Jaya Bachchan Opens Up About The ‘Red Flags’ In A Relationship; Veteran Actress Says, ‘Hate It When People Say Tu Or Tum, Feels Disrespectful’
Veteran Bollywood actress Jaya Bachchan is known for never mincing her words. From talking rudely to the paparazzi and expressing her thoughts with blunt statements she often makes the headlines. While her straightforward personality is lauded by the netizens, many even call her out. She is currently appearing on her granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda’s podcast What The Hell Navya, where her candid confessions are taking the internet by storm. In the recent episode of the second season of the show, she and her daughter Shweta Bachchan spoke to Navya at length about modern dating.

The 75-year-old actress even shared her two cents on what according to her can be considered red flags in a relationship. Talking about it on the podcast, she revealed that in a relationship, bad manners are considered a red flag. She hates it when someone refers to their partner as tum or tu as it is very disrespectful. Quote by Bollywood Life, Bachchan said, “I hate it when people say ‘tu’ or ‘tum.’ Have you ever heard me referring to nana (grandfather, Amitabh Bachchan) as ‘tum?’ It feels disrespectful.” ALSO READ: THROWBACK!

Further adding to her mother’s point, Shweta added that violence of any form, be it physical or verbal is a red flag for her. She stated that a person should behave or do things their partner doesn’t fight. She even went on to add that if a person says sorry to their partner after a fight, they should not drag it out.
