It is wrong to ask for an apology from Amitabh Bachchan: Jaya Bachchan - India News and Travel Times Provides India-centric and other News and Features

Bollywood actor and Rajya Sabha member Jaya Bachchan on Friday said it is wrong to ask for an apology from Amitabh Bachchan with regard to the Sea Link controversy surrounding the superstar. "Why should Amitji say sorry?" she said. Jaya Bachchan, who was addressing the media at the Women's Press Club, said, "I am not here to speak for Amitabh Bachchan. He can speak for himself." "In a democracy anyone can go anywhere," she added. Miffed over resentment in the Congress about his presence in a government function, Amitabh Bachchan on Thursday night hit out at his detractors, saying he was invited and that the whole controversy was manufactured. The megastar also said there were half-page advertisements in the media that he will be taking part in the function, an apparent dig at Maharashtra Chief Minister Ashok Chavan, who said he would not have attended the function if he had known that Bachchan would be present.
