Unseen Wedding Photos Of Amitabh Bachchan-Jaya Bachchan Go Viral As Fans Wish Couple On 52nd Marriage Anniversary

Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan are one of the most followed Bollywood couples. The actors, who were once co-stars, tied the knot in 1973 and have completed 52 years of marital bliss today. On the occasion, Big B took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to express gratitude to fans who extended their good wishes to the couple on their special day. Rare, unseen photos of the couple from their wedding day are also doing the rounds on social media.

Photos from Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan’s wedding ceremony have flooded social media. In the gold throwback, the couple could be seen dressed to the nines as they perform the rituals on their big day. The actors famously tied the knot in an impromptu wedding ceremony after Big B’s father, Harivansh Rai Bachchan, stopped the actor and his then-girlfriend, Jaya, from travelling outside the country without getting married first.
