Amitabh Bachchan rarely gets this candid about his personal life. In an exclusive chat, Amitabh said his short dabbling with politics might have been an impulsive decision. The Bachchan family had close ties with the Gandhi family in times of Rajiv Gandhi. Despite visible cooling off of feelings between the two major families of India, Amitabh has talked about his appreciation for the current Gandhi – Rahul. Son of ex Prime Minister of India and the contemporary leader of the ruling party, Rahul Gandhi is being touted as the next big thing in Indian political scene.

Amitabh said, “Rahul was born before me, and he is an appreciable lad. He is talented, educated, and has a heart in the right place.”
Further, when enquired about close ally Amar Singh, Amitabh denied he talks politics with the politician. He said, “I don’t talk politics with Amar Singh, and he never asks me why I did that particular role. And I don’t consider him just a friend – he is family!”
Very particular about not referring to Indian film industry as Bollywood, he said that films are just a profession for a set of people, and it is a form of art, almost a magical thing.
