In his autobiography titled 'Anything But Khamosh', the actor-turned-politician has opened about how Amitabh considered him a threat and mistreated him on the sets. A snippet from the book reads, "Amitabh's mother once praised my wife on her 'Karva Chauth' fast, to which Amitabh said, 'Poor thing, after all those fasts, look at what she ultimately got.' However, it seems that the two stars have now set their differences aside.

• During the unveiling of a Yash Chopra statue in 2013, Shatrughan made a huge 'blooper' while addressing Rani Mukerji in his speech. The veteran actor referred to her as 'Rani Chopra' instead, thus deliberately clearing the air on Rani Mukherji's alleged affair with Aditya Chopra.
