I had intially dismissed a comment (as Grapes are Sour) made my Nana Patekar that Amitabh Bacchan cries if he does not see his photo appear in the Press even for a day.
Now this news article of yours only proves that Nana was RIGHT!
With due respect to great actor Amitabh, please remember the "Law of Diminishing Returns" shall soon be applicable to You.

A Special Correspondent |Sajjad Hussain. is an idiot to the core. and definitely not and AMitabh fan and trying to create and issue out of nothing. AMitabh has got biggest fan base in in India Imagine if they stop watching movies of Shah Rukh Khan,Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan, These start would not left any films to work even. Rediff is losing its' sense day by day and woudl be soon outclassed by website sike NDTVindia.com etc.The quality of article is getting worse day by day. Bollywood adores / supports Amitab or not, he is a fighter and surviver. He dont require anyone's support or promotion(SRK requires). He has seen so many ups and downs and always a winner. Greatest actro of all times. Cheenikum is the biggest example of his superiroty on acting skills. Industry needs his support. Box office vouches for that. Let SRK come out of Dharma banner, he will come to know his standing in the market. He has attempted Don, the result is big zero. KBC went off the air abruptly. SRK is no where near Big B..
Actually there are 4 member in the family, & all of them are BIG stars & of course Amitabh is a legend. So this is logical that SRK or HRITIK who want to be No. 1 in this industry, dont want to work in which this bachxchan family remain in leading rolls. On the other hand in their family, the bachchans now have a TRUELY Bussiness Mind person Aishwarya & she works always on DIVIDE & RULE. there is no doubt about that. So both sides want to rule and we all knows that 2 sword cant remain in one cover!!!

Talent..seriously..you think he is talented,he was the most sterotyped actor of his time..even before you saw the film you knew what you were going to watch..Naseerudin Shah was talented,Om puri was talanted, Anant Nag was talented, Girish Karnad and Amol Palekar and Faharukh Shekh were talanted..Amitabh Bachchan didnt become a superhero because he was talnted..its only because the lack of comptetion in mainstream cinema around that time..and since there was no such thing as multiplex cinema around the time when he was at his peak..Being a supar star doesnt necesserly means that one is talanted..if thats the case,maybe Shiney Ahuja or Kaykay menon or Irfan Khan will be suparstar today..Amitabh was a part of a lobby(Sippy's,Chopra,Mehera and Desai) exactly how Shahrukh is today..and thats how both of them became Superstar..not because of there talant

Chetan, I have not seen a better and honest analysis than this one. keep it up. You hit the nail right in the head. I fully agree with your list of talented actors and would like to add few names to your list such as Sanjay Kumar, Paresh Rawail.........etc. Amitabh is all hype........

thanks joseph..Amitabh was a mere fluke which lasted unusually long..a generation made him what he is today and we inherited his persona..not applying our individual opinion to it..amitabh used this to his advantage,commited all sort of atrocities and got away with on the basis of public sympathy.

Okay..first thing first..Amitabh Claim to be the highest Tax payer is false since he gets his tax Audited under AB corp Ltd..a Company that has been liquidated..!!Tax is levied on the earning-investments..there fore if you are paying through a company that belongs to you and that has been already liquidated, you always have a option of showing low earning and adjusting the figures towards paying off liabilities..taking the total taxable figures down..if you are honest they why dont you pay you tax individually instead of paying it through ABCL.
Congratulation Rediff. We all mediapersons know that Mr. Amitabh Bachchan has the great attention capacity. Most of the Indian loves Amitji. If you write about Amitji either positive of negative people read it. Media knows very well nobody star of khan jealosy mandli has no capacity to win hearts like Big-B. Zee Cinema run a Series of Bachchan's film 'Shanivar ki raat Bachchan ke Saath'. Now Set Max start 'Ab tak Bachchan'. This is the only proof that Amitabh jaisa koi nahi. Ok one political party's piththu are very busy to degrade Big-B's reputation. But we the people of India know each and every move of them. One politcal party's every cadre is behind AB and this is the success of AB. AB is one man army and nobody can stand with him. He give us entertain while political party divided us and we have 'India Angrej'.

Well media from a long time is after Amitabh. He is the only star who can bann media and still be the number one. He is the star who can leave films for years and then come back strong rising the top again. so media has a point to get angry and annoyed. Every move of the BAchchans they have critisized. whether it is going to the temple, or his sunglass or bentley, or his land scam, or his ailing mother or his sons marriage. And now when it seems these poor media reporting is bothering AMitabh, they go for such shameless biased reporting against the Big B. This is unfortunate.
Big B is a great actor, may be a selfish human being, caring only abt his family. He may have forge papers to prove himself as a farmer. But who in this 1 billion country walks different in spite of being rich. what abt our politicians, other film stars, players. how much they have done for the society. but nobody questions that. Bt when it come to Amitabh, the media, the government, the court, the police they jump on him to have a taste of his flesh. But this 65 years old, still dont need anybody for support, he is carring alone. cheeni kum is a small example

Try to write something more meaningful you morons.
Bollywood adores / supports Amitab or not, he is a fighter and surviver. He dont require anyone's support or promotion(SRK requires). He has seen so many ups and downs and always a winner.

Well the report is very much biased and if i am not wrong very much one sided. The report states Amitabhs downfall, where as, if box office reports are concerned he is reigning high with Cheeni kum and shootout of lokhandwala with so called new or flop directors. So like the SRK Amitabh dont really depends on the johars and chopras for a hit. Secondly Amitabh has praised his Abhishek for Guru. and whats wrong in that. Abhishek was excellent and all media praised him too. what if the same from his father. ANd if anybody is upset by that, then certainly they are not professional and freinds of the Bachchans. In Dhoom 2 the director of the movie wrote after its release that Abhishek is finished and this kind of comments are dengerous and irresponsible and so if Amitabh defends his son then whta is wrong in that. Rediff stated Hritikh as the highest tax payer which amitabh challenged claiming his contribution to be the most. He has guts to shout for the right no body contradicted that, so where is he wrong. I think This kind of baseless reports will not bother Amitabh or Bachchans. this is a kind of forcefully written baised display or wrong facts may be please certain section or handfull of Film industry people. The reporter should be given awards for his imagination. But the bottom line is that even at 65 years AMitabh can turn crowds and critcs with a cheeni kum or shoot out. anybody in hindi film industry can do it?
