When Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan had completed 25 years of marital bliss, they had graced Simi Garewal’s show, Rendezvous With Simi Garewal, where the iconic couple had opened up about their first impression of each other. Talking about the same, Mr Bachchan had revealed that it was on the sets of Guddi, when he had met her for the first time. Revealing how he fell in love with her beautiful eyes, he had shared:

“When I saw her photograph, I liked her eyes. I saw that traditional-conservative blend that I thought that I would be searching for in my future wife. When I met her I realised that along with that came several other Guddis, the pun is unintended! I said fine, this is it.”

However, Jaya wasn’t too pleased during their first meeting. Revealing why she was frightened by him, Jaya had stated:

“When I first met him, I saw danger. I got frightened because he was the only one who, out of a lot of people that I’ve known, could dictate things to me and I allow him to do that.”

Going further in the interview, Jaya had retorted that even though he never dictated things to her, she would happily oblige to whatever he said as she wanted to please him. In her words:

“It’s not like he would dictate things to me, it’s just that even if he said something to me mildly, I’d do them. I’d want to please him. That’s something that does not come to me easily and naturally, to want to please people.”
