When Jaya Bachchan confessed she appreciates Aishwarya Rai’s knack for ‘staying in the background’: ‘She listens and absorbs everything’

Ah, Bollywood! The land where even the most mundane events can set off a media frenzy. And who better to dish out the juicy details than yours truly, Bollywood Newshound Nisha? Buckle up, folks, because this ride is about to get bumpy! 🎢

The ever-so-glamorous Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made quite the entrance at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding at the Jio World Centre in Mumbai on July 12. But oh, the plot thickens! The duo arrived separately, which of course set the tongues wagging faster than you can say "Koffee with Karan." 🕵️‍♀️

Adding fuel to the speculative fire, Abhishek recently liked an Instagram post discussing the challenges of divorce. Yes, you read that right. Cue the collective gasps of horror from all the fans who have shipped "Abhi-Ash" since 2007. Just when you thought Bollywood couldn’t get any more dramatic, right? 🍿

In the midst of all this hullabaloo, an old interview of Jaya Bachchan has resurfaced. Ah, Jaya, the matriarch of the Bachchan clan, who once graced Karan Johar’s infamous couch. During her appearance on Koffee with Karan, she sang praises for her daughter-in-law, Aishwarya, describing her as humble and quiet—qualities as rare in Bollywood as a good sequel. Jaya also admired how Aishwarya seamlessly fit into the Bachchan family dynamics. Talk about setting the bar high for daughter-in-laws everywhere! 🙄

KJo, ever the instigator, hinted that Aishwarya might lighten Jaya’s load. Jaya, ever the optimist, hoped Ash would take on more responsibilities. Enter Shweta Bachchan, who humorously warned her mother not to overburden Aishwarya too soon. Oh, to be a fly on the wall in that household! 🦟

Fast forward to their wedding in 2007—Abhishek and Aishwarya pulled off what can only be described as the heist of the century. They managed to keep the event so exclusive that even the paparazzi had to RSVP. Abhishek later revealed on Koffee with Karan that the low-key affair was due to his ailing grandmother. Both families would’ve preferred a grand celebration, but they chose intimacy over extravagance. How very un-Bollywood of them! 🌸

And let’s not forget their bundle of joy, Aaradhya, who arrived in 2011. The Bachchan family tree continues to flourish, despite all the rumors and Instagram likes that might suggest otherwise.

Nisha’s Nutshell: In Bollywood, marriages may be made in heaven, but they sure are scrutinized on Earth. Whether it’s arriving separately at weddings or liking cryptic Instagram posts, nothing escapes the eagle eyes of fans and the media. So, the moral of the story? If you’re a Bollywood star, even your social media likes are headline news. Better keep those thumbs in check! 👍😜

Stay tuned for more scoops, because in Bollywood, the drama never ends! 🎬✨
