Bollywood's beloved couple, Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan's throwback pictures from 1997 have surfaced online. As seen in the pictures, Jaya and Amitabh Bachchan perform daughter Shweta Bachchan's wedding rituals. Shweta Bachchan got married to Nikhil Nanda in 1997 and their wedding ceremony was nothing but dreamy. 

As seen in the photo, Jaya Bachchan is clad in a dazzling red ghagra sari with lavish floral embroidery on it. Whereas Big B, on the other hand, sports a classic sherwani. The duo is surrounded by quite a lot of people. Not to miss Shweta Bachchan's wedding attire, which is all about handcrafted embroidery. 

Another picture from Shweta Bachchan's wedding featuring Shweta and husband Nikhil Nanda shows the duo caught in an adorable moment. Shweta is all smiles as Nikhil holds her hand, and presumably whispers something in her ear. Take a look at their amazing throwback pictures from the grand affair in 1997.
