Indian megastar Amitabh Bachchan noticed something very interesting on his last visit to Paris - a restaurant named Gandhiji!

"Hoardes of Gujaratis living here are running restaurants - one, oddly named Gandhiji! But 'Gandhiji'? Oh, brother! Try opening an eatery in India with that name," Amitabh posted on his blog www.bigb.bigadda.com.

Amitabh is enjoyed his trip to Paris where he shot for fashion and lifestyle magazine L'Officiel.

Another observation he made was that "the French everywhere seem extremely hospitable, more friendly and polite than their rumoured bad temperament from earlier years, to tourists and visitors."

"There is a certain strength in being Indian and being identified with India. And there is a greater acceptance when one mentions nationality," he added.
