Bachchan’s Blog Uses Lift Doors Metaphor to Motivate Persistence

Mumbai, 19 September – Amitabh Bachchan, the legendary figure of Bollywood, posted a reflective piece that employs the everyday scene of an automatic lift door to convey a larger life lesson. He noted that the door automatically begins to shut after a short pause, but a gentle interference—like a fingertip—can immediately reverse its motion.

According to the star, this simple act illustrates how a modest prayer or a small effort can disrupt a closing opportunity and keep possibilities alive. He urged readers to stay active, keep praying, and continue the chase, assuring them that persistence will eventually cause the ‘door of destiny’ to open.

Bachchan also reminded the audience of his responsibilities as the host of "Kaun Banega Crorepati" season 18, the Indian adaptation of the famed British game show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" First aired in the year 2000, the quiz series has become a staple of Indian entertainment, known for its multiple‑choice questions, four answer alternatives, and lifelines that provide strategic help.
