On leaving the premiere of the Sholay remake midway, Bachchan 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 a news agency 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.
