New Delhi, February 17: It was a night to remember for Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who found it a “haunting” experience hearing the heroic stories of the common man’s valour at an award function.
In a ceremony held by by IBN 18 Network in the capital on Monday, Bachchan felicitated 14 Citizen Journalists for their outstanding reporting.
And the 67-year-old screen icon, who recently donned the role of a media baron in ‘Rann’, was at loss of words after hearing the courageous stories of the awardees.
“Last night’s function at CNN-IBN haunts me still. The conviction and strength of those who have dared to fight for their right, for justice, for level playing ground. These men and women have dared to expose those who sit in power or position… They who have all risen from meagre means and become the voice of an entire nation.
