Big B takes a break in Goa (Movie Snippets)

NEW DELHI - Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan decided to take a sudden sabbatical in Goa and is thoroughly enjoying his stay there.

It is a boon at times to just spring out of circumstances and travel to just anywhere! I just did that and find it most invigorating to be able to not be specific or scheduled. And Goa it is, Amitabh posted on his blog www.bigb.bigadda.com.

The 68-year-old says he loves Goa.

Quiet and peaceful, green and warm, sea and sunshine! The silence whispers gently in the ears, time takes time to pass and nothingness has no value at all, he wrote.
