Amitabh Bachhan, the name itself carries so much weight in it (sorry trie to literally translate hindi, naam mein kitna vajan hai). couple of days back was Big B's birthday, 64th birthday and he still is the most popular, respected, admired actor in India. I wonder what makes him so popular and wanted even now. He is seen in TV commercials (almost every 2nd ad is his), movies, functions...everywhere there is Amitabh or his voice. I wonder where does he get the energy from (saathh saal ke budhe ya saath saal ke jawan?...)
When bachhan sahab was starting his career, it seems the all India radio had rejected him for his voice thinking that it was not nice, glad that happened, else mr bachhan's talent wud be limited to radio only.
Mr Bachan has a great personality. He does his job so well, that people dont even realize that he is doing his job. Its great to see the way he interacts with his fans and the contestants in KBC. he makes them so comfortable, and is so down to earth. He is so generous and would never say anything offesnsive. People ask him to dance, sing, recite a poetry and even propose to him. Wherever possible he fulfills their wishes and manages to be so witty, fresh and energetic even now. Am sure people watch KBC to see him and his interaction with fans and star celebreties (ofcourse some watch it to boost their ego that they are aware of the answers to the (simple) questions asked, and the contestants could not give the answers :))
He is a real legend. Fans wished him in so many different ways on his b'day some even made his pictures using thread and what not.

what do you want to be in life??
This was a common question asked in childhood, by teachers, parents, writing essays especially What would you do if you were the prime minister (i wonder why we had to write that essay every year) friends, parents friends, guest visiting home etc, especially when the final exams results were out.
I think very few ppl know what they wanna be and others are influenced by their surroundings and wanna be that.
Till my 12th grade I wanted to become a Doctor. Me and my best friend shared the same dream (though now she's a doctor:)) I was always influenced by my family Doctor, since he saved my life when I was a child, and my best friends Dad was a Doctor too.After the results I realized that, I am not made for becoming a Doctor thatz some genius's job. Then I thought I'll be a pilot, later I wanted to join the army (thatz why I joined NCC too), by then I was a graduate and just wanted to be a house wife(yeah that was what I wanted to do :)), but then computers came in to my life and I wanted to be a programmer for animation and ended up in QA.
Now I want to open a coffee shop...This evening was seeing a travel show on TV, and I think that would be an ideal job to do, visit new places, describe them, meet new people, their culture, enjoy the cuisine, get new clothes, shopping, talk to people and apart from that get a salary too....see I still don't know what I want to be in life.
I think in general people can be categorized as
1. people in life know what they want to be in life and achieve it.
2. for some people life just takes them to heights, its their luck and destiny
3. People take life the way it comes
4 yet others they decide something but then they take lot of turns as time changes
I think am of type 3 n 4 how about you??
Nevertheless, I would say whatever type you are of just enjoy each moment of your life.
