Amitabh Bachchan‘s stardom is surely unparalleled and one hardly sees anyone who has been able to match that. People call him a living legend and has fans in large numbers all over the world. The superstar also makes sure to meet his fans at every possible opportunity, but Big B’s latest blog post suggests how he is well-aware of the short-lived nature of life. Bachchan follows a ritual of ‘Sunday darshan‘ since the last 42 years where he greets fans who gather outside his house and meets them every Sunday.
After this Sunday’s meet-and-greet, Bachchan wrote a very poignant blog post about how short life is and how stardom will eventually fade. He also spoke about how the face which people recognise now, was a different face in another lifetime. He wrote, “the last thoughts on the Blog last night spoke about ‘reflection’ .. this ‘sher’ sums it all up :
मैं तो ‘मुनीर ‘ आईने में तक कर हैरान हुआ
ये चेहरा कुछ और था पहले किसी ज़माने में”
Big B further added, “I await the call from the GOJ, on yet another Sunday .. and still wonder which face they shall relate to ; those that have given me so much time love and attention, despite the face .. !! I hear the cheers from below my window and comfort myself with hope .. but life and attention are short lived .. life withers and ends, attention withers and eventually ends too .. there is but one similarity – IT ALL ENDS EVENTUALLY !!”
Bachchan also spoke about the Ganesh Chaturthi vibe in the air. One sees more of it during visarjan, and Big B surely felt it as his bungalow ‘Jalsa’ is right across Juhu Chowpatty. He expressed, “The festivities of Ganapati have begun and the might and care of the mighty saviour are prayed upon for HIS blessings .. may HE guide us all on the path of peace and accomplishment .. and bring the years of life with the abundance of happiness .. for happiness is the infinite eventual..”
He concluded by saying, “The cheers were genuine .. the well wishers on their way either to ganpati Poojan by the sea .. or returning from it , so there were numbers .. but the enthusiasm was most valuable .. it changed many a face .. including mine .. ! the ‘sher’ 👆🏼 notwithstanding..”
On work front, the actor is currently shooting for the new season of ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati‘. He was last seen in ‘Kalki 2898 AD‘.
