పేరుప్రఖ్యాతులు గడించిన వారు (celebrities) తుమ్మినా, దగ్గినా, డోక్కున్నా కొన్నిపత్రికలకు వార్త అవుతుంది. భాషా విన్యాసంతో ఆ విషయాన్ని అద్భుతంగా రాసి అందమైన ఫోటోతో కలర్ఫుల్ గా అచ్చొత్తి అదే జర్నలిజం అంటారు. అలాంటి పత్రికలలో ప్రపంచ ప్రఖ్యాతి గాంచిన 'టైమ్స్ అఫ్ ఇండియా' ప్రముఖమైనది. విలువలు, వలువలు లేని ఈ ఆంగ్ల పత్రిక ఆధ్వర్యంలో నడిచే 'ముంబాయ్ మిర్రర్' అనే మాసాలా టాబ్లాయిడ్ పత్రిక ఫిబ్రవరి 18 (గురువారం) 27 వ పేజిలో (ఎంటర్టైన్మెంట్ సెక్షన్) ప్రచురించిన వార్త బిగ్ బీ అమితాబ్ బచ్చన్ కుటుంబాన్ని మానసిక క్షోభకు గురిచేసింది. ఆయన కోడలు ఐశ్వర్య రాయ్ బచ్చన్ హక్కులను పూర్తిగా మంటగలిపింది. వారి అభిమానులను నివ్వెర పరిచింది, గాయపరిచింది. "Pregnant Pause" అనే శీర్షికతో ప్రచురించిన వార్త ప్రకారం....ఐశ్వర్య ఉదరకోశ క్షయ (టీ.బీ.) తో బాధపడుతున్నది...అందుకే ఆమె గర్భధారణను వాయిదా వేసుకుంటున్నది. మగ పిల్లవాడు కావాలని అమితాబ్ కోరుకుంటున్నాడని కూడా పేర్కొంది. "Aishwarya Roi Bachchan has been trying to become mother for some time now. The fact that she has so far not gotten pregnant is actually a cause for concern for the entire Bachchan parivar,"
You make a series of allegations in the article, reiterated below as follows:
· Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has contracted tuberculosis of the stomach, a most serious disease
· As a consequence of this disease and its treatment, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is unable to conceive and carry a pregnancy, hence bear a child
· Amitabh Bachchan wishes for a grandson and is therefore gender prejudiced not only in his discrimination against the girl child, but also against women, in particular their right to be considered a primary heir of a family
I refute these allegations as absolutely and categorically false in every detail.
These allegations you base on the following information:
· The opinion of an undisclosed and anonymous intimate friend of the Bachchan family
· The mention of tuberculosis on Day 667 of Amitabh Bachchan’s Blog, that tuberculosis is known as the ‘rich man’s disease’
· There is no stated source of information for the allegation that Amitabh Bachchan wishes for a grandson
I counter the legitimacy of these sources with the charge of slander with malicious intent. The reasons for this are the following:
· The opinion of the undisclosed and anonymous family friend of the Bachchan’s is not substantiated or confirmed. At no point has the Mumbai Mirror contacted the family, directly or indirectly, to query this information and verify its accuracy.
· The mention of tuberculosis on the Blog has been cut and pasted out of context. There was no reference in the said dated blog to anyone in the Bachchan family having any ailment whatsoever in the context in which tuberculosis was mentioned.

That's why people call it as TOI-let paper. These paper preaches many things. But they don't have any values.
Yes. I read it Yesterday. They are feeling very bad for that article. One should have to oppose that typs of journalism.
It is the congenital defect of journalam to peep into the bed rooms and personal lives of celebrities for sensations and viewership and TRPs.But who has to do the same into the lives of the journalists as more sensational news come out out of their lives?The sadistic journalists of TOI and others deserve slapping with footwear in public for peeping into the personal lives of some section of the society.
An Observer.
i dont see anything wrong with mumbai mirror.
i indeed read it everyday for the gossip & useless snippets to kill sometime.
its catering to its readers.
why cry??
the same morons like big B, who is crying now, will pay lakhs and buy pages in these papers to show up their faces. dont you know the business that a TOI page-3 does?
if you dont know the market for such CRAP, then just stay away.
dont venture to put your idealistic journalist lectures on these SHIT papers. These are worse than toilet rolls.
yawn..
i agree with every single word 'yawn' has posted here
Very unfortunate reporting by TOI. TOI I think died as a journalistic publication long back. I hope Ambitabh takes the matter till its logical end and ensures that TOI pays for its misdemeanor.
Where are the feminist groups!! Are they keeping mum just because their ilk are in the media responsible for this kind of trash churned out.
However, these cine mob reacts very selectively. When the tabloids have been publishing lots of juicy gossip items about their personal lives, why none reacts?? They take it as a compliment or publicity item.
If all the people who are featured in the gossip columns and start taking action, these cheap tabloids would have gone out of circulation long, long back.
Shivaaji,
why take action on gossips?
you seem to be generations behind.
actors & actresses encourage gossip writers for their publicity
do you know what our Asin (sivamani fame) & genelia (Hasini of bommarillu) doing these days?
if you read mumbai mirror & TOI pages, then you understand.
