Thank you for watching :) Have you seen Silsila? Is the affair rumor still a mystery or do you think we solved it this episode? Also shout out my mom for going along with my madness and doing this! 🙈
I watched it when I loved the dialogue and songs so much that I spent the summer between 3rd grade and 4th grade watching it on repeat. This American kid learned to speak Hindi/Urdu and developed a love of poetry because of this movie. It was interesting to hear the back story. I was surprised you found it slow. I will now have to rewatch it.
The duty was super important for their marriage, but it would've been nice if there was some emotional attachment too. Otherwise, he could have temporary emotions again and restart the affair :/
@@hotchaipod As I said, emotions are temporary. Jaya Bhaduri is not unknown house wife. She was the more successful, talented, multiple award winner, trained and supremely talented actress, when Amitabh and she got married. See the movie Abhimaan, it is loosely based on their life. Their marriage was a love marriage as well. They had two children. But as I said, emotions change. But you act only on those emotions that do not hinder you from your duty. If we act on all emotions, then what is the difference between us and an animal. We need to have self control when required.
Agree for their real life, it just would've been nice to see more of their love marriage interpreted into the film as well. It made it seem all obligation no love.
The Yash Chopra quote from a BBC was about the rumoured affair and film affair coming together. If Yash Chopra openly said that, would Amitabh works with him in Veer Zaara, would Abhishek work with his production house! It’s ridiculous to think Yash Chopra would say there was an affair. Nobody could work on a film if they were having an affair.
Yash Chopra did say it was his girlfriend to the BBC. I don't think Amitabh cared because it was true, and they maintained a long friendship for the rest of Yashji's life.
@ Anyone would care if it was wrong. Yash Chopra did not say Rekha was his girlfriend, he said the gossip rumours are implying that she is his girlfriend and having them together in a love triangle is tricky, but no other casting was working. Nobody could play Amitabh’s wife better as Jaya and nobody was as good as his lover like Rekha. Amitabh always denied this affair and he would never work with him if he said that. To think that people in a real relationship would act in a film in their real affair is absurd. Especially Jaya agreeing to be part of a film if rumours were true, she would never work in any Yashraj film if Yash Chopra said their affair was true.
Yash Chopra ji for first time Confirmed Amit ji and Rekha ji affairs for first time in BBC Tanya Deol interview in 1998,there was audio recording which was deleted from you tube 10 years back ,again in the year when Silsila was premiered in Sony Tv in 1998 ,after Royal massacre of Nepal Royal family ,Amit ji was ecstatic that his extra marital affairs would in real ,come out open in Celluloid ,and this was one of his greatest desire ,which Yash Chopra ,expressed with use of Poetry and his craftmanship ,he did not want to charector assassinate Amit ji personal life ,that is why Jaya is presented as his Bhabhi ,who is not first love of Amit ji ,but Rekha is his first love ,quite Contrary to what World knows that Jaya ji was his first love .Yash Chopra always Criticised Amit ji after his down fall in year 1988 when Jadugar was a flop ,Amit ji was in financial and professional failure ,when he approached Yash Chopra for work in Mohbatein ,Yash Chopra made it very Clear that he has Boman Irani in his mind as his first Choice and Amit ji as Second Choice @@AshokSingh-wu1dl
@this is not true. The Bachchan family would not work with Yash Chopra if he said there was an affair. They would not invite him to Amitabh’s 70th birthday celebration. If there was an affair, there is no way Jaya would act in Silsila. Screen posted a story on Mohabbatein in 2000 where Aditya mentioned he had Amitabh in mind since DDLJ days for Mohabbatein. Saying Boman Irani was considered is absurd. He was unknown then and a big name was needed for confrontation scenes with SRK.
@@hotchaipod ikr.. Jaya is projection max!! if my marriage is unsuccessful, let me ruin abhi-karisma, abhi-ash! etc etc.. she cant take that she is #2 in Amit jis heart. #fact though.
Amitabh and Rekha affair was only a rumour for gossip magazines. Both denied any affair on camera and in print. No credible source has proven they were having an affair. If it was true, they would never make a film on it. That’s ludicrous, especially Jaya agreeing to be part of a film that she knows about any affair! Both Amitabh and Jaya are happily married for over 50 years. Also in 1981, Amitabh was called a one man industry and his films were not flopping. Silsila was a Silver Jubilee hit running for over 25 weeks.
It is sad that people make a video and talk about a film and you wonder have they seen the film recently? They say Amitabh came back to Jaya in the end because he she was pregnant. He did not know that when he and Rekha decided to end their affair. It was the events at his friend’s parents wedding anniversary. The thoughts of leaving someone you vowed to be with for the rest of your life was with him for awhile. He found about Jaya’s pregnancy when he came to the plane crash site. Many of the comments are not researched except for gossip magazines. Silsila was a Silver Jubilee hit running for over 25 weeks.
Some of that is untrue actually. We rewatched the entire film a day before recording! He was slowly realizing the public wouldn't accept his affair with rekha in the movie, and thinking about his marital vows. But there was no decision or declaration made until Jaya reveals she's pregnant. So it's a combo of society, religion and his unborn son aka him having a. *duty* to the marriage vs pure love. But thank you for watching and starting a dialogue!
@@hotchaipod Amitabh and Rekha talk about ending their affair at the wedding anniversary and when Amitabh has visions of him and Jaya getting married when he sees the older couple, he realizes that he vowed to be married forever, that scene confirms he can’t leave her. The scene when Jaya tells him she is pregnant comes after during the plane crash.
@@AshokSingh-wu1dl I agree with you but to me that still says it was duty more than love. But thank you so much for watching and the dialogue, you know a ton about the film! ❤
Maybe Jaya did the movie, so that she could be on the sets.Otherwise some other actress would have done it, and Rekha had another golden opportunity of being with Amitabh. She was just testing , how low could Amitabh and Rekha stoop?And thankfully they took a dignified decision. All emotions are not to be acted upon.

Why people feel duty is not important? And emotions are everything?Believe it or not, emotions are temporary.

loving the new intro song
My best friend is a musical genius 👯
Amazing🎉🎉
Relationships are very nuanced and people stay in unhappy marriages and relationships instead of looking inward and not judging themselves
true there are all sorts of reasons. or starting to blame themselves for the problems and trying to control the situation more.

I hadn't considered that...smart.
Loving the duo!
It’s common for women to wear sindoor when not married in Mangalore, so it does happen
Just looked it up and you're right! That's so interesting
@ my cousin went to college in mangalore and told me about it
