Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan live separately, claims Indian politician

Former SP leader says he's blamed for every rift that transpires in India

Former Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh, once famous for being on the most cordial of terms with Bollywood's first family, has aired a rather shocking claim about Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan's marriage.



The Indian politician claimed that Amitabh and Jaya had been living separately even before he met the former, Miss Kyra reported.

"People blame me for every possible rift in the country. When the Ambanis split, they projected me as the person who created the Mahabharat between them. It wasn't me. People have said the same about me and the Bachchans. But even before I met Amitabh Bachchan, he and Jaya Bachchan were living separately. One of them was living in Pratiksha and the other in Janak," he said.



"There were also speculations about a problem between Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Jaya. I am not responsible for that," Amar added. Amitabh's friendship with the former SP leader turned sour after differences cropped up between Jaya and the latter.
