Is Big B paid for writing nasty stuff?

Reports suggest the actor is in fact making money by writing the blog

If newspaper reports are to be believed, Amitabh Bachchan is getting paid an astronomical amount for writing his blog. Mid Day reports that he has been paid Rs 115 cr for writing posts on Ambani-owned bigadda.com.

Needless to say Amitabh Bachchan has been giving the Ambanis their value for money. Ever since he's taken to writing on the internet, he has been in the news for taking on Shatrughan Sinha on one occasion, then A Ramadoss on another and most recently Shah Rukh Khan. [MUST READ: Amitabh vs Anurag vs Aamir] Bachchan has also hit out at his old 'friend' and veteran film writer Khalid Mohammad calling him 'Khalida', much to the shock and amusement of those in the know. Most people feel it is rather uncharacteristic of the reticent and politically correct Bachchan to make such caustic remarks about his colleagues and friends.

Now sad as it may seem, we'd say good in a way. At least the journalists are spared of misquoting… considering it's all coming from the horse's mouth.

You guys have lost your brain or its just the sheer pressure from your big bosses to keep writing any crap you can find for amitabh bachchan. Wish in india, we had the stronger law for sueing media for defamation. Mid-day paper is not selling too much after big b started the blog. But they have certainly sold themselves for cheap publicity, and it seems like buzz18 and ibn you were supposed to be different from other news channel/media, but it seems like you have thrown out those priciples in the dustbin, and you also have become the part of this crowd.. Keep up the good work... And do i need to tell you that, you need to do some investigation in finding if mid-day claim is right or not. Boooooo!!!!!
