The star wished Kankana Chakrabarty, whose documentary he had lent his voice to. It's a special birthday for the 'fiery Bong'. Yes, that is what
Amitabh Bachchan calls this young Bengali documentary maker. And he is the reason why this birthday is special for her. On her 24th birthday, Big B actually took time out to wish Kankana Chakrabarty, through his twitter page and also on his blog.
"The 'Amitabh Bachchan' wished me! Can you beehive it? This birthday is special," gushed the girl who hits 24 today.
A part of his 'extended family' or EF, as he likes to call his fans, Kankana got in touch with the megastar owing to her documentary on violence against women, Women Prayed and Preyed Upon, in which Bachchan has lent his voice along with veteran director
Shyam Benegal. Right from those days, Big B has been showered praises on her. And last night, he posted on his Twitter page and blog, "And to Kankana ... for tomorrow 24th, her 24th birthday ... wishing all that is the best in life .. love and warm wishes!!" Kankana on her part, replied by posting, "@SrBachchan thank You SIR.. Thanks a lot.. Ahhh thank you..thank you ..thank you..thank you thank you thank you thank you..." The girl sure is over the moon and also posted a snapshot of Big B's tweet on her Facebook page.
The young director, who will be leaving for the States for a course on film making in January, also said, "He is constantly in touch with his fans through his blog. For him, his fans occupy a special place in his heart and he makes sure that he can give back to them, as much love as he receives."
