Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan’s life takes an unexpected turn in a revelation about Rekha’s love story. Find out what happened behind closed doors in this shocking claims made by Nasir Adeeb, a Pakistani scriptwriter.

The love story of Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha has been one of the most talked-about affairs in Bollywood history for decades now. Despite their on-screen chemistry and decades of speculation, the two have always maintained a level of mystery around their rumoured romance. Recently, a Pakistani scriptwriter Nasir Adeeb made some shocking revelations during a podcast that shed light on the secret meetings between Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha.

In an in-depth interview on the Pakistan Podcast channel Suno Popcast, Nasir Adeeb shared details about their alleged relationship which began after they worked together in the 1976 film Do Anjaane. At the time, Amitabh Bachchan was already married to Jaya Bachchan and their love story remained under wraps for quite some time. According to Nasir Adeeb, their bond grew stronger over time, but it was kept a secret to protect Amitabh’s personal life. “Amitabh Bachchan ise chupate rahe, uski wajah yeh thi ek toh unka Jaya Bachchan se bhi ishq aur bacche bhi the (Amitabh Bachchan kept it a secret because, first, he was in love with Jaya Bachchan, and he also had children),” he explained.

Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha’s Secret Meeting

Nasir went on to reveal that during their affair, Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha met secretly at a friend’s bungalow to avoid media attention. “Rekha ji jab unke zindagi mein aayi toh chupana shuru kiya, yeh doston ke bungalow mein aise mulaqat kiya karte hai. Kisi na kisike bungalow mein milna, par hotel mein nahi jaate the kyuki hotel mein press bhi hoti hai aur log bhi hote hai, aur dono ko log jaante b the, toh yeh dono kisina kisi dost ke bungalow mein milthe the (When Rekha came into his life, they started hiding their meetings. They would meet at someone’s bungalow, but never at a hotel because there were press and people there, and everyone knew them, so they would meet at a friend’s bungalow)”.

Amitabh Bachchan Fought For Rekha

These secret meetings continued until an incident during a film shoot exposed their affair. Nasir Adeeb mentioned that when a technician misbehaved with Rekha, Amitabh Bachchan fought with that man who even apologized to him later. And soon after this incident made their relationship a public topic and their affair became headline news which reportedly disturbed Jaya Bachchan’s life.

Silsila was Inspired By Their Affair

Nasir Adeeb also discussed a moment that created further media frenzy when Rekha appeared at an event wearing a mangalsutra and sindoor, which created speculations that she might have married Amitabh. Jaya Bachchan reportedly saw Rekha’s look and left the event crying wondering if they two had secretly tied the knot. However, it was later clarified that this wasn’t the case. This situation, along with the growing buzz around their romance also led to Yash Chopra making the 1981 film Silsila, which was inspired by their love story.

Interestingly, when Silsila was first offered to Jaya Bachchan, she rejected it, as it portrayed her character as the wife and Rekha as the lover. The film’s climax, where Amitabh returns to Jaya after Rekha leaves seemed to reflect reality at the time. To this day, Rekha continues to wear a mangalsutra and sindoor, a gesture that many believe symbolizes her love for Amitabh Bachchan, also confirmed by Nasir Adeeb.

Rekha later married Delhi-based industrialist Mukesh Aggarwal in 1990, but the marriage ended tragically with his death the same year. After that, Rekha never remarried. Meanwhile, Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan have remained a steadfast couple since their marriage in 1973, and they have two children: Shweta Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan, the latter of whom is also an actor.
