Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's wedding sweets were returned by Shatrughan Sinha; the 'Guru' actor had said, 'My grandmother was at the hospital...'

Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan had a ver intimate wedding in 2007. While this union was so grand, the wedding ceremony was very intimate as most industry people were not invted. The wedding took place just in the midst of family and very close friends. However, the Bachchans had shared their happiness by sending sweets to their close associates from the industry and many people. However, Shatrughan Sinha had actually returned those sweets as he wasn't invited to the wedding.
Aishwarya and Abhishek had made an appearance together on 'Koffee With Karan', post their wedding. Karan had asked Abhishek about not inviting people. He had reacted to it and said that time, "Very honestly, people are forgetting a very, very major reason why our family wanted to keep it very intimate. There was an ailing grandmother at the hospital and my father said that ‘You know, we do not feel good about going out there and having a big celebration.’ Did I want to invite? Did my family want to invite? Did her family want to invite the entire world? Yes. But our parents, all together, sent out a card seeking the blessings of everybody. And everybody was ok with that except for one person who returned that. And that was fine. That was Shatrughan uncle, he returned the card and that was fine. We accepted it back. You can’t please everyone."
In an interview with Mid-Day earlier, Shatrughan Sinha explained why he returned the wedding card, saying, “Jab bulaaya nahin phir mithai kis baat ki? (when you are not invited, why is the need to send sweets). I won’t be put in second place and embarrass him by accepting the sweets. The least I expected was that either Amitabh or someone from the family would call me up before sending the sweets. When that was not done, why the mithai?"
Shatrughan Sinha and Amitabh Bachchan share a long association as they did films like 'Dostana', 'Kaala Patthar' and 'Shaan' together.
