Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who has taken to blogging in a big way, has said his website is expected to be ready within a few weeks.

"I have just started blogging and enjoying the medium. My complete website is presently under construction by zapak.com and shall soon be presented to the world. Till then I shall continue blogging through 'Bigadda'," he wrote in his blog.

"Work is in progress on my site and it should be ready in a few weeks time. Once that happens, I shall blog from my site. A fine team of people are working on the site and I am happy with the progress."

He said Zapak and Bigadda are service providers and he was happy with the way they have been handling his blog and in the building of the website.

Bachchan scoffed at speculations that he is being paid to blog on 'Bigadda'. "This is my personal blog, why would I take money to blog on my own site. I get paid to work in movies, TV shows, commercials, not to express my personal views to the public, that too on my own platform," he said.

He noted that Bigadda is an Anil Ambani group venture and his "personal relationship with Ambani has got nothing to do with his ties with Bigadda.

"Bigadda is a medium for my blog. They are the service providers; my own technical knowledge being low. I am not the brand ambassador for Bigadda, I am merely using their services till my own website comes up," he said.
