While Amitabh Bachchan has been one actor who’s known for punctuality, Shatrughan Sinha has been exactly opposite when it comes to being there on time. “Bhai yeh to shuru se hi aise hai,” says Amitabh.

Remembering the shooting of Shaan (1980) and Naseeb (1981) days, Amitabh further adds, “We both were a part of these two movies. We would do double shifts wherein we would shoot for Shaan at Film City (Goregaon, Mumbai) from 7 am to 2 pm and then move to Chandivali (Mumbai) to shoot Naseeb between 2 pm to 10 pm. While I would reach Naseeb’s sets at 2.30 pm, it is Shatru who would walk in at 6 pm! Hum Shaan ke sets se saath toh nikalte te the, par yeh itne late kaise aate the, kya maalum? Infact today I would want to know from him ki who kaha jaate the.”

In a tongue in cheek mode, Big B described an incident that established Shatrughan as an attention seeker. Narrating an episode during the shooting of Bombay To Goa (1972), Amitabh says, “We had a scene with Aruna Irani at a swimming pool. Shatru did his dialogues and then walked away. Later Aruna and I had a sequence where we are exchanging dialogues. However, suddenly I see smoke rings coming in between (me and Aruna). Phir maine dekha ki yeh (Shatru) smoke kar rahe hai. He just wanted attention!”
