Throwback: When Jaya Bachchan got ‘frightened’ on meeting Amitabh Bachchan! ‘I saw danger’…. | Hindi Movie News – Times of India



Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan have been married for more than four decades, and are parents to daughter Shweta Nanda and son Abhishek Bachchan. The two, who had collaborated on many films like Sholay, Silsila, Abhimaan, Guddi and others, found love on sets and tied the knot, kick starting a lifetime of togetherness.

In an old episode of the Simi Garewal show, the couple opened up on their love story and how it all really started.

The Big B revealed, “I inquired about her and they gave me a lowdown on her. It came to pass that Hrishi da (Hrishikesh Mukherjee) had cast her for Guddi. It kind of got me excited about the prospect of working with her because she came with huge credentials. I went on the set (Guddi) and that’s when I met her for the first time.”
He further added, “When I saw her photograph, I liked her eyes. I saw that traditional-conservative blend that I thought that I would be searching for in my future wife. When I met her I realised that along with that came several other Guddis, the pun is unintended! I said fine, this is it.”

It was then Jaya’s turn to say something, but she had a different take on it! She said, “When I first met him, I saw danger!”. She added, “I got frightened because he was the only one who, out of a lot of people that I’ve known, could dictate things to me and I allow him to do that. (But) It’s not like he would dictate things to me, it’s just that even if he said something to me mildly, I’d do them. I’d want to please him. That’s something that does not come to me easily and naturally, to want to please people.”
Jaya also admitted that it might have been love at first sight for him.

To this Amitabh Bachchan added, “Love at first sight is a connotation that has been so badly abused, in spoken word and written word that it’s lost its meaning. So we don’t want to be put in that category. You know the beautiful thing about this is, we haven’t made a commitment yet. We’re still groping in the dark. It’s an alien area, it’s new to us. And what I think is, it just happened.”
