Amjad Khan Birth Anniversary: Why Was Gabbar Singh So Bitter Towards the End of His Life?

Amjad Khan was at the peak of his career when he met with that dreadful accident in Goa during the shooting of ‘The Great Gambler,’ with his best friend Amitabh Bachchan as his co-star. Amjad was driving the Mercedes, with Amitabh seated next to him. The impact of the accident was so severe that the steering wheel pierced Amjad’s chest.

Amjad's Struggle with Weight Gain Post-Accident

He was taken to Nanavati Hospital in Mumbai, where he spent the next six months. (Incidentally, this is the same hospital where Amitabh and his son Abhishek were recently treated for COVID-19.) Due to the medication and steroids, he gained so much weight that he couldn’t even sit properly. He had to travel in a large-sized jeep, and two seats were booked for him on flights.

Even in the most adverse circumstances, he remained my friend. One day, he invited me to his home for lunch, and it took him two hours to come downstairs. We were having lunch on a large mat, and he said he wanted to tell me something he had never told anyone before.

Bitter Feelings Toward Industry Friends and Politicians

He was very bitter and angry with some stars who had become politicians. He said that the only real star-politician was Sunil Dutt, and the rest had entered politics only to serve their own interests. He even cursed some of them.

Amjad said there were no true friends in the industry, and friendship was just a way to further one’s own ends. Once the friends had no use for you, they forgot about you. He told me about most of his friends who had exploited him when he was at the top and then forgot about him.

Amjad's Desire to Expose the True Faces of Bollywood

I could see how exhausted he was while talking, and he asked me if I could meet him again the next day because he wanted to expose the true faces of the industry, especially his friends. I got a call at 5:30 in the morning. A sad voice on the other end said, "Amjad Bhai passed away in his sleep last night."

Who knows, if Amjad Khan had lived for just one more day or a little longer, he could have unmasked the industry's facade and revealed some shocking facts, similar to what is happening today in the Sushant Singh Rajput case!
