Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan make one of the most loved couples of the country. Recently senior actress Farida Jalal talked about them and shared some interesting things about the couple from the times when they both used to date each other.
Farida Jalal stated, “I used to stay in Pali Hill and Amitabh resided in Juhu. They were not married at that time. They were in a courtship period and used to fight as every couple does. Amitji used to drive, Jaya sat beside him and I would be in the backseat. I used to tell them, ‘I feel like I am third wheel but they insisted me to join them
She further said, “I was someone who used to go to bed early but they would still call me. And they kept on fighting and I witnessed it. Jaya roti thi, woh manate the (Jaya used to cry and he used to pacify her). I used to love those moments. My friendship with Jaya goes a long way. I lovingly called her Jiya. While returning from those coffee dates, they used to talk about films. They then dropped me off and went home. All I can say is they are lovely people. They called me and Gulzar saab to their wedding. No one else from the industry was there.”
Farida Jalal was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Heeramandi and her fans want to see more of her.
