Nineteen-year-old
Jiah Khan says she fell in love with Amitabh Bachchan
while shooting, but could not express it. Now, she plans
to write him a letter!
Having
spent 20 days in close proximity (shooting for Ram Gopal
Varma's Nishabd) with Amitabh Bachchan, Ramu's new
discovery Jiah Khan is yet to recover from the Bachchan
spell.
But the
sexy 19-year-old is clear that she doesn't want to come
out of the spell! "It's a beautiful world I have
created," she says bashfully.
"He
is immensely sexy and smells so good. When Mr Bachchan
would enter the sets, I would tell everyone it's him,
without even seeing who's come because of his
perfume." |

It's
clear that nothing charges the dusky beauty up as
much as the Bachchan topic. So, has Mr Bachchan
become the object of her affection?
"In a way, yes... I think I've fallen in love
with Mr Bachchan. He is the most charming man I
have ever met in my life. But he is married!
I have never admitted my feelings to anybody.
Please don't make me blush more," she says,
going red in the face. "I have always told
the guys I dated that I will fall in love with
someone who will make me laugh. Mr Bachchan has
done that. He is everything that I wish for in a
guy. Intelligent, humourous, magnetic and
protective..."

She
recalls the time they spent together while
shooting. "He would crack jokes but most of
the time, would keep to himself.
One day, during our shoot he told me that I suited
my character in the film (rebellious and in love
with an older man) very well. I don't know what he
meant by that," she says.
She was
also flattered when he told her that he has to learn
acting from her since she's from the Lee Strasberg acting
school.

Jiah is
from London has been brought up single-handedly by her
mother Raabiya.
Even
though she doesn't miss her father, she's aware that a
girl who grows up without a father seeks 'a father figure'
unconsciously in every man she meets. So, are the feelings
for Mr Bachchan an unconscious way of seeking a father
figure?
"Maybe.
The costumes in this film are very bold, wild and
revealing. When I'd dress up and come in front of Mr
Bachchan, he would look at me from top to bottom with a
very disapproving and confused look. So sometimes, he came
across as fatherly."
Now, with
the shooting over, Jiah is suddenly lost because she had
to abruptly part ways with the man she adores. "He
just came, shook hands and left. I had so many things to
tell him which I couldn't," she says with sadness.
"Now,
I'm writing a letter to him, expressing whatever I
felt," she says.
