In a heartfelt Instagram post, Sushant condemned the \u201cmerciless trolling and verbal abuse&#8221; directed at Jaya, urging people to look beyond the viral clips and understand the woman behind the public image.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><strong>\u201cPeople Say the Nastiest Things About Her&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">Sushant began their emotional note by addressing the negativity Jaya Bachchan faces online. \u201cThere is this narrative that has been created about her, and it\u2019s appalling to see how people that know nothing about her have been so quick to jump on the bandwagon and have said the nastiest things about this lady,&#8221; they wrote.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><strong>\u201cJaya Ji Helped Hundreds of Kids Silently&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">Recalling their first encounter with Jaya Bachchan, Sushant shared a touching story from when they were just 14 years old. Their parents were organizing the first-ever quiz competition for visually impaired, hearing-impaired, and autistic children with a Mumbai-based NGO, DEEDS. After several celebrities declined to participate, three stars \u2014 Raveena Tandon, Yuvraj Singh, and Jaya Bachchan \u2014 graciously agreed to attend the event free of cost.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Sushant revealed that Jaya Bachchan not only attended but stayed in touch with their mother afterward, continuing to help numerous children across cities and villages. \u201cShe helped several children with education, monthly and yearly rations, and even supported their families with essential goods,&#8221; Sushant wrote. \u201cIn return, she only asked that the media not be there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><strong>Jaya\u2019s Quiet Acts of Kindness<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">Sushant also revealed that Jaya once hosted a special screening of Paa for children living with HIV, followed by another screening for children battling cancer. \u201cShe even offered her home theatre to ensure the kids and their parents didn\u2019t risk allergies due to their fragile immunity,&#8221; they wrote.<\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">Calling her \u201cone of the most splendid artistes of the Indian film industry,&#8221; Sushant described Jaya as someone who \u201cchooses to quietly change lives&#8221; without seeking attention. \u201cEveryone has an opinion without knowing a person, and here is someone who has made so many live and smile,&#8221; the note added.<\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\"><strong>\u201cI Want to Be Like Her&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\">In the caption accompanying the post, Sushant expressed their deep admiration for Jaya Bachchan. \u201cSo much going on in the world and yet, we choose to troll someone we know nothing about! Pranaam to Jaya Ji \u2014 I love her! I\u2019ve always told my mumma I wanted to be as graceful and giving as her when I grow up,&#8221; they wrote, tagging Amitabh and Abhishek Bachchan as well.<\/p>\n<p id=\"11\" class=\"story_para_11\"><strong>Internet Supports Sushant\u2019s Stand<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"12\" class=\"story_para_12\">Sushant\u2019s post has received widespread appreciation, with fans and users lauding them for shedding light on Jaya Bachchan\u2019s humanitarian work. One comment read, \u201cAll she wishes is for Indians to have more respect and civic sense in public settings.&#8221; Another added, \u201cWe\u2019re in an age where we\u2019re putting an elderly woman on blast for being annoyed at rage-baiting paparazzi. Shameful.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"13\" class=\"story_para_13\"><strong>About Jaya Bachchan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"14\" class=\"story_para_14\">Known for her iconic performances in films like Guddi, Abhimaan, and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Jaya Bachchan has been vocal about her dislike for intrusive paparazzi culture. While often misunderstood for her stern demeanour, stories like Sushant\u2019s remind fans of the compassion and warmth that lie beneath her reserved exterior.<\/p>\n<p id=\"15\" class=\"story_para_15\">Jaya was last seen in Karan Johar\u2019s 2023 film Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, alongside Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Yatamanyu Narain\" title=\"Yatamanyu Narain\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/11\/yatamanyu-mugshot-2023-11-7f9203925373293b28c59bc745fb612f.jpeg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/yatamanyu-narain-22555.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Yatamanyu Narain<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Yatamanyu Narain is a Sub-Editor at News18.com with a passion for all things entertainment.
