Mumbai, Jan 19 (IANS): Fans who had gathered outside the residence of megastar Amitabh Bachchan here were in for a double treat as the screen icon emerged from his home with his granddaughter Aaradhya. But the little one got scared!

Talking about Aaradhya's tryst with stardom, the 72-year-old said that the three-year-old was scared with all the fan frenzy around her.

“I took the little one out to meet the Sunday well wishers...apprehensive and wonder filled her little delicate hands and feet and mind...BUT...they are the sweetest gifts of the Almighty...and we are blessed to have them,” a post on his official Facebook read.

Amitabh also posted a series of photographs with his granddaughter, who can be seen clutching onto her grandfather's shoulder.

Fans gather outside Jalsa, Amitabh's house, almost every Sunday morning. The “Paa” star also shared a photograph of the Sunday ritual on micro-blogging site Twitter.

“But the best moments come with 'little ones' even though a bit apprehensive,” he posted.

Preity Zinta's fascination with 'true stories'

History lessons are often synonymous with being boring, stretched and dull. But actress-producer Preity Zinta seems to have come up with an interesting method to gulp down all the facts, and that's through watching "true stories" on screen.

"I love 2watch true stories. It's like a history lesson. Sadly these people changed the course of history but still struggled personally," the actress tweeted.

The actress, who was last seen in the 2014 release "Happy Ending", also heaped praise on Hollywood movie "American Sniper", which is based on the biography of American army sniper Chris Kyle.

"Loved how 'American Sniper' showed the personal side of war and how it affects people emotionally...Eventually there are NO winners in war," she further posted.

Starring Bradley Cooper, the film encapsulates the internal as well as external turmoil of Chris, starting from his childhood right through his marriage and short career span that lasted only four trips to the strife-torn zone in Iraq.
