Jaya Bachchan once revealed that Amitabh Bachchan drove her crazy when he was sitting at home with no work in hand. Amitabh took a break from acting in the 1990s. Recalling that period in an interview in 2012, Jaya Bachchan revealed that Big B was trying to ‘run the house’ when he was at home. As a bystander, Jaya found his attempt ‘hilarious and painful.’
Speaking with Filmfare in 2012, on the occasion of his birthday, Jaya recalled, “In between when he wasn’t working, he drove all of us crazy. He was busy buying an oven, washing machine… which was difficult for me as a housewife to accept. But he insisted saying, everything was old and to donate or throw them away and buy the latest models. He was trying to run the household which was hilarious and painful. He’s not a control freak but he does like to be in control of his life.”
The Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani actress added, “And he has great consideration for the feelings of the rest of the family. His strong sense of being fair always surfaces. He never insists on taking decisions for the family. He never wants a say in day to day affairs. Once in a while he’ll mention that he’d liked a particular dish and that could we have it again. Of course we all know his preferences and make sure they appear on the table.”
Today, Amitabh is one of the busiest actors in Bollywood. This year alone, he starred in Kalki 2898 AD, which was one of the biggest hits of the year, and has also been hosting the new season of Kaun Banega Crorepati. In the mean time, he has also been busy with the making of Vettaiyan, his Tamil debut film. Amitabh reunites with Rajinikanth after 32 years for the film. Despite his busy schedule, Amitabh ensures he meets fans on Sundays.
