Amitabh Omits Aishwarya & Aaradhya Mentions on KBC, Adds More Fuel To Abhishek Divorce Rumours

November 1, 2024: Amid ongoing rumours about a possible split between Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai, Amitabh Bachchan’s recent omissions on Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 have only added fuel to the fire. The veteran actor’s comments—or rather, lack of them—have led to a flurry of speculation, especially on social media, where fans and observers alike have been quick to notice the apparent distancing from his daughter-in-law and granddaughter.

In a recent episode of the popular quiz show, a question featured the famous song Kajra Re, a chart-topping hit that starred Amitabh, Abhishek, and Aishwarya together. The song is remembered not only for its catchy tune and energetic choreography but also for the unique on-screen family collaboration, with father, son, and daughter-in-law sharing the screen. However, while discussing the song, Amitabh spoke warmly about Abhishek and Rani Mukherjee, who also starred in the film Bunty Aur Babli, yet conspicuously left out any mention of Aishwarya. The omission did not go unnoticed, and it quickly became a topic of conversation online, with viewers questioning whether this was a deliberate oversight or simply a coincidence.

This wasn’t the only time Amitabh left fans scratching their heads. In another recent episode, Amitabh shared affectionate memories about his grandchildren. While he spoke glowingly about Navya Naveli and Agastya Nanda, the children of his daughter Shweta Bachchan, he did not mention Aaradhya, Abhishek and Aishwarya’s daughter. Given that Amitabh is known to be a doting grandfather and often speaks fondly of his family, the omission was seen by many as significant. It further fuelled speculation that there may be an internal rift within the family or that they may be subtly distancing themselves from Aishwarya and Aaradhya amidst the divorce rumours.

The persistent rumours about Abhishek and Aishwarya’s marriage troubles have been circulating for months. Reports have suggested that the couple has not been seen together in public for over a year, adding to the speculation. While Abhishek has reportedly denied any marital issues, Aishwarya has remained silent, and her absence from joint public appearances with Abhishek has only added to the gossip. Traditionally a private family, the Bachchans have refrained from directly addressing the rumours, but the lack of clarity has left fans eagerly analysing every word and gesture for potential signs.

Social media has been abuzz with comments, with many fans speculating on the possible reasons behind Amitabh’s recent choices on Kaun Banega Crorepati. Some believe that the omissions could signal tension within the family, while others think it might simply be a coincidence blown out of proportion. However, the timing of these instances, given the swirling rumors around Aishwarya and Abhishek’s relationship, has made it difficult for fans to dismiss as mere oversight.

Some observers have pointed out that the Bachchans, known for their close-knit family values and dignified public appearances, have traditionally managed to keep private matters under wraps. Yet, the current situation feels different, especially with Aishwarya’s recent decision to stay out of the limelight, often attending high-profile events alone or with her daughter but without Abhishek. While this could be a personal choice, in the context of the recent rumors, her silence has led to further curiosity and concern among fans.

The divorce rumors first surfaced earlier this year and were quickly dismissed by Abhishek, who reportedly emphasized the strength of his relationship with Aishwarya. However, their absence from joint public events, paired with these recent interactions (or lack thereof) on Amitabh’s show, has reignited conversations about a potential separation. The lack of a direct statement from Aishwarya has only heightened the intrigue.

This situation has also drawn attention to the dynamics within celebrity families and the pressure of public scrutiny. Being one of Bollywood’s most iconic families, the Bachchans have always attracted public interest. But this kind of relentless curiosity has often placed them in challenging situations, where every word or gesture is dissected by fans and the media. For now, fans are left guessing as the Bachchans continue to maintain a dignified silence on the matter.

As of now, there’s no official confirmation or denial from the family about these speculations, leaving it up to fans and the public to interpret what they see. Whether Amitabh’s omissions on Kaun Banega Crorepati were intentional or coincidental, they have undoubtedly kept the rumor mill churning, sparking intense speculation and keeping fans on the edge of their seats.

Only time will tell if the Bachchans will address these rumors directly or if they will choose to let the speculation fade with time. For now, the Bollywood world is watching closely, and each subtle hint—intentional or otherwise—will continue to fuel the mystery surrounding one of Bollywood’s most talked-about couples.
