Amitabh Bachchan flays attempts to bring down 'Unforgettable' tour

Bollywood mega superstar Amitabh Bachchan has accused a section of the media and the film fraternity conspired to bring down his much hyped ongoing "Unforgettable" tour.

"I am however shocked and covered in disbelief at being privy personally to a design by certain sections of the media and the fraternity to bring down this show. To kill it, to malign and write it off. This is shameful and disgusting", he wrote on his blog.

However, he has rubbished the media speculations that he was hinting at Shahrukh Khan , Salman Khan and few others.

Hitting out at the media, Bachchan said, "I rubbish their claims on named individuals in the fraternity who are behind the negative campaigning. They push through some more names on mobile. I rubbish that as well. At this rate they will run through the entire industry."

Meanwhile, there seems to be no end to Bollywood icon Bachchan's woes over his checked-in baggage.

The megastar, has lost his baggage once again -- the second time during his ongoing "Unforgettable" world tour -- while travelling from Toronto to Port of Spain in Trinidad by a Air Canada flight.

"The Airlines must love me, or my bags!" is the reaction of a bemused Bachchan after losing his bags for the 19th time.

Last week, he lost his entire baggage in transit from London to Toronto in a British Airways flight.

The Big B managed to get back his bags but with some items missing.

"Brilliant news! Half my bags gone again! And no its not British Airways this time. It is Air Canada!" Bachchan wrote in his blog.

Bachchan, who has a number of programmes lined up during the tour, is now facing a serious crunch of clothes.

"I am only aware that I have passed out in the clothes that I travelled in. And jeans and hooded top are not the most comfortable bedtime attire," he said.

"Because of baggage part delivery there is part compatibility in dress as well. Shirt from one, trouser from another and just one pair of shoe -- the one I travelled in," Bachchan wrote.

Commenting on the repeated assurances of the airlines staff, the actor says, "...And Sir, this time you will get all your bags..' and warmly shook my hand till it almost got dislocated... But you must know, the bags are GONE!"
