Satyajeet Puri: Amitabh Bachchan's film faced boycott due to Bofors row
Actor Satyajeet Puri shared that the 1987 Bofors scandal negatively impacted the movie 'Kaun Jeeta Kaun Haara' because of a strong public backlash against Amitabh Bachchan. The anger stemmed from Bachchan’s friendship with then-Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi amid the ₹64-crore Bofors kickback controversy. Puri remembered that nobody was interested in the film, noting that people even defaced the movie's posters.
