In 1988, Bachchan returned to the cinema with Shahenshah, which was a box office success, in part because of all the publicity given to it.

After Khuda Gawah in 1992, he was semi-retiring for about five years, although he made films like Insaniyat from 1994, which were not very successful either.

Bachchan established Amitabh Bachchan Corporation, Ltd. ( ABCL ) in 1996 during this period, with the intention of making it an entertainment emporium. Its business strategy consisted of introducing products and services covering the entire spectrum of the Indian entertainment industry, and its operations were based on distributing and producing typical films, cassettes and videos, and on the production and marketing of television and event and character software. important. Shortly thereafter, they released the movie Tere Mere Sapne in 1996, which was a box office failure but served to get Arshad Warsi to start a career as a comic actor.
