Jaya Bachchan: Marriage is Outdated, Don't Want Granddaughter Married

Jaya Bachchan, a respected figure in Indian cinema and politics, recently expressed a controversial opinion on marriage, calling it an outdated concept. She conveyed that in today's world, the legalities of marriage are unnecessary for a relationship's authenticity. Her personal wish is that her granddaughter, Navya, who is approaching 28, does not feel pressured to marry.

Bachchan reflected on the changing times, suggesting younger generations are more astute and may not benefit from traditional advice on marriage. She humorously noted that even her own marriage to Amitabh Bachchan started without signing registers, implying they were married for years before formalizing it. This perspective challenges conventional societal expectations surrounding matrimony.
