Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who has a regular blog and millions of followers on Twitter, today joined social networking site Facebook to reach out further to his fans.
The 69-year-old launched his Facebook page, which will provide information about the actor’s upcoming movies, show videos, as well as exclusive pictures from his private collection.
“Facebook needs no introduction and I feel that my official Facebook fan page was long overdue. Facebook is a powerful tool that helps bring people together and allows us to embrace being a part of a larger community.
“I have been encouraged by the overwhelming reception to my tumblr blog, and this is another avenue to reach out to my fans, not only in India, but globally,” Bachchan said while launching his Facebook page.
In a video posted on the page, Amitabh Bachchan said it was another attempt from his side to come closer to his fans.
“I am now on Facebook.... Year after year, month after month, day after day, we just keep coming closer to each other. Lovely to have you here and we shall be seeing each other and you will be getting to know more about me and my daily activities through this wonderful medium,” Amitabh Bachchan said in a video message.

Though I live in Canada I am still very close to you . Mr Bachan you have contributed a great deal to Indian Cenima and you still look immaculate, but saying so its very important to take care of your health because we want to see you more. I was impressed to read that you were involved with the diabetic associations as well. That is very
impressive beacuse Diabetes is a rising demon in South Asian communitiy especially amongst Indians. I am a scientist with a Master degree in Phisiology Biochemistry with special reference to Diabetes.
I have a strong feeling your Campaign against diabetes in India would save millions of people from immature deaths, after all diabetes is defined as a slow killer and your voice can prolong lives of fellow Indians .Hope to hear from you. Thank you yours

Respected Sir,

With respect,
SRIDHAR IYER
I am big fan of you. From school life I saw your movies all most all and for that my parents are always worried about me. I like your angry image as well as your personality. Sir you are always in my heart and also my inspiration. My good wished to you sir and also your family.
No other cine star commands the love and respect like Amitabh
Bachchan. I dream he does something concrete for the general public
who have been watching him with all praise on the big screen. As per
Hindu directives the fourth stage life of a person should be devoted
to the service of mankind. After failure of Anna Hazare movement
against corruption, India is now awaiting another Anna Hajare to lead
them. I wish his name to be recorded in history not merely as a great
film actor but also as a great influential social reformer who
invested his immense popularity for the welfare of the entire nation.
