Big B posts invites on blog

With a controversy raging over his participation in a government function,Amitabh Bachchan has now sought views of his fans on invitations posted on his blog which included one by Narendra Modi asking him to participate in Navaratri celebrations and Rann Utsav later this year in Gujarat. Apart from the one by Modi,Big B also posted invitations from Maharashtra Rural Development Minister to inaugurate a drama theatre in Sangli and another to attend the All India Marathi Literature convention in Pune.

My dearest friends and my extended family,if I have done wrong,do point it out to me and I am willing to correct myself. The invitations,the acknowledgement of the work done,the acceptance of my desire that there shall be no financial consideration because it is for a national cause is there for all to see. I have nothing to hide. But I do seek input. Would I and should I accept the invitations that come in? Do put in your ideas, Bachchan wrote on his blog.

The 67-year-old actors presence at the inauguration of the second phase of Bandra-Worli Sealink last week prompted Chief Minister Ashok Chavan to remark that he would not have attended it if he had known that Bachchan,a brand ambassador for Gujarat,was there.
