Many stories related to Jeetendra’s life are very interesting. One such incident occurred during the shooting of the film ‘Maqsad’. Jitendra and Rajesh Khanna took a unique step together on the set of this film. At that time there were reports of tension between Jaya Prada and Sridevi and both were not even talking to each other. To normalize the situation between the two, Jitendra and Rajesh closed them for one hour in the same makeup room to remove their misconceptions. But when the room opened, both of them had back towards each other and they did not say even a word. However, the tension between the two gradually decreased over time.

Jeetendra fell in love with Shobha Kapoor, trying his luck in Hindi films. At that time, Shobha was only 14 years old.

After success in films, their marriage was decided in 1973, but the marriage was postponed due to Jeetendra’s illness.
