New Delhi: Amitabh Bachchan had close relations with the Gandhi family. If he wanted, he could have taken advantage of his connections in difficult times, but his self-respect was not allowing this. Rajinikanth spoke about that bad phase of Amitabh Bachchan at the audio launch of the Tamil film ‘Vettaiyaan’. Both the stars will be seen together in ‘Vettaiyaan’ after 33 years. They were last seen in the film ‘Hum’.

Rajinikanth got emotional while talking about Amitabh Bachchan’s bankruptcy in the year 1990. The bad times in Big B’s life started when he decided to start his own company. The company ‘Amitabh Bachchan Corporation Limited’ could not grow and soon went bankrupt, due to which the Bachchan family had to bear a lot of debt.
