Actors Kangana Ranaut and Jaya Bachchan are commonly known for their strong opinions and voices on several matters. Both of them are actors-turned-politicians but this is not the only thing that is common between them. An old clip recently resurfaced on the internet of Jaya Bachchan revealing why she wasn’t offered as many films after the blow-up of the action genre. But what really caught netizens eyes was that in the old video, Jaya Bachchan resembled Kangana Ranaut. Internet users said she talked and looked just like the Emergency actor!
Young Jaya Bachchan Resembled Kangana Ranaut?
When Jaya Bachchan was asked why she had taken a break from acting, she quipped that it was due to the popularity of the action genre and that she had three kids at home. With a knowing smile at Amitabh Bachchan, he swiftly clarified that the three in issue were Abhishek Bachchan, Shweta Bachchan, and himself. Fans did, however, notice Jaya’s resemblance to Kangana Ranaut in both appearance and voice.
One user commented, “So Kangana sounds exactly like young Jaya you mean” while another said, “Omg… Shocked.. Lip movements, giggles, pauses.. Everything is so same.. Even the features resemblance is seen….. voice too…” Internet users even suggested Kangana Ranaut play Jaya Bachchan in a film. They said, “Now she can play her as well”
Meanwhile, Kangana Ranaut will soon appear in Emergency. Before Kangana Ranaut’s film Emergency encountered release delays owing to controversy, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) granted it for a ‘UA’ certificate on the condition of three changes and giving factual sources for specific historical quotations. These included words by US President Richard Nixon on Indian women and Winston Churchill’s remark about Indians “breeding like rabbits,” as reported by The Sunday Express.
