Mumbai,(IANS)| Megastar Amitabh Bachchan on his 79th birthday on Monday announced that he has terminated his contract with a pan masala brand. He also said that he was not aware that it came under ‘surrogate advertisement’. A few days after the ‘Kamla Pasand’ ad aired, Mr Bachchan contacted the brand and has walked out of the contract last week, a statement issued by Amitabh’s office said.
“On investigation of this sudden move it turns out that when Mr. Bachchan was associated with the brand, he was not aware that it came under surrogate advertising.” The statement from Amitabh’s office further stated that Mr. Bachchan has terminated the contract with the brand, has written him a letter of his termination and has returned the promotional money. The move comes after the megastar was requested to withdraw himself from a campaign promoting pan masala by a national anti-tobacco organization, saying it would give youth freedom from tobacco.
In September, Big B had responded to a social media user who asked him why he chose to endorse the brand. The cine icon then said that if some people are getting benefit from an industry, then we should not think “why am I joining it?” If it is an industry, then we should also consider it as our industry. Now, you might think I shouldn’t do this, but I get paid for it.
