In his contemplative prose, Bachchan articulated the transformative power of cinema, inviting viewers to explore the uncharted territories of imagination.

"The beauty remains the same...the visions keep changing...Life relives in that hemisphere, a hemisphere that defies the realm that space exists in... stars , planets, black holes, galaxies and all...And the wonder and unanswered questions shall exist despite all that is being discovered in its landings and sittings and telescopic manifestations... not to forget the confirmed sightings of supposed UFO's by Flight operative Captains on aircraft .. a vision they are unable to fathom or decipher... And forever the talk that emanates is, we are not alone," he wrote on the blog.
