A touching vintage clip of Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan has captured the attention of netizens, highlighting their enduring bond. Having been married for over 51 years, the beloved couple’s charming interaction from a 1983 concert in the United States has gone viral, resonating deeply with fans.
In the nostalgic footage shared by Lehren TV, Amitabh performs his well-loved track “Mere Angne Mein” from the film Laawaris. Clad in a stylish black suit and surrounded by a vibrant audience, he gets a delightful surprise when Jaya steps onto the stage. What follows has elicited joy and excitement across social media platforms: Amitabh lifts Jaya effortlessly and spins her around while playfully crooning the lyrics, “Jiski biwi chhoti, uska bhi bada naam hai… gode mein bitha lo, bachhe ka kya kaam hai.”
The audience’s enthusiastic laughter and cheers encapsulated not just a performance but a genuine, heartwarming exchange between two icons. Reactions flooded in from fans, with one Reddit user reminiscing, “What an era this was,” and another noting, “This is a cute husband-wife moment.” Many shared sentiments like “So cool” and “That made my day,” amplifying the clip’s charm.
Amitabh and Jaya first crossed paths while filming Guddi and went on to share the screen in numerous classic films, including Silsila, Abhimaan, and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. They exchanged vows on June 3, 1973, in a private ceremony with close friends and family present.
In a memorable segment of Rendezvous with Simi Garewal in 1998, Jaya humorously commented on Amitabh’s romantic side, saying, “No, not with me. (laughing) I’ve created trouble. He is very shy.” Amitabh chimed in, lightheartedly remarking, “Yeah, it is such a waste of time.”
On the professional front, Amitabh recently made his Tamil cinema debut in Vettaiyan, sharing the screen with icons like Rajinikanth and Fahadh Faasil. His upcoming projects include a sequel to Kalki 2898 AD alongside Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Kamal Haasan, as well as Section 84, featuring Diana Penty and Nimrat Kaur, directed by Ribhu Dasgupta.
