Tweet

Big B recently received the Lokmat Maanbindu Award 2011 from President Pratibha Patil for his contribution to the world of cinema and entertainment.

As per Latest Amitabh Bachchn Interviews, he said that, I consider myself extremely fortunate to have received this prestigious award, and I offer my heartfelt gratitude to Lokmat and to everyone connected with the Lokmat family.

And except my parents and education, whatever else I have been blessed with - recognition and public respect, my life partner and my grihast jeevan, my children, my grandchildren - I have received only because of the love, respect and honour I have received from this wonderful, benevolent land of Maharashtra.

I will forever be proud that I am a part of Maharashtra, because whatever I have received, whatever I am today, is solely because of Maharashtra and Mumbai.

This year, I had the opportunity of doing some good work in the field of art.



I worked in Aarakshan, the film that held a mirror to the nation on the state of education in India today, and the way several instruments of education are being established today.

I have spent 42 years- that's more than three fourths of my life- in the venerable land of Mumbai and Maharshtra.

I would like to say that today is my venerable mother's death anniversary, and I believe that this award I have received today contains not just your love and blessings, but also those of my mother. Thank you for this!"
