The star couple, who married in 2007, initially teamed up with Ratnam in Guru (2007) and Raavan. Abhishek has a long-standing connection with the director, starting with Yuva (2004). Reflecting on their professional relationship, Abhishek once said, “When Mani Sir came to our house to sign me for Yuva, I was shocked to learn it was me he wanted and not my father, Amitabh Bachchan. Working with him has been a dream come true.”

Rumors about a possible separation between Abhishek and Aishwarya have been making waves online, further intensified after the couple attended a high-profile wedding separately earlier this year. The speculation gained traction when Abhishek liked an Instagram post discussing the rise of “grey divorces” and the complexities of long-term relationships ending later in life. The post read, “Couples who have been married for long are now parting ways. Divorce is never easy for anyone, especially for those who have spent decades together.”
As fans speculate about the state of their relationship, neither Abhishek nor Aishwarya has confirmed or denied these rumors. The couple, who share a daughter, Aaradhya, born in 2011, have maintained a low profile amidst the ongoing buzz.
Professionally, the duo has shared the screen in several films, including Dhai Akshar Prem Ke (2000), Kuch Naa Kaho (2003), Dhoom 2 (2006), Umrao Jaan (2006), Guru (2007), Sarkar Raj (2008), and Raavan (2010).
