FilmiBeat
Megastar
Amitabh
Bachchan
has
sent
a
handwritten
note
to
Soha
Ali
Khan
praising
the
actor
for
her
"spine
and
spunk"
after
he
read
her
book
"The
Perils
Of
Being
Moderately
Famous".
The
debutante
author
took
to
Twitter
to
share
the
letter,
thanking
the
veteran
actor
for
his
words
of
encouragement."So
honoured
to
get
this
in
the
mail!
Thank
you
so
much
@SrBachchan
for
taking
the
time
to
write
this
to
me
-
it
is
such
an
encouragement!!

In
the
letter,
dated
January
9,
Bachchan
lauded
theactor
for
her
writing
skills
and
sense
of
humour."The
term
'spine
and
spunk' comes
to
mind
on
picking
up
your
book...
It
doesn't
matter
how
much
polite
and
self-deprecating
fluff
you
have
on
the
outside."
"Even
though
on
the
surface
you
are
sort
of
reticent
and
shying
away
from
the
spotlight,
your
genuine
and
funny
sense
of
humour
has
been
skilfully
portrayed
confirming
that
you
possess
a
steely
something
in
the
middle
that
says
'You
know
what,
I'm
actually
really
really
good
at
this,
and
this
is
what
I
can
do,
and
now
I
have
done
it'," he
wrote.
Published
by
Penguin
India,
the
book
hit
the
bookshelves
in
December
last
year.
Not
so
long
ago,
Soha
had
revealed
how
it
feels
to
be
'moderately
famous' and
she
had
said,
"There
are
pros
and
cons
of
being
from
a
famous
family.
There
is
so
much
security,
love,
and
warmth.
But
the
flip
side
is
yes,
there
will
be
comparisons."
"I'm
a
very
practical
person.
I
think
this
stems
from
a
place
of
security,
strength,
and
humor.
This
is
who
I
am
and
these
are
the
people
whom
I'm
related
to.
And
yes,
this
is
the
industry
we
work
in."
"People
want
to
know
what
is
happening
in
Kareena
Kapoor's
life,
they
are
interested
in
Taimur.
I
have
access
to
these
people
because
I
am
related
to
them."
"Yes,
it's
annoying
to
be
questioned
about
them
and
sometimes
it's
great
to
be
related
to
them
because
they
are
kinda
cool.
And
there
is
my
sister,
who
is
not
famous.
My
brother
is
very
famous,
and
I'm
somewhere
in
the
middle.
I
know
I'm
not
entirely
anonymous,
and
often
recognised
by
association."
