Konkona Sen Sharma on Jaya Bachchan's paparazzi interactions: 'I love her no-nonsense attitude'

Actor Konkana Sen Sharma has talked about her bond with the veteran actor and politician Jaya Bachchan and called her one of the gems. She has also discussed her banters with shutterbugs.

In an exclusive conversation with E Times, Konkana said, 'She’d tell us a lot of funny stories when we used to chat. I love her attitude even today when she scolds the paparazzi. I love her no-nonsense attitude. I love the way she carries herself with so much dignity, grace, and humour. She is one of the gems.'

Talking about her bond with Jaya, she added, 'I also have wonderful memories of her from Laga Chunari Mein Daag. We were shooting in Benaras (Varanasi) for so long. It was early in my career and it was one of the longest outdoor shoots. So, I was naturally homesick. She took me under her wings. And I will always be grateful. Of course, Dada (Pradeep Sarkar) and Rani (Mukerji) were fab. But Jaya di was special. I felt loved and protected by her warmth.'

Konkona Sen Sharma worked with Jaya Bachchan in 'Laga Chunari Mein Daag' (2007).

On the work front, Konkona Sen was last seen in Vishal Bhardwaj’s 'Kuttey'. She will next star in her mother Aparna Sen’s movie 'The Rapist'. She also has the Netflix web series 'Soup'.
