Amitabh Bachchan Recalls His Wedding With Jaya Bachchan
Responding to Aheli Roy’s question, Amitabh Bachchan explained that there was no elaborate process involved in deciding to marry Jaya Bachchan.
According to the actor, he simply told Jaya Bachchan one day that they should get married, and she agreed. Once they had made the decision, Jaya informed her parents, who also agreed to the marriage.
Recalling how quickly everything happened, Amitabh Bachchan said that after some conversation between the families, the couple got married the following day.
He also reflected on his preference for keeping the occasion simple rather than getting caught up in extensive wedding preparations involving dates, clothes, travel, arrangements and celebrations.
For Amitabh Bachchan, the most important part was their decision to accept each other as husband and wife rather than the scale of the wedding celebrations.
