Speculation has been rife on social media after a photo surfaced showing Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan at a recent birthday bash hosted by filmmaker Subhash Ghai. The viral image, where Aishwarya appears to be glaring at her husband, has led many to wonder if the couple had a disagreement before arriving at the event.

Aishwarya and Abhishek, who both looked stunning—she in a blue heavy Anarkali suit and he in a sharp grey suit—were seen smiling and posing together for the cameras as they entered the party. Despite their seemingly happy demeanor, the viral photo has prompted social media users to speculate that all was not well between the two.

Comments on the photo ranged from light-hearted to serious, with some users suggesting that the couple might be like any other ordinary Indian family, where arguments and tense moments are not uncommon before stepping out. “They seem just like us—sometimes there’s a fight before leaving the house, and by the time you arrive at the event, no one is in the best mood,” one user noted.

This isn’t the first time that rumors of tension between the couple have surfaced. Similar reports emerged last year during a Diwali party hosted by designer Manish Malhotra, where it was also rumored that Aishwarya and Abhishek had a disagreement before arriving at the celebration.

Despite the speculations and occasional trolling, the couple continues to maintain a strong public image, often being seen as “couple goals” by their fans. They regularly appear together at public events, where they project unity and affection, countering any negative narratives that may arise.

As public figures, Aishwarya and Abhishek are no strangers to scrutiny. While the latest rumors have created a buzz, it remains clear that they are committed to their relationship, showcasing their bond even amidst the inevitable ups and downs that every couple faces.
