more-inActor Amitabh Bachchan, about his name featuring in the Panama papers and Bofors scandal, said that he has always cooperated with the system, but wishes to be left alone at this stage of his life. It is not clear if the actor knew about the Paradise Papers beforehand or that his name was going to figure in the list. It, however, did not mention the Paradise Papers. “At this age and time of my life, I seek peace and freedom from prominence... To be left to lead the last few years of my life with and within myself...,” Mr. Bachchan wrote. Many in the media, he said, asked whether he would seek retribution after his name was cleared or seek information on who had planted his name.
