In an interview Jaya once 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 definitely felt he was different though people laughed at me when I said that. I voiced 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.”
For Amitabh, the sets of movie Ek Nazar proved to be a turning point. He fell for Jaya. But this was just a beginning of what later laid a strong foundation of their timeless relationship.
