One statement from Amitabh Bachchan in his conversation with Komal Nahta caught everyone’s attention, as he labelled his wife, Jaya Bachchan, as ‘his worst critic’. When Komal asked Big B to reveal the name of his worst critic from the family, the latter promptly took Jaya Bachchan’s name. The iconic actor shared how Jaya criticises him time and again for the kind of films he had done in the past. Not only this, Big B also added how she once walked out of one of his trials. The incident left Komal in splits as Amitabh shared the hilarious anecdote about his married life. Big B said:
"She will see a film (and say) ‘What is this kind of film that you are doing?’ And there have been times in the past when she has walked out of one my trials (auditions) and there has been some kind of domestic problem when I get home."
However, further in the same interview, Amitabh Bachchan lauded his wife, Jaya Bachchan, for her instincts. The doting husband admitted that his wife is incredibly gifted with instincts, sharing how Jaya meets a person and can predict that person’s capability of making a good film. However, Big B also mentioned that Jaya’s instinct about him was absolutely right, leaving Komal Nahta in awe of him. The doting husband said:
''Jaya is incredible instinctive. She will meet a person for the first time and come and tell me ‘I like this guy, he’ll make a good film’. I say but he hasn’t started it even. (She says) ‘No, but I just feel that he is going to make a good film’. Her instinct when she chose me was absolutely right."

Time and again, we have seen Amitabh Bachchan lauding his wife, Jaya Bachchan, for always backing him and preventing him from going off the track in his acting career. Once, in an episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 15, Big B admitted that his wife, Jaya is quite strict but added that her strictness is the reason behind his success. The actor admitted that he reaches straight home from work as he’s scared of his loving wife. Big B said:
"She's strict and lenient too. I'm saved. I have to go home. I don't want to be thrashed. So, when she's strict it's better if you stay in. It scares me so I don't talk much about my personal life."
Well, we are in love with the way Amitabh Bachchan adores Jaya Bachchan. What do you think? Let us know.
