Big B posted about the same on his blog saying, ”Day after… the 8th… is the THINK Fest in Goa, and they invite me for a conversation with its leader and conceptualiser Tarun Tejpal, of Tehelka fame. This concept has grown in importance and stature through the years where prominent personalities from different walks of life, come along and participate in talks and discussions on topics that deal with every possible subject under the sun. The invitees have been drawn from all over the world and there has been great patronage.”

Last year too she had invited me, and we had all gone together to a glittering function at the Netaji Subhash Stadium, details of that visit had been posted on my Blog last year – Shahrukh and Katrina and Anushka were there too promoting their film ‘Jab tak hai Jaan’, Shahrukh of course being the brand ambassador of Bengal…”
