As the trailers of director Ram Gopal Verma's Sarkar Raj were launched on the weekend, the director managed snatch a bit of the limelight from under the nose of the Bachchan parivaar, when he used the occasion to apologize Amitabh Bachchan.

The superstar was taken aback and was slightly embarrassed when Ramu did his apology act. The director apologized for misusing the Big B in film like Nishabd and Ram Gopal Verma Ki Aag. The director said that he compelled the Big B to do both the films even though the Big B did not really want to be a part of these films. According to an emotional Verma, the actor had a gut feeling that he should not be apart of both these films, but he, forced him to do both the roles. The result, of course, is by now evident to all. But the Big B came to his rescue as he reposed faith in him as an actor and said that both the roles had challenged him as an actor. He also added that he has been a great fan of Ramu and was very happy to have been a part of Sarkar and now Sarkar Raj. Besides this one moment when he had the limelight on him, the rest of the evening was taken over by the Bachchan parivaar, as it was also the first wedding anniversary of Ash and Abhishek. The couple spoke live to the press from Miami as a fond Jaya and Amitabh looked on.
