But an anecdote of both is quite funny. It is said that this happened once when Jaya had driven Sanjeev away from the sets of the film itself.
49 year old interesting story
This story is related to the set of ‘Naya Din Nai Raat’. This story of about 49 years ago is quite interesting. Sanjeev and Jaya were shooting for this film. This film was released in 1974. Sanjeev Kumar played not one or two but 9 characters in this classic cult film. There was also a scene in the film when Sanjeev was in the role of a beggar, which he played in such a wonderful way that even Jaya herself could not recognize him.
When Jaya banished Sanjeev from the set
According to media reports, Sanjeev Kumar’s make-up in the role of a beggar was so spectacular that even those with him could not recognize him. Jaya was also among them. Jaya Bachchan was sleeping when Sanjeev took this getup. A joke came to Sanjeev’s mind and he reached Jaya and started begging. As soon as Jaya woke up, she got scared and got angry seeing the beggar in front of her. She mistook Sanjeev for a real beggar and started driving him away. Jaya called the security and asked them to take her out. Security also started taking out Sanjeev who became a beggar.
This is how Sanjeev was identified
When no one could recognize Sanjeev, then Sanjeev started talking in his own voice. Everyone present on the set was shocked to hear his voice. Jaya was also shocked. He felt very ashamed of his actions. Later, he also apologized to Sanjeev for this and praised him fiercely.
