Despite no official confirmation from the Bachchan family, the alleged discord between Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and her in-laws continues to attract attention.
Fans have noticed subtle signs of disharmony in the family’s public appearances.
Often, photos feature Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, Shweta Bachchan, and Abhishek Bachchan, notably without Aishwarya and her daughter Aaradhya, suggesting potential trouble.
Additionally, recurring rumors of a split between Abhishek and Aishwarya further fuel suspicion.
At a recent event for Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's wedding, Big B was photographed with his wife Jaya, son Abhishek, daughter Shweta, son-in-law Nikhil Nanda, and grandchildren Navya Naveli Nanda and Agastya Nanda.
Aishwarya, however, skipped the family photo, choosing instead to share a warm hug with veteran actress Rekha before arriving at the photo spot.
Rekha, who has a well-known romantic history with Amitabh, has long been a source of tension within the Bachchan family, with neither Amitabh nor Jaya reportedly maintaining a cordial relationship with her.
Out of all the Bachchans, Aishwarya appears to be particularly close with Rekha. The two are often seen exchanging warm hugs and kisses.
At the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC) event, Aishwarya posed with Rekha, who had her arms around Aaradhya.
In 2019, Aishwarya and Rekha were seen walking hand in hand after attending Urdu poet Kaifi Azmi’s 100th birth anniversary celebration.
These moments have highlighted their strong bond and have led fans to speculate that Rekha might be a factor in the alleged family feud.
The recent clip of Aishwarya and Rekha from the Ambani wedding function has prompted netizens to speculate that Aishwarya’s closeness with Rekha might have upset Jaya.
On the professional front, Aishwarya was last seen in Mani Ratnam’s magnum opus Ponniyin Selvan 2.
She is reportedly set to reunite with the renowned director in the upcoming film, Thug Life, where she will be paired with Kamal Haasan.
