Ahead of Holi 2025, Amitabh Bachchan joined hands with his wife, Jaya Bachchan, to celebrate the auspicious Holika Dahan.
Holi festivities have already started at the Bachchan household! After bidding adieu to the 16th season of KBC, Bollywood’s Big-B, aka, Amitabh Bachchan, seemed to be embracing the festive spirit with his family. Ahead of Holi 2025, the megastar joined hands with his wife, veteran actress, Jaya Bachchan, to celebrate the auspicious Holika Dahan, on March 13, 2025.
Just a while ago, Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter, Navya Naveli Nanda, took to her social media to share some glimpses from an intimate pre-Holi celebration at the iconic Bachchan residence, Jalsa. Taking to her IG Stories, Navya shared a heartwarming moment captured through her lens. In the candid click, Amitabh and Jaya were seen sharing a happy moment with the traditional pyre that they set on fire on the backdrop. Big B was seen dressed in a casual tracksuit, paired with a dark jacket and light-coloured shoes. He was seen lovingly holding Jaya Bachchan, who was dressed comfortably in a multi-coloured kaftan maxi dress with her hair tied in a bun. Sharing this adorable moment, Navya wrote a caption celebrating the beginning of the festival of colours. It read:
“Happy holi (red heart emoji)”
Navya also shared a close-up of the Holika pyre, which was adorned with marigold garlands and flowers around it. After Navya, her mother, Shweta Bachchan, also shared a closeup of her adorable parents, where Amitabh looked lovingly at his wife.
It was during an episode of KBC 16 when Amitabh revealed his sweet gesture for his wife, Jaya Bachchan. During a segment of the popular show, a contestant asked Big B whether Jaya Bachchan frequently requested him to bring something home. The megastar shared that Jaya loves gajra, which is why he always makes sure to purchase one for her whenever he sees it on his way home. He was quoted as saying:
“Jaya Ji ko gajra bahut pasand hai, toh raaste mein jab chhote bacche haar bechne aate hain, toh main unse kharidta hoon aur woh haar kabhi Jaya Ji ko deta hoon ya kabhi gaadi mein rakh leta hoon, kyunki unki mehek acchi lagti hai.”
Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan tied the knot in 1973 and have since been one of the evergreen couples of Bollywood. They share two children, Abhishek Bachchan, a popular actor, and Shweta Bachchan, an author and entrepreneur.
On March 12, 2025, Big B bid an emotional farewell to KBC 16, reminding fans of his return to the next season. This came as a delight to fans as there were prior speculations that the actor might not be returning to the popular show in the next season. Before signing off, Amitabh was heard saying:
“I will see you in the next season.”
On the work front, Amitabh was last seen starring in his very first Tamil film, Vettaiyan, with Rajinikanth. He also starred alongside Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Kamal Haasan in Kalki 2898 AD.
Well, we surely love seeing these rare glimpses between Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan!
