Am fed up...I also have a role to play here: Jaya Bachchan on Abhishek being referred to as Amitabh Bachchan's son

MUMBAI: The Bachchans are asking the industry's bigwigs. And back in 2007, Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan, and Shweta Nanda Bachchan had another mega star joining the family. To take you back in time a little bit, Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan got married in a grand wedding ceremony in 2007.

We now came across this old video of Jaya Bachchan gushing over her new bahu. 

Former actress and now a politician, there was a time when Jaya used to not shy away from media interactions or appearing on chat shows. One such show which she appeared on was Koffee With Karan back in 2007 -- the same year Abhishek and Aishwarya got married.  

Well, the actress couldn't stop gushing about Aishwarya in one of the show's segments. In the video, Jaya also expresses her disappointment over how Abhishek is always addressed as 'Amitabh Bachchan's son'. To this, she said, 'Am fed up.. you know I also have a role to play here. Nobody ever thinks of that.'

However, that disappointment is short lived when Karan asks her about the new bride in the house. 'Do you think she (Aishwarya) is the perfect choice for the family?' To this, Jaya replied, 'She's lovely. I just love her. I think so (she is the perfect choice for the family). I think it's wonderful because she is such a big star herself. Another beautiful thing is that she has fitted in so well.'
