I
Don't
Think
Jaya
Bachchan
Is
A
Petty
Person
On
the
famous
chat
show
'Rendezvous
With
Simi
Garewal',
Rekha
was
asked
about
the
relationship
that
she
shared
with
Jaya
Bachchan.
To
which
she
had
said,
''I
don't
think
she's
a
petty
person
or
so
insecure."
Amitabh
Makes
Jaya
Insecure
When
Simi
said,
"Yes,
and
a
woman
is
so
secure
because
the
man
has
given
her
the
security," Rekha
disagreed
with
it
and
said,
"Not
really."
Big
B
Wants
To
Protect
His
Family
However,
this
was
not
the
only
time
when
Rekha
talked
about
her
affair
openly,
earlier
when
she
was
asked
by
a
leading
film
magazine
about
Amitabh's
denial,
she
had
said,
"Why
should
he
have
not
done
it?
He
did
it
to
protect
his
image,
to
protect
his
family,
to
protect
his
children.
I
think
it
is
beautiful,
I
don't
care
what
the
public
thinks
of
it.''
I
Love
Him
''Why
should
the
public
know
of
my
love
for
him
or
his
love
for
me?
I
love
him,
he
loves
me
-
that's
it!
I
don't
care
what
anybody
thinks.
If
he'd
reacted
that
way
towards
me
in
private,
I
would
have
been
very
disappointed.
But
has
he
ever
done
that?
I
ask
you.''
Mr
Bachchan
Does
Not
Want
To
Hurt
His
Wife
''So
why
should
I
care
about
what
he's
said
in
public?
I
know
people
must
be
saying
bechari
Rekha,
pagal
hai
us
par,
phir
bhi
dekho.
Maybe
I
deserve
that
pity.
Not
that
he
has
10
rollicking
affairs!
Mr
Bachchan
is
still
old-fashioned.
He
doesn't
want
to
hurt
anybody,
so
why
hurt
his
wife?"
Fast
Forward
A
few
years
back
Amitabh
Bachchan
told
a
leading
news
channel
that
he
was
open
to
working
with
Rekha
but
due
to
the
lack
of
a
suitable
story
the
two
did
not
act
together
post
Silsila.
