Jaya Bachchan disclosed: “While I was filming in Calcutta, we made the decision to take a vacation if one of our movies became successful. Zanjeer. The film was well-liked. There’s an issue, Nana (grandpa) called while I was filming a movie in Calcutta. Because my work would have decreased by then, we agreed to get married in October. I definitely don’t want a bride who will work from 9 to 5,” he declared. You must work, therefore please do so—just not every day. You select your projects and associate with the appropriate individuals.”
I responded okay, she continued. Then he called me and said, “My parents are saying you can’t go on vacation with Jaya; if you want to vacation with her, you must marry her.” What do you think, he asked. We were going to get married in October, so it’s good; we’ll do it in June.
It was a “quiet wedding,” according to Jaya Bachchan, between her and Amitabh at her grandmother’s house in Mumbai. She continued, “But you will have to speak to my parents, I added. He spoke with my father over the phone.
My father didn’t want me to get married, therefore he wasn’t very thrilled. There were three of us. “I have not brought you into this world merely to educate yourself, get married, establish yourself, and have children,” he declared. I want each and every one of you to take action. My father was that. My father responded, “That’s fine,” after he had spoken to him. We choose a small wedding. I want my living parents to attend because,”
