Amitabh Bachchan responds to Maggi controversy

2nd June 2015

Promoting popular snack took to the penalty for megastar, Amitabh Bachchan.

A case has been registered against Nestle India by FDA and also an FIR was filed against the celebrity promoters like, Big B, Madhuri Dixit and Preity Zinta by a local advocate in Uttar Pradesh.

Recently Big B responded to the controversy, "I did check with Nestle, who make the product, whether this is all right and if they are sure. I even put a clause in my contract where I said that I hope you people defend me, legally, if something happens. I don't endorse it now because my contract is over."

The 'Piku' actor further added, "Every time there is something consumable, I try to have a look at it because they are always up for a lot of controversies. And, if you are in some celebrity position, then you are bound to get attacked and getting drawn into it."

FDA found monosodium glutamate and lead in excess of the prescribed limit in Maggi samples they tested.
