Rumours concerning Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s breakup have circulated online. Despite this, the actress attended the Global Women’s Forum in Dubai on Wednesday, where she gave a lecture about women’s empowerment.
As Aishwarya entered the stage, a big screen behind her said “Aishwarya Rai | International Star,” omitting the “Bachchan” surname. A number of the event’s images and videos have been making the rounds on social media.
In an earlier interview with The Hindu, Abhishek Bachchan thanked Aishwarya for looking after their daughter Aaradhya. He recalled how the actress chose to step away from her acting career when he was born to dedicate herself to raising her children. “My mother stopped acting when I was born because she wanted to spend time with the children. We never felt the void of Dad not being around. I think at the end of the day after work, you come home at night,” he said.
When director Shoojit Sircar highlighted the sacrifices Jaya made for her children, Abhishek drew a parallel to his own life, particularly about his actor-wife Aishwarya. He said, “In my household, I’m lucky I get to go out and make movies but I know that Aishwarya is at home with Aaradhya and I thank her immensely for that but I don’t think the kids look at it that way. They don’t look at you as a third person, they look at you as the first person,” he said.”
Rumours about Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s divorce have been circulating on social media for quite some time now. These rumours gained traction when the couple arrived separately at a high-profile wedding In July. The speculation intensified when Abhishek liked an Instagram post discussing the increase in “grey divorces,” which further fuelled the divorce rumours.
