Bachchan left 'Aag' premiere to be with mother

Aag Premiere Stills

Mumbai, Sep 1 (IANS) Why did Amitabh Bachchan leave the premiere of "Ram Gopal Varma ki Aag" midway? The superstar has refuted the rumour that he is unhappy with the "Sholay" remake and clarified that he went back to be with his ailing mother.

Reacting to a report in a section of the press, Bachchan said: "Kya Karen (What can I do)? People will talk. I can't live my life in accordance with wagging tongues.

"Yes, I did leave the 'Aag' premiere early. But not because I didn't like the film. My mother's health has taken a turn for the worse. And I'm trying to spend as much time with her as possible," Bachchan told IANS over the phone.

"Since I had already seen 'Aag' I left the premiere early. Even now as I talk to you I am at the hospital with my mother."

The entire family is spending as much time as possible with Teji Bachchan. The Big B is dividing his time between shooting at Yashraj Films and rushing to the hospital.
