Big B's appreciation spree!

When the heart takes over the mind. When a rush of emotion penetrates the being. When a warmth pervades the flush on our skin. When dew shaped invisible capsules begin to swell under the eyes. When the hair tingles upon the arms and wrists. When words fail to form. Then can we safely say that we have been overtaken by emotion.

Failure, negativity, obtuse comment, wrongful accusation, suffering physicality, mental and real, anger and distress, frustration and anxiety and all possible manifestations of disruption and dislike, all pale in this uncontrollable feel of emotion.

And today, as I prepare to leave for the MAMI Film Fest event at the JW Marriott to receive their acknowledgement of a Lifetime Achievement Award, I cannot rid myself of acknowledging first, the outpouring of love and affection by the media within the past day.

The unveiling of the look for 'PAA' and the subsequent launch formally, of the promo took place last evening by Abhishek and the messages of praise have not stopped.

I dedicate this DAY to them - the media, for their spontaneous outpouring of affection and love and encouragement and thank them personally for giving us the strength in this venture, to believe in ourselves and in the conviction that we set, before embarking on this ambitious project.

The applause that you, my friends in the media, gave on the first projection and the subsequent times that you requested for the promo to be replayed, has been unprecedented. I have never ever received so many messages on any of my films by the media ever and I care not if it invades their privacy today, but I must let my little world of the FmXt know what you expressed.

If this is a transgression may it be so, but I must give it, its due.

The messages they keep coming. There are several more, and to them I say a quiet thanks. But I thought I would end with what Karan Johar had to say. It was so touching and warm and heartfelt I just could not resist.

Thank you all, in more ways than you can ever imagine..

I rush now for the MAMI function and the award..

Amitabh Bachchan

ps: seems like he wants to show all the appreciation :) wah! big b, kya use kar rahe ho apne blog ka!!

Eeeekkk posting positive reviews himself? Thats so low. Why doesnt he maintain a standard for himself, even a newcomer wont behave this desperate.

I was actually looking forward to the movie.🤔
