A Sweet Festive Indulgence: The Cookie Craze
For Amitabh Bachchan, the essence of Christmas was captured in the comforting aroma of fresh dough and special breads wafting from a warm kitchen. This year, his festival became extra special thanks to an irresistible batch of cookies. The actor enthusiastically ordered treats from #HouseofDoh and was utterly delighted.
He expressed his joy in his signature style, writing in a mix of English and Hindi. "Its Christmas time .. Merry Christmas .. The smell of fresh dough, the special breads, and the warmth of a holiday kitchen .. The cookies are DELICIOUS .. ordered some today from #HouseofDoh.. go for it," he shared. He added playfully, "cookie mangwaaye ke khaaye hai humne, kya bataye, mazza aa gaya abhi aur mangwaye rahe hai."
His love for the cookies was so profound that he placed another order immediately. Bachchan continued, "Khoob khaye cookies abhi abhi mangwa ke. Zabaan ekdum lalcha rahi, thoda aur mangwa ke. Chapad Chapad ka rahe hai swadisht…. Thodi dere main aur mangwaayengey." This candid admission revealed how the superstar, like many of us, found simple, delicious happiness in festive treats.
Unwavering Dedication Amidst Celebrations
Even while savoring the Christmas mood, Amitabh Bachchan's professional commitment remained unwavering. In a separate note, he highlighted the persistent pressures of his work life. He spoke about the anxiety of meeting deadlines and the conscious effort required to finish and deliver tasks on time.
"The delivery anxiety and the consciousness of time lines .. the work to finish on time and deliver .. an entire day spent in honouring that .. looks satisfactory, but still work to be done .. hence .. back to work .." he wrote. This glimpse into his work ethic showed that for the tireless actor, the show must go on, festive season or not.
