Shiv Sena continues tirade against Big B
MIL/NDTV, Apr 5, 2008.
Mumbai: April 5, 2008 - After superstar Rajinikant took on Karnataka politicians over the disputed Hogennakal project, the Shiv Sena has once again targetted Amitabh Bachchan and other Bollywood stars for not supporting the Marathi cause.
In an editorial in its mouthpiece Samna, the Shiv Sena has said ''People who have benefited from Mumbai and Maharashtra often don't take up for the Marathi cause and run away. This includes people like Amitabh Bachchan.''
The Sena's comments came at a time when Bachchan was doing something for the city. He was at an event to mark 'No Honking Day in the City.'
''Don't you think I have done enough for Maharashtra? If you don't know my contribution, then it is a shame,'' he said to the media.
This is a complete turnaround from Sena supreme Bal Thackeray's statement two months ago supporting Amitabh Bachchan when Raj Thackeray criticised him.
