New Delhi, Dec 18 : Megastar
Amitabh Bachchan
misses the unrestrained and carefree days of youth when he used to go
for frequent 'chaat' sessions and for drives with friends after bunking
college without worrying about anything.
"The excursions with
mother to the Bengali Market for the most delicious 'chaat' in the world
and the sweet meats. The 'parathe wali gali' in
Chandni Chowk, the mad
drives during college hours with our gang of class bunkers to the
excavations and the ruins beyond Qutub Minar and Tughlakabad," the
69-year-old, who did his graduation from Delhi University's Kirorimal
College, posted.
"The winter sun in the afternoon, the fire place
by the night, ghost stories over new year and just the coming together
of family and friends wrapped around in warm blankets by the burning
embers!"
The actor feels such adventure "is gone now".
"Such
adventure, such simplicity, such trust ... all gone now. We slept at
night with our doors and windows open, the gates never shut, even when
we were out in the lawn or on the roof top, for those were the regions
that were the coolest. No security no guards, just a carefree life ....,"
Big B wrote on his blog bigb.bigadda.com.
"And now just before I
have come up to write to you, each door checked and double checked, each
window closed, locks and security personnel alerted, Shanouk (his pet
dog) in vantage post, phones and alarms by the side, incessant noise on
the streets of traffic and people."
