Gulzar honours Ghalib again
Remember the television serial on Mirza Ghalib that Gulzar made in 1988? 20 years later Ghalib's memory remains as strongly imprinted on Gulzar's mind as ever. Proof of it lies in the fact that on Sunday, December 27, on the occasion of Ghalib's 200th birthday, Gulzar flew down to Delhi to participate in the annual candlelight march in honour of the peerless poet. Says Gulzar, "It's an annual ritual started by Pavan Kumar Varma who has researched intensely on Ghalib. Every year on Ghalib's birthday, we Ghalib followers march with candles from the Townhall in Delhi to Ghalib Miyan's home at the Galli Qasim Jaan in Chandni Chowk." Vishal Bhardwaj who was also in Delhi was expected to join the March. Says Gulzar emotionally, "Remembering Mirza Ghalib on his birth anniversary is the least we can do. Do you know his house had been converted into a coal depot until Atal Bihari Vajpayeeji stepped in to rescue the monument from doom? Now Ghalib's home is a museum and a shrine which we visit every day on his birth anniversary. If it wasn't for Ghalib, I wouldn't be a poet."Amitabh Bachchan to read news on national television
After playing Auro from Paa in a number of off-screen events and campaigns, the Big B will now assume the personality of Vijay Harshwardhan Mallik, the media commentator in Ram Gopal Varma's Rann, to appear on December 30 (today) on a news channel to do a year-end round-up of activities. "And we aren't just talking about entertainment-related activities," marvels Rann's co-producer Sheetal Talwar who was present when Mr Bachchan, in what would rank as the last in a chain of firsts, became the first actor from anywhere in the world to go on national television as a news anchor holding forth on events of the year from the world . "And it was events from the world of global politics. Mr. Bachchan just took over the television space as though he had done news analysis all his life. It was an amazing experience," says Talwar. On Thursday night, we'll hear Mr Bachchan talking on roughly 6 global issues of 2009: Indian national politics, terrorism, cricket, swine flu, recession and Obama on an hour-long segment. This would be the first of several media-related activities that the Big B is scheduled to participate in before Rann releases. Apparently, he intends to assume whatever character he plays in his forthcoming films and promote the film as the character rather than 'Amitabh Bachchan'.Spanish La Liga Weekend Preview
