Sit down, Vidya!
Vidya Balan went to the premiere of Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na only to wish Aamir Khan and Imran Khan. She thought she would zip in, and out. Yet she ended up sitting and watching the entire film - that too by order. Amitabh Bachchan’s order. The story goes that Vidya, Amitabh Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor, Anil Kapoor and Juhi Chawla were sitting together in the auditorium and chatting, when Vidya said she had to go for a media interaction for Kismat Konnection. She got up to say her goodbyes when a baritone voice stopped her: “You can’t go, Vidya. You have to see the film,” declared Bachchan.
Vidya tried to reason with him, saying she was committed to go. Bachchan then asked her for the number of Kismat Konnection’s publicist. Vidya demurred, but he insisted that she dial the number. When she got through, Bachchan took the phone. “Listen, this is Amitabh Bachchan here,” he said. The girl was baffled and thought it was a prank being played on her by someone. He then told her firmly that he wanted Vidya to see the film and that she should cancel any media interaction. When the publicist refused to believe that it was Bachchan calling her, he asked her if he should dial her from his mobile phone. By now the publicist knew that it was Mr Bachchan and she had no choice but to do as he said. So, Vidya sat through the entire film. When contacted, Amitabh Bachchan admitted that he had spoken to the publicist and ensured that Vidya watch the film.

He is trying to be too bossy and dominating. And who is he to ring KKC’s Publicist???? She attended Amir Khan’s film’s premier, then she wanted to go for her own business, so, why did he interfered with her business????? Dear fellows, now you can twist this in a good way, but this wasn’t a personal visit, that he should have insisted someone to stay a bit longer, no she had some commitment to do. No, I didn’t like it because he is thinking that he is called SMALL B, or sorrrry, BIG, so he can do any big upsetting thing and still people must like??????????????? him???? Forget about VIDYA, as she is as calm as ice, so, this is the secret of her sweetness, but if it had been someone else, then I don’t know, how Amitabh would have been able to save his words. Ok, now Amitabh’s fans, start saying as much bad things as you can say about me, as I am ready & highly expecting this. And ya, a big thanx in advance.
