The galaxy of stars have descended on the blogging world. Yes, that’s the new bug that has bitten Bollywood. Tired of the media making up stories and twisting facts, Bollywood stars have taken it upon themselves to establish direct communication lines with their fans. Blogging is their chosen platform.
Aamir Khan was the first to set foot on the blogging world and has his own blog. Aamir’s blog is very popular and has several hundred fans visiting and leaving comments each day. With the Aamir-Shahrukh dog controversy, Aamir has managed to drive lot more traffic to his blog. Guess the stars have mastered the art of publicity really well – by hook or by crook is the principle that they follow without fail.
Fascinated by the power of blogs, the next to make entry here is none other than the Big B himself. The Big B states that he is still getting familiar with the new medium and will get better in the coming days. He says that there are over 500 comments that he receives on his blog each day. I guess when you're a star you don’t need SEO and other techniques to drive traffic to your blog.
Next in line, actor Salman Khan has been so excited about his role as host of the game show “Dus Ka Dum” that he just can’t stop blogging about his experiences. Rumors say that even Darsheel Safary is getting ready with his very own blog site and that’s the way he plans to keep in touch with his fans. Guess what we regular bloggers would do with the stars turning bloggers one by one?
