Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, on Sunday, took a stroll down memory lane and reminisced about pairing opposite his wife Jaya Bachchan for the first time in movies.

“Our first film together .. ‘Bansi aur Birju’ .. released Sept 1, 1970 .. that’s 49 years ago,” he wrote on Instagram.

Directed by Prakash Verma, ‘Bansi Aur Birju’ revolves around the story of Bansi (Big B) and Birju (Jaya) who get married in their village. But the drama unfolds when the villagers find out that Bansi is a prostitute.

Big B also shared a black and white still from the movie, wherein he can be seen hugging Jaya.
