Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan Thursday night refused to say anything more on the attacks on his family, especially his wife Jaya, by the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) and said the "topic is over".
Speaking at the premiere of "The Last Lear" in which he has a major role, Amitabh refused to be drawn in by persistent questions of media persons, saying: "That topic is over, let s not discuss it any more." Asked how many times he would apologise to the MNS for his wife's alleged "anti-Marathi" remarks, the Bollywood veteran said: "Maafi mangney sey aadmi chhota nahin ho jata ( One does not become small by apologising)".
Amitabh had Wednesday apologised for his wife's remarks and said his family would be ready to take any punishment if found guilty of any crime. The premiere Thursday was held at Select City PVR Multiplex.
He said he was happy that people would be watching the film in Mumbai, where the premiere of "The Last Lear" was cancelled after the MNS attacked the cinema hall where the film was to be screened. However, the MNS called off its agitation Thursday following the apology tendered by the Bachchans. Chaudhri said they were holding a premiere in Kolkata Friday.
