Actor Farida Jalal recently shared that Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan fought about ‘stupid’ things during their courtship period. She said she would accompany them on their coffee date at Taj Hotel.

Veteran Bollywood actor Farida Jalal recently shared details of the times when Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan were dating each other. She shared that the couple often took her along with them on their coffee dates at Taj Hotel in Mumbai, where she would witness their sweet-nothings, and sometimes their “fights about stupid things” as well.

“They would take me with them on their coffee dates at Taj. They were about to get married and were in their courtship period. They used to fight like any other couple,” Farida Jalal told Bollywood Bubble, while adding that she would sit in the back seat while Amitabh drove the car and Jaya sat beside him.

The ‘Heeramandi’ actor was not very happy about being the third wheel in Amitabh and Jaya’s love story. “I would tell them, ‘Tum log mujhe kebab mein haddi bana kar kyun laate ho? (Why do you guys always bring me in as the third wheel?) I used to complain to them about spoiling my sleep as I was an early-to-bed girl,” shared Jalal.

Jaya Bachchan also shared on Navya’s podcast how they got married in June instead of October to go on a vacation together.

She said, “We had to go on a trip after the success of the film we did together (Zanjeer). But one day, he called me and said, ‘There’s a problem. My parents won’t allow us to go on a holiday and if we want to go, we must get married.’ So, I said we were already planning to get married in October, let’s get it done in June. But you will have to speak to my parents. He called my father, who was not very happy, since he never wanted me to get married.”

Work-wise, Jaya Bachchan recently returned to films with Karan Johar’s Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani.
