA”"”. DOESN’T YOUR BLOOD BOIL,DONT YOU HEAT UP
    OVER THE INNOCENT INDIAN’S DEATH.

    PEOPLE LIKE YOU SHOULD SPEAK UP PUBLICLY TO ARISE ANTI-TERRORIST SENTIMENTS AND RISE UP TO NEED OF THE HOUR.
    INDIAN COMMON MAN IS DEEPLY IMPRESSED BY BOLLYWOOD STARS.
    IN MY OWN OPINION I FEEL THAT PEOPLE LIKE YOU DO HAVE SOME RESPONSIBILITY AS PUBLIC VOICE.
    PLEASE GIVE IT A THOUGHT,’NOT FOR MY SAKE ,NOT FOR YOUR FANS’ SAKE,
    BUT FOR YOUR OWN “”"”MOTHERLAND”"”"”".

  26. Dear Amit ji

    I wonder at times what makes you get embroiled into controversies , i guess your age is taking a toll on you, you are a highly respected individual , your contribution to indian cinema is unquestionable why axing your own foot?? try and keep your respect intact which you have earned over the years,. I beg to differ that our maverick stayajit ray’s movies dealt with poverty well you had been in bengal for quite sometime very sorry to know that you have no facts and figures about the late ray’s works. well frankly speaking i have found your films quite average , sometimes you overacted too . well when you get boquets , brickbats will follow too. Pls in future be careful about your comments which i found too ordinary from an extraordinary person.

  27. because of lucky big B bigboss is becoming popular.

  28. HAPPY DIWALI & BEST WISHES FOR NEW YEAR TO AMITABH,JAYA,AISHWARYA & ABHISHEK.
