In recent weeks, speculation surrounding the marriage of Bollywood stars Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai has been rife, with rumors suggesting that the couple might be heading for a separation. These rumors gained traction after the couple was seen making separate appearances at Anant and Radhika’s wedding, followed by Aishwarya taking her daughter on a solo vacation. Such incidents have led to increased gossip about the state of their relationship.

Amid these swirling rumors, Abhishek Bachchan decided to address the issue directly. In a recent interview, he firmly dismissed the speculation, asserting that he and Aishwarya are still married. He criticized the unfounded rumors, stating that people were indulging in baseless talk without knowing the real situation.

Adding another layer to the ongoing conversation, a video featuring Jaya Bachchan, Abhishek’s mother, has recently gone viral.

When asked whether she was strict with Aishwarya after her marriage to Abhishek, Jaya’s response was straightforward: “She is my daughter-in-law, not my daughter. Why should I be strict with her? I am sure her mother has taken care of that.”
