Things that upset Amitabh Bachchan…

He's the Shahenshah of Bollywood, a true-blue professional and a punctuality freak.
Amitabh gives up some of his polite streak as he points things that bother him…
“I can't stand baseless gossip. For example, during the Shimla schedule of Black, a frontline magazine carried a report that I was cavorting with an entire caravan of vehicles. The journo went onto say that the Shimla Government had footed the bill. And that, it was unfair and this kind of money should go into the state treasury”
So what was the actual scene? “Well, yes I have a 20 member staff, but they are personally paid for by me. As for the 20 cars, the unit had approximately 150 people, so using a couple of cars shouldn't hurt anybody” he says nonchalantly.
Besides there was this scribe who got all caustic and said that Hum Kaun Hain sold only 4 tickets! “How am I supposed to know these details and in any case, I wasn't the lead actor in the film! For starters, I took on the project for old friend Tito. But when we are about to shoot, I learnt that I play the protagonist and the film is being made both in Bengali and Hindi. So every shot had 2 takes,” he explains.
While we are left with a dazed expression, the screen idol continues, “Its things like these that cheese me off”
