Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s Media Block, Rockstar Support: Tweet Diary

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s Media Block

The hullabaloo around Aishwarya Rai Bachchan‘s delivery is yet to reach its zenith, but looks like the press and the Bachchan have been preparing for it. Reports were being circulated that the Bachchan family had asked the I&B Ministry to block media news of Aish’s delivery. Ridiculous as it may sound, Amitabh Bachchan still tried to dispel rumours about his alleged clout. The amused senior Bachchan took to Twitter.com to clear his stand, “Absolute rubbish ! Firstly I have no such intention ever, secondly do you really think I&B would listen to me !?? No way baby !… And the message from the journalist of electronic stated : ” .. to respect ur family’s privacy n women’s dignity all tv news networks decided not to follow aishwarya’s pregnancy or delivery. Not a single line news till official announcement. No camera’s and OBs will be stationed at your place or hospital. Regards ..” So who does one believe ? The self proclaimed etiquette and decency of the electronic, or the dictat of the I&B Ministry ???” While both sides may be waxing eloquently, we’ll still wait for D-Day (no pun intended) to see how things go.

But we genuinely wish Aishwarya and her family could enjoy a little privacy in this happy moment of theirs…

Rockstar Support

Talking of camaraderie, we saw Mahesh Bhatt genuinely reach out to his fellow director Imtiaz Ali on Twitter. “Going to watch Imtiaz Ali’s ROCKSTAR at Gaiety (Bandra). I hear that the film’s openining is outstanding. Congrats to the entire team! Have to call Imtiaz after the show. How vulnerable a film maker is on the first day of his release. It requires courage to be an entertainer.” Nice to see at least directors support each other.
