Shatrughan talks about his relationship with Amitabh in 2001- source

Amitabh is my senior in age, but my junior in films.

I was getting myself established or rather, I was at the fag end of my struggle when he came in and began his own struggle.

We used to be together, with another friend Ali, Mehmood’s younger brother. Most of the time, you could find us either in Mehmood’s house, or in my flat at Bandra’s Bandstand. We would see films together, go on dates together, go to the disco together — we were a team. We also shared a secretary, Pawan Kumar.

AMITABH’s climb was steady, and as he got increasingly busy, we began to meet less frequently. But we did do a few films toegether. I must say that Amitabh did not want me to do these films. One was Kaala Pathar, Amitabh didn’t want me to do it, I was in the film much against his wishes. It was unfortunate that though we had been such good friends, he and I hardly spoke during the making of that film.

I agree with Mr Sinha. Apart from him Bacchan had so many memorable films with Rajnikant, Mithun , Asrani, Rakhee, Rekha and none were invited. The bozo Amar Singh has brainwashed Bacchan and is hogging the limilight by riding in the front seat. Regardless if Bacchann thinks he has found his true friend then so be it. You dont lose your old friends when you make new ones.

C’mon – let’s not get so angry about a wedding invitation.

I wasn’t invited either and I’m not mad.
