Recently, in a podcast with Mukesh Khanna, Jackie reveals how there were only 3 toilets for seven households, consisting of more than 34 people. He says that he was given special privilege of a private toilet only after his films began to become hits.
The ‘Hero’ actor reveals, “Producers would come and sit on two boxes that we’d arranged as a meeting place. One box in the middle was our table. You could see Marine Drive in front, my house in the back, and my bathroom on the side”
He added, “There were three toilets for seven households. And the households were big, more than 30 people. And in the mornings, queues would form. But I had to rush to shoot. They used to tell me to ‘tham, tham (stop).’ But when my movies became hits, they gave me private sandas.”
