New Delhi: Actor Amitabh Bachchan, along with daughter Shweta, has visited the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) to meet former Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh.
This comes days after Amar Singh's close confidante, actress and MP Jaya Prada's visit to the hospital where she warned that many will be in trouble if truth is revealed by the former Samajwadi Party leader.
"Despite being treated so badly and attempts being made to spoil his image, he maintained silence himself and also asked us to keep quiet. At the right stage, he himself will reveal everything," Jaya Prada said.
The actress broke down while talking to the media and expressed anger against both politicians and celebrities for not showing sympathy towards Amar Singh.
"The big celebrities whom he helped, he fought to get them land...the famous people, where are they?" Jaya Prada asked in an apparent reference to Amitabh Bachchan and his family.
Amar Singh, an accused in the cash-for-votes scandal, was admitted to AIMS hospital last week. On Thursday, a Delhi court had granted interim him bail till September 19 on health grounds. He was in judicial custody for nine days.
Amar Singh on September 6 became the latest high-profile politician to be sent to the Tihar Jail after he, along with two former Bharatiya Janata Party MPs, was arrested for alleged involvement in the attempt to bribe MPs ahead of a trust vote in Parliament in 2008.
