We are talking about a film that was telecast almost daily. It is a tale so deeply etched in our memories that even without naming it you know the bond of a stern father a silent son and a love that grew without words. Guess the film? Umm.. any guesses which is this movie we are talking about? Okay one last hint — the husband who couldnt read a single word ensured his wife wore the officer’s uniform… then built an empire of his own.  I’m sure you must have guessed it right! Yes we are talking about Sooryavansham.  We know almost everything about the lead actor Amitabh Bachchan but do we know about the lead actress Jayasudha who is a popular South actress?  Jayasudhas iconic role as Amitabh Bachchans on-screen wife in Sooryavansham continues to captivate audiences to this day. However her personal life has often overshadowed her professional achievements with her three marriages making headlines. Her third marriage at 62 sparked intense discussion and scrutiny keeping her in the news for reasons beyond her cinematic legacy. Do you know Jayasudha is also the real-life sister-in-law of iconic actor Jitendra? Jayasudhas first marriage to film producer Vadde Ramesh in 1982 was short-lived ending in divorce.  She then married Nitin Kapoor Jitendras brother and a film producer in 1985. Their sons have followed in their parents footsteps making a mark in the South film industry. Reportedly tragedy struck in 2017 when Nitin Kapoor Jitendras brother took his own life by jumping from the sixth floor of his Andheri residence. Reports suggest he had been battling depression. Jayasudha was left to raise their children alone after his passing. Jayasudhas third marriage at the age of 62 Later according to several media reports Jayasudhas third marriage at the age of 62 surprised everyone as she had married an NRI. But Jayasudha called these reports a rumour and clarified that he is a filmmaker. He wanted to make a biopic on her and that is the reason why he is seen with her all the time. From a teenage debutante to a seasoned star Jayasudhas work in Tamil and Telugu cinema is impressive. Often likened to contemporaries Sridevi and Jaya Prada for her pan-South appeal Jayasudha has carved out her niche in the industry earning her a lasting legacy.
