So lets give him his due and wish him all the best to carry on the good work.

a graceless fall. But, so
what? He truly rose like a
Phoenix from the ashes or
whatever remained of his
career and outdid all the
current bratpack with the
sauve style that only he can
display. The new generation
realized the big master with
awe. This had given rise to
so many copycats. But then
imitation is the best form of
flattery. You want more
proof for his candidature?

Name:Radhika Bhagavathula
Email:radhikab@rediffmail.com
Nomination:Amitabh Bachhan
Reason:In the history of the small screen ever, it was the first time that such huge hungama was created due to the show KBC that Amitabh ji is hosting. It gives relief and enjoyment to millions of people who are tired and frustrated by running and running after money in this fast mechanical life that is prevailing now and the KBC show is what they wait for to bring some relief to them in this hectic scehdule. It is really a honour and the show is worth praising with such magnanimous host because of whom the show is a great success...and I think this is the biggest happenning event of the year. Apart from the Star of the millenium honour being given to him I think Amitabh ji is the Rediff Indian of the Year too..!!

Nomination:AMITABH BACHAN
Reason:1) Gave a good comeback in TV serial if not in movies.
2)His show KBC is the best money game show & has the greatest viewership.
3)He brought craze and popularity of more money games.
4)Even in schools,colleges & various other education institutes professors asks students "LOCK KAR DIYA JAYE" or "BILKUL SAHE JAWAB".
5)Amitabh has changed the concept of quiz by asking participants to take their own time & he gives great respect to them.
6) He speaks pure Hindi and people all over India had started copying him and speak shuudh(pure) hindi.
7) All type of people viz,
small children,teens, office goers,teachers,filmi people,
train passengers etc speak about KBC & AMITABH'S style of presenting this show.
8) Serials like SDKC, CPK etc came back with the same idea.
9)Amitabh stood the best presentor & nobody could give him competition. Even Shekhar Suman or stars like Anupam Kher & Monisha Koriala couldn't impress audience the way Amitabh did.
10) Many famous serials like Ek Mahal Ho Sapno Ka etc changed their timings and clashed with the timings of KBC but still this KBC remained at no 1 spot .
11) Many people see KBC only to see & hear Amitabh.
12) Media, newspapers also speak a lot about KBC & AMITABH & pass their comments or jokes on it.
These are some reasons for which I feel AMITABH should be voted as the REDIFF INDIAN OF THE YEAR. In short
" AMITABH KO LOCK KAR DIYA JAYE" because he has locked the hearts of all Indians.

AB Vajpayee, even though his performance is not as good as
expected he still is delivering. I believe he can do a better job given a clear majority to BJP.

a marvellous victory instead
of the betting-scandal spread
deeply in the Indian Cricket,
but such an aggressive skipper
who can lead from the front &
take aggressive & dare-devil
decisions for the benifit of
the team.First time after so
many years India had got a
superb captain with positive
attitude who has the ability
to bring out the best of his
co-players and successfully
leads India to perform
well and unitedly.Every
opponent team has admitted
his positive & agressive
attitude that he had power &
mentality to throw the
challenge to them...just the
'Do until die'or'Fight until
reach the goal'or'No negative
but always Positive'.That's
why I think he is the Rediff
Indian of the Year'

Reason:Year 2000 was another year where all Indians from different walks of life showed their poor sense of values and absolute lack
of character, be it politicians,(from whom we expect nothing) sportsmen can we forget the pathetic performance at the olympics)
sachin tednulkar was one sportsman who dsiplayed his
talents both on and off the field.
The fact that he withstood all
temptations and was willing to step down from his captaincy, showed he is of different class.
He is my choice for Indian of the year.
