Happy 73rd birthday to the evergreen actress-politician Jaya Bachchan!
Wishes and blessings have been pouring in for the veteran actress throughout the day today.
On this special occasion let’s take a trip down memory lane when Big B revealed the unknown story behind his marriage with Jaya Bachchan. Big B met Jaya on the sets of the 1971 film Guddi and got married almost a month after Zanjeer was released in May 1973.
Did you guys know the success of his film Zanjeer was the reason they got married? Yes, you heard this right!
Last year, on their 47th wedding anniversary, Amitabh Bachchan revealed how he wanted to celebrate the success of his film Zanjeer with Jaya in London when his father late poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan asked him to marry her first before their trip.
“47 years .. today .. June 3, 1973 .. !! Had decided if Zanjeer would succeed, we would along with a few friends go to London for the first time .. My Father asked who you going with? When i told him who , he said you must marry her before you go .. else you don’t go .. So .. I obeyed,” the actor wrote.
