On the festive occassion of Karwachauth, Amitabh Bachchan took to his Twitter handle and posted a black and white picture with Jaya Bachchan. The twist in the story is — he was not seen in the picture & was cropped. Adding his dash of humour he captioned the image by saying that the beautiful lady next to him is his 'better half' and further called himself 'irrelevant' and therefor 'unseen'.

BigB also mentioned Karwachauth in his latest blog:

Despite favoured conditioning , I firmly believe that there shall be a few more days of extended slumber , extended kite flying and extended and limited sips of the ‘elixir of life’ ..

.. so be it ..  but so be it shall limit the festive rituals of the much respected ‘Karvachauth’ .. the day the betters pray keep and execute customs for the longevity and conditions of their better halves .. a simple yet very potent ceremony , admired and lauded by all .. 

Till its completeness then .. namaste ..

Jaya talks about falling in love with Amitabh

In an interview, remembering how she fell in love with the superstar, Jaya said: “I was introduced to him on the sets of Guddi. I was impressed by him and somewhat in awe as he was Harivanshrai Bachchan's son. I felt he was different, though people laughed at me when I said that. I expressed my feelings and said he's going to make it big, even though I was aware he wasn't the usual stereotype hero. I fell in love with him very soon.”
