Happy birthday, Jaya Bachchan: Lesser-known facts about the legendary actor | The Times of India

Jaya Bachchan met her now-husband Amitabh Bachchan for the first time on the sets of ‘Guddi’. Jaya was a superstar in the early 1970s, while Big B was a struggling actor. Not many know that she predicted that he would be a superstar even back then, and no one else agreed with her. Soon things started to fall in place, and Jaya and Amitabh became a hit pair. Together they have delivered several hit films like ‘Zanjeer’, ‘Chupke Chupke’, ‘Abhimaan’, ‘Silsila’, ‘Mili’, and ‘Sholay’.
