New Delhi: Amar Singh and Bachchan’s are at loggerheads today but there was a time when the veteran politician was very close to Big B’s family. They were spotted together at several events indulged in long conversations.
But destiny played its part and things went south between Amar Singh and the Bachchan family. Now, there is not much communication between the two parties.
Though, recently at an event, Amar Singh was quizzed about the Panama Paper leaks, role of Bachchans’ in it and his relationship with the filmy family.
Here’s what he said:
“I have made public vows in Bareilly two days ago. As far as Aishwarya (Rai Bachchan) is concerned, she has always given me utmost respect and Abhishek (Bachchan) has not uttered a single word against me. I don’t have any issue with Amitabh Bachchan. He actually warned me not to accept Jaya Bachchan in my political field considering her inconsistent nature and habits. But I did not adhere to his noble advise. He also warned me that she is very inconsistent in her ways so don’t expect any consistency as far as she is concerned. And subsequently, he sought an apology on her behalf and the matter was done and over. Thereafter, at Anil Ambani’s residence, at a dinner, a major squabble took place and that too on behalf of Jaya Bachchan and he became a party to my dispute with Mrs. Bachchan.
Please go and pose this question to Arun Jaitley, the agencies which are probing Mr. Bachchan or Mr. Bachchan himself. Leave me alone and let me live in peace without Bachchans and their name.”
It seems Amar Singh hasn’t yet come out of the ‘bad times’ with the Bachchan family.
Let us wait how Jaya Bachchan reacts to this piece from Amar Singh.
