Last evening was perfect REWARD When Jaya bachan ji invited us for a lovely dinner - what an inspiring energy I had around me with such lovely ladies One beautiful conversation I would like to share When Vidya Balan Mam asked me "how does it feel to win awards " I said - " I don't think I have still realised what I have got " then Jaya ji sweetly said " yes never realise it " and I am holding on to that thought forever -- #keepworkinghard #justbehonest #grattitude #kausarmunir #seemapahwa #jayabachchan #kokodiaries

Jaya Bachchan was last seen in a cameo in R Balki's Ki And Ka with her husband Amitabh Bachchan. Jaya Bachchan, whose film credits includes titles such as Guddi, Uphaar, Abhimaan and Silsila, features in few films nowadays. But she's kept her association with the film industry and is often spotted at awards shows and other Bollywood events.

Though Jaya Bachchan has taken a sabbatical of sorts, the other three actors in the Bachchan family are quite actively making films. Amitaabh Bachchan is making Thugs Of Hindostan for Yash Raj Films and will later shoot for Karan Johar's trilogy, titled Brahmastra. Her daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was last seen in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and is filming Fanne Khan. Abhishek Bachchan dropped out of JP Dutta's Paltan and has reportedly signed up for Sahir Ludhianvi's biopic.
