This veteran superstar, frenemy of Amitabh Bachchan was offended for not inviting him in Abhishek Bachchan-Aishwarya Rai's wedding and sending sweets later on.
Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai got married on April 20, 2007. However, unlike a big fat wedding, the duo had an intimate wedding ceremony, in which many close friends of The Bachchans were not invited. The Bachchan family sent sweet packets to the guests they couldn't invite. However, one of them returned the sweets and even the wedding card.
Shatrughan Sinha: The frenemy of Amitabh Bachchan who got offended
The veteran actor, Shatrughan Sinha, who has shared screen space with Amitabh Bachchan in Bombay To Goa, Kaala Patthar, Naseeb, Shaan, and Dostana returned Abhishek-Aishwarya's wedding card and even the sweets The Bachchan family sent.
Why Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai had a private wedding ceremony?
Abhishek clarified that in 2007 his grandmother, Teji Bachchan, was unwell and was hospitalised. Hence they decided to keep it private. However, they wanted to get the blessings of people from the industry and hence sent the sweets.
Abhishek Bachchan on Shatrughan Sinha
At Koffee With Karan, Abhishek opened up about Sinha's reaction, and said, "Very honestly, people are forgetting a very, very major reason why our family wanted to keep it very intimate. There was an ailing grandmother at the hospital and my father said that 'you know, we do not feel good about going out there and having a big celebration.' Did I want to invite? Did my family want to invite? Did her family want to invite the entire world? Yes. But our parents, all together, sent out a card seeking the blessings of everybody. And everybody was ok with that except for one person who returned that. And that was fine. That was Shatrughan uncle, he returned the card and that was fine. We accepted it back. You can't please everyone."
Shatrughan Sinha on returning the wedding card
In an interview with Mid-Day, Shatrughan revealed why he returned the card, “Jab bulaaya nahin phir mithai kis baat ki? (when you are not invited, why is the need to send sweets).” Sinha further added, " I won't be put in second place and embarrass him by accepting the sweets. 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?"
