B&HGSG News: Big B Moved To Tears At 'Rann's Premiere

B&HGSG News: Big B Moved To Tears At 'Rann's Premiere
(NSI News Source Info) My Desk YYZ - January 30, 2010: Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who was in the capital to attend the premier of his latest movie Rann, said he was moved to tears after a thunderous applause by the audience in the middle of the film.
"I cannot remember it happening to me in recent times, nor in times past, an audience applause in the middle of my film, at the end of a scene or dialogue. But it happened tonight at the premier of Rann," Big B wrote on his blog.
Rann, which releases today, is directed by Ram Gopal Verma and sees Bachchan portraying a media baron Vijay Harshvardhan Malik who fights for upholding journalistic principles.
"A thunderous and prolonged applause at the end of a scene that I perform towards the end of the film, moved me to tears. And then when the lights came on the excited acknowledgement from an entire multiplex (not like the one in the Mall at Bangalore), the emotions kept becoming deeper and stronger," the 67-year-old actor wrote.
Rann depicts the rat race for TRPs in the growing electronic media in the country while giving ethics the go by and Bachchan admits he was moved by the genuine applause, which is rarely seen in today's times.
"The varied and different kind of cinema that we are all used to may perhaps never give occasion to a moment of genuine applause at the end of a given performance, but when it happens we accept it and allow the world to pass by. Perhaps it is not our culture or our ethics," he wrote.
The movie also stars Riteish Deshmukh, Gul Panag and Paresh Rawal in leading roles.
