November 18, 2024: Rumours of a split between Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan have been making headlines recently, with speculations intensifying after no public birthday wishes were extended to Aishwarya by the Bachchan family on her November 1 birthday. Amid this speculation, a heartfelt moment featuring Abhishek has gone viral, captured in the promotional material for his upcoming film I Want To Talk, directed by Shoojit Sircar.
In the promo, Abhishek, playing the role of a father, is seen emotionally engaging with his on-screen daughter. He says, “I am very hurt,” to which his little co-star replies, “Why are you hurt? I’m hurt.” This tender exchange between the two characters has resonated with audiences.
Behind the Scenes: Abhishek’s Transformation
At a recent music launch for I Want To Talk, Abhishek revealed an amusing detail about his preparation for the role. “My pot-bellied look in the film isn’t prosthetic; it’s all me,” he humorously admitted. He added, “Trust me, at my age, it gets very difficult to lose it after a while. Don’t ever put on weight for a film again.”
Reflecting on Relationship Challenges
As the rumour mill churns, an old interview with Aishwarya has resurfaced, where she candidly discussed the dynamics of her relationship with Abhishek. “There’s a lot of adjustment, a lot of give and take. There will be agreements and disagreements, but it’s important to keep the communication going,” she shared with Filmfare.
“Abhishek has been wonderful in respecting that,” Aishwarya added, emphasizing the importance of communication and friendship in a marriage. She said, “Neither of us fits into a rule book. It’s about sharing time together and being sensitive to each other.”
While the public speculates about the state of their marriage, Abhishek and Aishwarya’s mutual respect and support for one another have often shone through in interviews and public appearances. For now, fans are eagerly awaiting the release of I Want To Talk and hoping for clarity on the speculated rift.
