On 1 April (2013) the Big B’s fans woke to the startling confession on his blog that he would henceforth seize to write the blog, thereby ostensibly drawing a curtain on his 5-year association with his “extended family”, the regular readers of his blog. Now it is revealed by the Big B that the entire ‘adieu-blog’ idea was an elaborate prank. Says the Big B, “Yes, it was an April Fool’s joke.” Apparently it was Abhishek Bachchan’s idea to pull this startling prank However, the Big B informs me that the prank was entirely his own idea.
