Amitabh is not a bhakt. He has no ideology. He is such a smart man that he took benefits from INC and Gandhis at his peak and later took benefits from Shiv Sena, SP and regional parties and when he saw tide turning he began to warm up to BJP, NDA.
He is what he is precisely due to keeping close to all power centres and taking benefits from all.
He gets awards, land deals, publicity, favour from anyone in power. Smart man never took sides and remains a weathercock. 
He has figured out Indian mentality like a pro and never takes harsh or strong stances or sides on any issues. Most diplomatic man.
