Mumbai, March 2: Megastar Amitabh Bachchan won’t mind being a journalist in his next life – just for the freedom of speech that a scribe enjoys.

“Next life? A journalist for sure! Shall have the joy and liberty to express and speak out, without fear of any repercussions,” tweeted the 70-year-old.

The actor is currently in Bhopal, shooting for Prakash Jha’s “Satyagraha”.

“Prakash Jha shooting film at a speed that is rather astonishing! But best is that he knows what he is doing… most directors do,” he added.
