Markandey Katju Confesses Having Crush On Jayalalithaa

Former Justice Markandey Katju doesn't shy away from speaking his mind and is known for not mincing words. Katju took to social media and professed his love for late Tamil Nadu chief minister J. Jayalalithaa on his Facebook wall.

His Facebook post reads as:

"Jayalalitha

When I was young I had a crush on Jayalalitha, whom I thought (was) very beautiful, though of course it was unrequited love, and she had no idea about it. She was born in February 1948, while I was born in September 1946. I met her for the first time in November 2004 in Raj Bhawan in Chennai where I went to take oath as Chief Justice of Madras High Court, and she was then the Chief Minister. Even then she was beautiful, though of course I could not tell her about my feeling for her in my youth, as that would have been inappropriate. Here she is in a song”.

Earlier too, Katju reminisced his love for Jayalalithaa when she was taken ill last year and was admitted in Apollo hospital in Chennai. In his post he reminisced about meeting her for only two times. He also shared a picture of the duo sitting on either side of the table captioning it “Sherni aur Sher”.
