Salim Khan And Amitabh Bachchan: Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar gave birth to Hindi cinema Angry Young Man in 1973 with the film Zanjeer. This film proved to be the turning point of his career. Zanjeer changed the direction of Amitabh Bachchan’s career and made him the biggest star of that era. Recently, in his son Arbaaz Khan’s show, Salim Khan told many stories related to Amitabh Bachchan.
He told that it was Amitabh Bachchan’s luck that he got this film. Apart from this, he also talked about the reclusive nature of Big B. Along with this, it was told that after the break-up of Salim-Javed’s pair, how the distance came between them too.
Big B got chain by luck
Salim Khan told that first the script of Zanjeer film went to Dharmendra, Dev Anand and Dilip Kumar, but none of the three agreed to do this film. At last Amitabh Bachchan was selected. At that time no heroine was ready to do this film. In such a situation, a request was made to Jaya Bhaduri. Salim Khan told, ‘I suggested that take Jaya Bachchan. She will do this film. She will do this film for Amitabh. When I narrated the story to Jaya, she said that it is mine too, but not much in it. I said that yes there is nothing in it, not much of yours, but for Amitabh Bachchan, this is such a story that it will explode.’
Said this about Amitabh
According to Salim Khan, he had so much faith in Amitabh’s professionalism and acting that he kept promoting his name at every turn. However, after parting ways with Javed Akhtar, even Amitabh did not keep in touch with us. Apart from this, Amitabh’s behavior is of being a little reserved. Salim Khan said, ‘The responsibility of keeping this relationship was on him. When you become a very big star, it is your responsibility to meet him, whatever it may be, it is your duty to maintain a relationship. Which he probably didn’t do for some reason.
Salim-Amitabh’s pair was made in this film
After the separation of Salim-Javed, Amitabh and Salim worked together during the film Toofan in 1989. Salim Khan told that he was very professional, but he was never a friend. He said, ‘I never even claimed that I am his great friend or that our friendship was very good. Whatever his nature, it is not only with me, it is like this with everyone that he does not allow anyone to come too close. Worked professionally, worked very well.
