SoggyCornflakes - Bollywood

A few days ago, I failed to report that Abhishek Bachchan was accused of slapping a spot boy on the sets of Drona. Supposed eyewitnesses say that Abhishek was acting like a diva on the sets, demanding that the spot boy fetch things from his car, make his tea and do menial jobs. Later he told the boy to put off a fan (dunno why, since I'm pretty sure that India is scorching) and when the boy didn't do that, Abhishek lost his temper and slapped him. The source continues to say that the boy then quit the set because he was so hurt and insulted. You know what he should have done? Threatened to press charges.

Anyways, now Amitabh Bachchan has come out on his blog to say that the story is a load of crap and Abhishek would never do such a thing.

"Abhishek does not have the ability to strike a fly. He does have the ability though to attract incongruous and totally incorrect press. There has been absolutely no such incident on set. It is a fabrication of the highest order."

He carries on to say that there is a conspiracy plot where the media has set itself out to malign him and his family. Um, in a way that's true, but that's true on any celebrity. They will have fans and not fans and people who purposely go out of their way to make up stories to make them look good or bad. Either way, I doubt the rumour-mongers have anything personal against the Bachchan's, it's just a matter of selling the magazine, newspaper or bringing the traffic onto a website. "Abhishek Bachchan lashes out against an innocent lad" sounds way more juicy than "A story which was never a story".

I, on the other hand, am a responsible blogge--- HAHAHA, nevermind.
