Today, the word Bollywood has become a craze worldwide, including the
West, and its stars dazzle and puzzle everyone. One of the greatest Indian
actors of our times is Amitabh Bachchan - the legend of India.
Bollywood has been associated with Goa from its early days. Many of our
Goans have played music in Hindi films during the last century and still
play, and a few have acted in movies, the latest among them is Varsha
Usgaonkar. Goa is also a hot spot for shooting Hindi movies. Many Hindi
movies depict Goan folk songs.
Amitabh Bachchan, the superstar of the Indian screen, who celebrates his
64th birthday today, October 11, loves Goa very much, and why wouldnt he
when the foundation stone of his success was connected with Goa? Yes,
Amitabhs first hit movie was BOMBAY to GOA; hence, he is grateful to Goa
and Goans.
Amitabh has been a close friend of the late Romeo Mendes and his wife,
Antonette. As a token of their friendship, Amitabh lent his voice for
Antonettes first audio cassette titled Jivit Ek Sopon. The introduction
of the audio cassette begins with Amitabhs following dialogue:
AMITABH BACHCHAN: Hanv, Amitabh Bachchan, tumchea mukar haddta,
Antonetachi poili Konkani cassette Jivit ek Sopon (Life is a dream). I
wish Antonette all success. Hanv, Goa zaite pavtt pavlam. Goa ani Goencho
lok mhaka ekdom boro lagta. Dev Borem Korum.
(I, Amitabh Bachchan, present Antonettes first Konkani cassette Jivit ek
Sopon (Life is a dream). I wish Antonette all success. I have been to Goa
many times. I like Goa and Goans very much. Thank you.)
