Superstar Amitabh Bachchan’s glorious contribution to Indian cinema has been unparalleled, but his personal life also made quite a lot of noise along with it. The actor who has been married to actress-politician Jaya Bachchan, was also romantically linked to Rekha, which had grabbed several eyeballs. However, his first girlfriend was said to be a British Airways employee whom he had briefly dated before stepping into the film industry actively.
According to India.com, in an interaction with the Meri Saheli podcast, author and film historian Hanif Zaveri revealed that Amitabh Bachchan’s first relationship was with a woman named Maya who was an employee of British Airways. Hanif revealed that the Kalki 2898 AD actor began a whirlwind romance with the woman when he was also working with the same company. The duo were reportedly madly in love but fate had some other plans.
When Amitabh Bachchan was looking forward to pursuing an acting career in Mumbai, he was staying with his uncle in the latter’s bungalow. However, Maya used to visit the Don actor quite frequently and used to be openly flirtatious with him. Bachchan began to fear that her bold persona would not go down well with his mother, Teji Bachchan.
