The incident took place on the sets of the 1980 film ‘Ram Balram’. Jaya and Amitabh were married a few years before that i.e. in 1973. Jaya used to try hard to keep Amitabh and Rekha away from each other. But filmmakers-directors used to try to cast this pair in the film. Producer Tito Tony wanted to sign Rekha and Amitabh in a film titled ‘Ram Balram’.
‘Sign Zeenat Aman, not Rekha’
Jaya Bachchan asked the producer to sign Zeenat Aman opposite Amitabh Bachchan in the film. When Rekha came to know that she was being replaced in the film, instead of talking to Tito Tony, she spoke to director Vijay Anand. Rekha convinced Vijay Anand that she would be Amitabh’s heroine in ‘Ram Balaram’.
Rekha persuaded the producer, Jaya Bachchan reached the set
At that time Rekha was one of the top heroines of Bollywood. How could Vijay Anand avoid Rekha’s talk? According to reports, Rekha then made such an offer to persuade producer Tito Tony that he could not refuse. She agreed to work for free in this film. Shooting of ‘Ram Balram’ started with Rekha and Amitabh Bachchan. When Jaya Bachchan came to know, she suddenly reached the set one day.
Jaya slapped Rekha, Amitabh got angry
It is said that seeing Rekha and Amitabh talking to each other there, Jaya got angry and slapped Rekha in front of everyone. Everyone present on the set was shocked. Amitabh Bachchan also lost his senses and left from there in anger.
Rekha calls Jaya ‘Didi Bhai’
However later everything went well. Although Rekha and Jaya shy away from coming in front of each other, but respect each other. Rekha fondly calls Jaya as ‘Didi Bhai’. And Jaya is also living a happy life with Amitabh Bachchan.
