Jaya Bachchan actor-turned politician celebrates 75th Birthday today 9 April
Jaya belongs to that era of actors when there was nothing called the paparazzi, vanity van culture. Simplicity ruled supreme in movies and that could be reflected in the actors’ lives as well. Jaya Bhaduri, later known as Jaya Bachchan
Jaya Bachchan has been in the film industry for six decades. She made her film debut in Satyajit Ray’s Mahanagar (1963) as a teenager and broke through Bollywood with her performance in Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s Guddi in 1971.
In one of her old interview, Jaya Bachchan had articulated that she is more of an impulsive person. She can’t tolerate stupidity.
Jaya is often looked upon as short-tempered. She countered that view and said she is spontaneous and can’t plan the response she has to someone else’s actions.
The veteran actor, who is also Member of Parliament from the Samajwadi Party, has been filmed on the red carpet and at film events, getting angry with the paparazzi or members of the press if they cross any personal boundaries with her family. On Karan Johar’s talk show Koffee With Karan, Jaya’s daughter Shweta Bachchan Nanda had shared that Jaya doesn’t like if people take her pictures without asking her. Furthermore, she feels claustrophobic if too many people crowd around her.
While appearing on the TV show Guftagoo in 2014, the veteran actor had explained, she doesn’t have patience for stupidity.
On the work front, Jaya will be seen in Karan’s film Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani this July alongside Dharmendra, Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt and Shabana Azmi. She is returning to acting after a decade. Her last film was Rituparno Ghosh’s Sunglass in 2013. She made a special appearance in R Balki’s Ki & Ka in 2016.
