Fans Thank Kajol For Making Jaya Bachchan Smile, Even Laugh On Camera: ‘Should Get An Oscar’ | Video

Jaya Bachchan, known for her “angry woman” image due to her strict stance with fans and paparazzi, gave everyone a rare treat during Durga Puja. The veteran actress-turned-politician, who dislikes it when

people get too casual or cross a boundary, did something unimaginable. She was seen smiling ear to ear at the North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja pandal.

In a video from the festivities that surfaced on Instagram, Jaya was seen visiting the Durga Puja pandal organised by actress Kajol and the Mukerji family in Mumbai on Ashtami on September 30. Like always, Jaya and Kajol posed for the cameras. But the ever-mischivous Kajol had a little surprise in store. As the duo finished clicking pictures together, she stepped aside and urged the veteran actress to pose solo for the photographers.

Jaya Bachchan Posed Solo While Smiling Ear To Ear

Though Kajol’s words were inaudible in the clip, her playful gestures made it clear what she wanted Jaya Bachchan to do. Initially shocked and confused, the latter hesitated but then, much to everyone’s delight, she gave in. For the shutterbugs, it was a rare sight, a once-in-a-blue-moon type of thing. And the credit entirely goes to the Baazigar actress for managing to do the unthinkable.

As seen in the video, Jaya Bachchan, who is not particularly fond of taking solo pictures, was seen smiling brightly and even laughing while posing for the cameras. She looked graceful in a gorgeous red saree paired with a pearl necklace and dainty earrings. Kajol, who was standing a little away, cheered her on.

The video of Jaya smiling soon caught the attention of the Internet, and they loved watching the actress in such a jolly mood.

When Jaya Bachchan Explained Why She Gets Angry With Paps

In a viral clip, Jaya Bachchan was seen explaining to the paparazzi that she gets frustrated when the media takes her photos in a conspicuous manner.
