Rekha had once shared how Amitabh Bachchan's wife Jaya Bachchan reacted to their love scenes in hit film Muqaddar Ka Sikandar

We still can't take our eyes off the sizzling chemistry between Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha in their films like Silsila, Do Anjaane etc. They kept the eyes and heart of the audience captive as they delivered so many hit films together. 

By the end of the 1970's the news of Rekha and Amitabh's alleged love affair made its way on all cover stories, national headlines and interviews, considering he was already married to Jaya Bhaduri. He fell in love with his co-actor Rekha on the sets of 'Do Anjaane' (1976)

Talking about the same, the veteran actress had said that she could see her crying during their love scenes. Rekha, who saw this from the projection room, was quoted saying, "Once I was looking at the whole [Bachchan] family through the projection room when they came to see the trial show of Muqaddar Ka Sikandar. Jaya was sitting in the front row and he and his parents were in the row behind her. They couldn’t see her as clearly as I could. And during our love scenes, I could see tears pouring down her face."
Jaya once spoke about the alleged affair of Amitabh and Rekha and how she managed to keep the marriage intact for these many years after speculations about the affair were picking up pace. While speaking to People magazine, she said, “By just leaving him alone. You have to have the conviction. I married a good man and a family that believes in commitment. (Thinks) You must not get too possessive, especially in our profession, where you know things aren’t going to be easy. You can either drive the artist crazy, or you can help him or her grow. And if he goes, he was never yours (smiles)”.

In an old interview with Stardust, Rekha had revealed how Amitabh's wife Jaya Bachchan had reacted to his love scenes with Rekha in the film Muqaddar Ka Sikandar released in 1978. 

Rekha has reportedly said that she saw her crying during their love scenes.  "Once I was looking at the whole [Bachchan] family through the projection room when they came to see the trial show of Muqaddar Ka Sikandar. Jaya was sitting in the front row and he and his parents were in the row behind her. They couldn't see her as clearly as I could. And during our love scenes, I could see tears pouring down her face," Rekha said.

Rekha also stated after the trial show, and the producer informed her that Amitabh wouldn't work with her again.
