MUMBAI: Legendary Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan has started his personal blog on Bigadda.com, a social networking site floated by Reliance Entertainment.

The address of the superstar's blog is bigb.bigadda.com. By promising to share his views and reply to queries, Bachchan plans to become closer and more accessible to people everywhere.

Bachchan said, "bigb.bigadda.com allows me to express myself, share and reflect my emotions, thoughts, opinions and listen to what people have to say to me. It helps me to show them the ‘real’ side to my larger-than-life image that they see through media. It’s a platform which I control and share my own drama without anyone editing or interpreting my thoughts."

Reliance Entertainment president Rajesh Sawhney said, “Blogs are personal, online diaries of people where the barriers of restricted communication and word limits are broken. We are proud that an icon like Bachchan has chosen bigadda.com to express himself and connect.”
