Big B’s manic Sunday

Big B writes that his day began with dubbing for his forthcoming release Bhoothnath. "It's been a satisfying day today. Began at 5 am - almost a couple of hours after putting my last 'post' to rest on the blog. Drove off to BR Dubbing Studio to start work on the left over dubbing for 'Bhoothnath'. Good progress was made. Dubbing is always the moment I feel the actor's creativity, actually takes shape, unless you are working on sync sound. To recreate in a purified and synthesized atmosphere in solitude the scenes which were done over a period of months, is a tough job. You are dubbing light scenes one minute and suddenly switching to a tearful emotional moment within seconds. And if the sound recordist is not satisfied, you will have to repeat it many times over till it sounds right. When in fact at the time of the shoot it was done in a single take and perhaps it was the only scene for the entire day !!"

Taking a break from dubbing, Bachchan headed to Kajol and Ajay Devgan to pay respects. "Stopped in between to visit Kajol and Ajay at the Shradha ceremony for their father, Shomu. He was a friend of the family from Jaya and my side and it was a sad moment that he passed away so soon. Indeed, when I was nursing my Mother in Leelawati Hospital, he too was there in the ICU," says Bachchan.

However, it seems it was Bachchan's evening engagement that was the highlight of the busy Sunday. "The evening was special. 'Sarkar Raj' unveiling at JW Marriott and a video conference with Abhishek and Aishwarya in Miami at the press meet. Remarkable moment. Enjoyed almost being with Abhi-Ash face to face to wish them on their first wedding anniversary. Blessings to them," writes the superstar.
And it wasn't just his Sunday diary that Bachchan took out time to write about. He also made sure that he responded to his fans that had been leaving him messages including one that questioned the family's desire to not work with Kareena.

"Connections from fans across the world surprise me. Rekha Rao felt I would never read her message. Now you know I do. Madhu Addanki wrongly believes that we deliberately avoid working with Kareena. Wrong. If there is suitable offer, there will be suitable desire to work together. And why just her, anyone from our fraternity. Farnaz Shama, from Pakistan has serious reservations on Abhishek marrying Aishwarya. Well, firstly it's too late for you to consider or remark on this issue. Secondly, as parents we did not choose for our son. Aishwarya was his choice and therefore ours now. She is my family, my daughter. You may differ with her in her work her profession, but if you will cast aspersions on her personally, I will defend her, fight for her and not tolerate this kind of talk, as I am sure neither would you, were someone to speak ill of a member of your family," writes the Big B.
