Every individual in their life wants to experience the day which they can tag as the most memorable day or the golden moments. Fortunately I have also experienced that day very recently.It was a day in my life which I dont think I can forget even after several rebirths. Rather I would not want to even. That day was 11th october 2011.
I am a die hard , huge, crazy fan of big b. I idolize, respect and love this persona. He comes 1st in my life and then any other secondary persons. People who are his true fans are my friends.
My sole dream of life was to meet big b and seek his blessings, as i have an aim to work with him in any of the creative field.On this date it got fulfilled.Every year on this date I send him letters and watch 18 hours television and switch every channel to get a glimpse of my GOD. But this year I got blessings from my God. Now I know what it feels to see GOD,touch GOD.
I would like to specially thank two people who made my dream come true- fb group (kishore bhatt and meena akbani), without you two I could have never done this. How much ever I thank you two it would be less. Through this post I would like to recall that special day(11th october 2011).
That day I landed mumbai airport at around 8.45 am. Every thing was decided and planned well between the fortunate lot of group members. At first we were supposed to meet at a place and then move together to JANAK, my GOD'S office. As per decision it went on. When the clock struck 12 pm we all (Me, meena aunty, kabir, divya,anthony,depal, my mom, vikrant,mayur,devang, anandh, sikander) started our journey for JANAK. That was the moment when I could not control the flying butterflies within my stomach anymore.We reached JANAK and waited for some time outside. I was so excited, till date I visualised the crowd in television but now I could see the madness of the people in real. After sometime meena aunty went inside and slowly she took everyone of us inside. Then it was the time for us to wait for our turn...
Finally the moment arrieved.We went inside this office room and waited for big b to enter.After sometime enters the tall persona-my GOD, oh my GOD!!!!!...That was the first reaction I had. I touched his feet and kept staring at him.Oh god what a personality!!! Then HE started the individual photo session...I was the second one to get the photo..i was literally shaking at that point of time. Then slowly everyone started giving their gifts to him...I also did the same...it was a great feeling, a feeling that cannot be expressed in so limited vocabularies. He was not left for a single moment, me myself didnt leave him...I hope that was obvious for a fan like me meeting her GOD for the first time.

Meena aunty gifted Sir the cd that included the poems and notes given by the group members and the EF's .It was a very touchy gift. When we were inside no one bothered to find out how long we were there. Everyone was so deeply involved with their God.This is a persona who still holds the capability to attract every group of people, every generation.No one can ever substitute this persona.Three aspects that India has and not other countries- Taj mahal, Lata Mangeshkar mam and one and only MY BIG B. He was so sweet to listen to whatever I said. He blessed me, He wished me for my birthday. What more should I ask for? He has a magnetic personality, with whom he attracts us and everyone present around HIM. His hands are like a velvet. His smile can wipe away any sad moment. It gives a different sort of happiness that everyone wants to expeirence once.
The time when HE was leaving I felt my everything was going away. I wish I could keep him always with me...but that was not possible so we started from there with many beautiful memories that will be cherised by me everytime, every moment.
After he left we ef's clicked some pictures in his office room and slowly we all moved out, had our lunch and then everyone in my hotel room, to see the cd together. Its an awsome work...it was awsomely crafted by meena aunty and instituted by kishore bhaiya. It was a touchy gift...thnaks again kishore bhaiya and meena aunty...
Above all it was a priceless experience of my lifetime. I am using simple language and not extraordinary ones because the experience itself was extraordinary, it DOESNT NEED LANGUAGE TO MAKE IT SO.
Love you BIG B....you are my everything...my guide ,my idol, my God, my everything...Hope to fulfill my dream of working with him soon....
Good and I appreciate your feelings for the occassion and Amitabh, And I pray you get more opportunities to meet him and interact.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you Kankana for experiencing such priceless & wonderful moments with Mr Bachchan and also for expressing yourself in such a beautiful way. It was nice to read ur blog and feel your joy & happiness. Hoping that u'll hv many more interactions with Mr Bachchan and also wud get a chance to work with him. All The Best and God Bless !..Nitin
ReplyDeleteKankana, Speaking about the LEGEND is a very hard task for his fans, you know that. Iam very happy for you from the core of my heart as you met the LIVING LEGEND, THE GOD.
ReplyDeleteYou talked about the Madness you saw in front of his house this year, this is a madness which occurs every part in the world for him. This madness is in heridity of his fans. We every year use to decorate the outside of the bunglow either PRATIKSHA or JALSA (JANAK) with flowers, garlands, baloons, streamers etc......then Band use to come to play the birthday tune and as well as some of his hit songs from the mornning.
As the time approaches the madness increases to a height which one cant imagine until and unless he/she is present there. Everytime at first BOSS call us inside the home and after we walk in the door gets closed after he waved at the enamurous crowd outside. Then he use to talk individually. After that he offerred us sweet and drinks. O god AMITABH BACHCHAN is asking us to have food in his house and everytime he asks "BETA AAP PEHLE KHA LO USKE BAAD BAAT KAARTE HAIN" this is too much boss, Can anyone eat while you are standing in front of him, he will stare at you and forget the ffod at any cost. Then he will say TASVEER LO, TASVEER LO.......this is AMITABH BACHCHAN....The people who knows him closely they know how down to the earth this person is, there are few people we saw just use this person like anything they just wanted a photograpgh with him and then after they sell it and use to say that I have pix with Amitabh Bachchan. I hate them like anything.
This is a very small space to discuss this Persona, If we try to discuss this man then it will take ages to end the discussions. Ask me, we have so many nights gone for just like this discussing him and his works. Now you will know that.
Let me tell you honestly I dont know about others but Iam very very very happy for you from my heart that you met him on his birthday, you will again meet him when he is in kolkata dont worry. Everytime you meet him you will feel NEW XCITEMENT, NEW THRILLS.
Most importantly, Show me one hero in bollywood who has this number of Fan Following in all over the world particularly at this age. The so called heroes who we have in bollywood let them come out with 1% of this madness by his fans, I would love to see that.
May GOD bless you with more meetings with him in the future with all of us.
you have described your whole experience of meeting Big B so beautifully...its almost like I was there with you. Well done, and congrats!!
ReplyDeleteDear kanks.....

Congos dear...beautiful snaps and writeup..could relate to your experience as even i had it...even now i can remember each and every detail as it had happened just yesterday..the smile had been on my face i dont know forhow long..just was sad that i didnt have a single pic holding him or hugging him...wish i could get a big warm hug from him...atleast you got it...this is a treasure more valuable than any other treasure in the world that no 1 can ever steal from us...
ReplyDeleteWow Kankana, It's always a joy to greet and meet the dream icon, those moments can never be erased from the memories. Congrats. But don't forget your promise, you need to take us for lunch once you get the chance to act with Big B...
