Shatrughan Sinha has often talked about his rivalry with his former friend Amitabh Bachchan. In an interview with Zoom, the actor recounted how it all began on the sets of Yash Chopra’s 1979 film Kala Patthar. Although the veteran star now calls it ‘immaturity,’ he admitted it was ‘arrogance’ at the time.

He said, “It was not intentional. We were shooting amicably. There was a fight scene between me and Amitabh which had choreographed by fight master Shetty. While fighting, at one point, my dupe falls and his dupe puts a spade on my dupe’s neck. I was watching all of it while sitting in a corner because I don’t interfere in a film’s shooting.”

He added, “We have been friends since our struggle days. But in those days, ab romanch ka chakkar raha ho ya romance ka chakkar raha ho, uss samay kuch hua. (Now whether it was due to romance or thrill, but something happened at that time). I told them this was not in the script but Amitabh’s team approved of the scene.”

Shatrughan Sinha shared that he protested against a change in a scene on the sets of Kala Patthar, but his objections were ignored. He remarked that the question of who was the stronger actor couldn't be settled that day.

Besides Kala Patthar, Sinha and Amitabh Bachchan also worked together in films like Dostana, Shaan, and Naseeb. However, Sinha eventually stopped collaborating with Big B. He mentioned, "A lot of films were being made, but I had to amicably leave some of them. I even returned the signing amounts for a few."
