Reportedly, things are not going great between once best friends, Amitabh Bachchan and Shatrughan Sinha. The two who were inseparable at a point in their lives, don’t share cordial vibes any more and the reason for the same is touted to be Shatru’s and Jaya Bachchan’s political rivalry and Bachchan’s decision to not invite the yesteryear's superstar to Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s wedding!

 

As known to all, Aish and Abhi’s wedding was a very private affair and except family members only the people very close to both the families were invited for the nuptials! Shatrughan and Amitabh shared a great bond and the latter not inviting his bestie for his only son’s wedding didn’t go down well and it seems Shatrughan is still holding on to the grudge.

 

As per reports in IBT, the Bachchan family wanted to keep Aish and Abhi’s wedding a very intimate affair and since they could not call everyone, they had sent a packet of sweets to those uninvited. Opening up about it, in an interview, Abhishek had said that the decision to keep it a private and intimate affair was made because of his ailing grandmother, Teji Bachchan, who was in the hospital at that time.

 

Since Amitabh could not invite Shatrughan, he had sent him a packet of sweets, but the latter sent them back. Revealing his displeasure, Shatrughan Sinha shared that he considered Amitabh his close friend and hence found it very insulting when he just sent sweets without even giving him a call. 

 

Sinha had told Mid-day, "Jab bulaaya nahin phir mithai kis baat ki? Amitabh had said those who had not been invited were not his friends in the first place. I won't be put in second place and embarrass him by accepting the sweets."

 

Without mincing his words, Shatru had lashed out at the Bachchans saying, "The least I expected was that either Amitabh or someone from the family would call me up before sending the sweets. When that was not done, why the mithai?"

 

Talking about who all were not invited, an infuriated Shotgun had said, "Hema Malini was not invited, neither were Dharmendra and Ramesh Sippy. Half of the industry that has stood by the Bachchans through thick and thin. All of us are currently in second place as Amitabh is being guided by a misguided missile called Amar Singh."

 

According to a Pinkvilla report, Amitabh Bachchan had later said that those who couldn't understand their situation and why they were not invited to the wedding, weren't his friends in the first place.

 

Abhishek Bachchan on Koffee with Karan had said that he didn't feel angry or surprised by Shatrughan Sinha returning the sweets as he was entitled to his opinions and if he didn't want to keep it, he had a valid reason for it.
