Mumbai, Dec. 28 — On his personal blog, Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan took a moment to muse on why an artist must keep refining his craft in pursuit of true satisfaction.
Bachchan explained that “when work calls, it calls for attention and presence … for committed timelines to be accomplished … and the acceptance at the end of it all … ‘job done’ is and was a phrase one picked up from the land beyond shores … it completed every aspect of the nature and circumstance needed to reflect a given situation in its ‘done’ avatar … but on the side of its completion comes the reflect … was it done to its best … was it delivered to its best … shall it be accepted as its best … and troubled by such, the mind in its restless reform urges the need to better it again … and perhaps again … to its required objective in satisfaction.”
He noted that the drive to improve doesn’t let one rest, even after receiving acclaim. “’job done’ a couple of days back … but troubled by its space and need for improvement brings the sleeping soul back to the desk of the most desired instrument of the times … the one that embraces such, right now … it be a normal trend to receive praise and a definiteness of appreciation, from the ‘others’ (ah ! we dwell on the word again) … the self notwithstanding, belies your receptive honour,” he added.
Highlighting the importance of self‑evaluation, Bachchan wrote, “your own silent assessment may be advised for personal perfection … though ‘perfection’ be not accepted – who are we to give guidance and acknowledge to such … it would reek of self contained imagery, often undeserved.”
