November 21, 2024: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan recently took to Instagram to celebrate two significant milestones: her daughter Aaradhya’s 13th birthday and the birth anniversary of her late father, Krishnaraj Rai. While her heartfelt post warmed fans’ hearts, the notable absence of Abhishek Bachchan from the celebrations fueled ongoing speculation about their relationship.
Aaradhya Turns 13
In her Instagram post, Aishwarya shared a series of touching images commemorating Aaradhya’s birthday. The photos included Aaradhya bowing before a portrait of her late grandfather, a snapshot of the mother-daughter duo alongside Aishwarya’s mother, Brindya Rai, and a throwback picture of Aishwarya cradling a newborn Aaradhya. Fans also got a glimpse of the glittering birthday celebration held in Mumbai, with Aaradhya beaming in the spotlight of her special day.
Accompanying the post, Aishwarya penned an emotional caption:
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY 2 THE ETERNAL LOVE OF MY LIFE dearest Daddy-Ajjaa and my darling Aaradhya❤️MY HEART… MY SOUL… FOREVER AND BEYOND.”
The heartfelt note seamlessly tied together her love for her late father, who passed away in 2017, and her devotion to Aaradhya.
Fans Question Abhishek’s Absence
While the post celebrated family and love, fans were quick to notice the absence of Aaradhya’s father, Abhishek Bachchan, as well as other members of the Bachchan family, including Amitabh Bachchan. The comment section was flooded with queries about Abhishek’s whereabouts, with users asking, “Where is Abhishek sir?” and “No Bachchan family in the pictures?”
The absence has reignited rumors of marital discord between Aishwarya and Abhishek. However, neither Aishwarya nor Abhishek has addressed these speculations publicly, maintaining their silence despite persistent social media chatter.
Aishwarya’s Recent Projects
On the professional front, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was last seen in Mani Ratnam’s critically acclaimed period drama Ponniyin Selvan: 1. Adapted from Kalki Krishnamurthy’s celebrated historical novel, the film showcased Aishwarya in dual roles, earning her widespread acclaim for her nuanced performances.
Looking Ahead
As Aaradhya steps into her teenage years, Aishwarya continues to prioritize her role as a devoted mother while fans speculate about the dynamics of her personal life. Regardless of the rumors, her latest post stands as a testament to her deep bond with her daughter and her unwavering remembrance of her late father.
