Amitabh Bachchan, the emperor of Bollywood, has been ruling the film industry for decades. There is no way that he is a talented actor, but it cannot be denied that he is also a loving husband. He shares a good bond with his wife Jaya Bachchan. Today, Jaya Bachchan and Amitabh Bachchan have completed 49 years of marriage. Both the stars are celebrating their 49th anniversary today i.e. on June 3. On this occasion, an old interview of the couple has come to the fore, in which both Jaya Bachchan and Big-B are seen making many big revelations about each other.
Actually an old video of Simi Garewal’s show has surfaced. This video is from 1998. Amitabh Bachchan joined his wife Jaya in a special conversation with Simi Garewal Ray. Amitabh and Jaya revealed that they met on the sets of the film Guddi. Jaya ji was in the lead role in this film. Big-B told that he saw Jaya for the first time on the cover page of a magazine, and also inquired about her.
When Simi asked Jaya Bachchan if she knew immediately that she would marry Big B, she blushed and said, “I didn’t know that I would marry this man.” But I was scared. Big B was stunned by Jaya Bachchan’s reply.
Simi further asked Jaya Bachchan if she questions the rumours of her affair with Amitabh, to which Jaya replied, “No, the reason is that it would be very cheesy. I am also from the same industry and I am his wife, it will be a matter of great regret if I start questioning him on any rumor spread by a journalist. I don’t think I should question him on anything said by a fourth person, that would be very lousy.”
Let us tell you that Amitabh Bachchan had fallen in love with actress Rekha after marriage. In 1973, only a few years after his marriage to Jaya, the news of Rekha and Amitabh’s affair started making headlines. It is said that during the shooting of the film ‘Do Anjaane’ in 1976, Amitabh and Rekha came close. However, later on this relationship was broken.
Let us tell you that the love story of both of them was successful after the film Zanjeer. Actually, the starcast of ‘Zanjeer’ made up their mind to visit London after the film became a hit, but when Amitabh’s father Harivansh Rai Bachchan came to know about this, he refused to send the two together. He said that Amitabh will not go out with any girl without getting married. Then Amitabh proposed Jaya for marriage and Jaya also accepted that proposal of Amitabh without wasting time. Then on June 3, 1973, both tied the knot.
