When Sonam Kapoor Called Aishwarya Rai Bachchan "Aunty"
Ah, Bollywood! Where friendships are as unpredictable as the box office collections. We all know how actresses today are all about ‘dosti’ and ‘sisterhood’—well, most of the time. But remember that time when Sonam Kapoor, in her typical bindass style, called Aishwarya Rai Bachchan "aunty"? Oh boy, did that create a storm! 🌪️
For those who need a quick refresher, let’s rewind to 2009. Aishwarya and Sonam’s dad, Anil Kapoor, have shared the screen in multiple hits like Taal and Hamara Dil Aapke Paas Hai. But when Sonam made her Bollywood debut, things were not all hunky-dory.
Here’s the scoop: Both Aishwarya and Sonam were brand ambassadors for a top-notch beauty brand. Our Saawariya starlet was super jazzed about possibly joining the Cannes Film Festival. But then, rumors swirled that Aishwarya refused to share the red carpet with her. Drama alert! 🚨
Now, Aishwarya being the classy diva she is, never addressed these rumors. But when Sonam was asked about it, she casually dropped the bomb, calling Ash "aunty from another generation." The backlash was instant and brutal, with fans up in arms. Aish was 36 and Sonam was 25 at the time, so the generational gap wasn’t exactly a Grand Canyon, but you know how sensitive Bollywood fans can be!
Sonam, always ready with a comeback, later said she was "misquoted" and explained, “Aish has worked with my dad, so I have to call her aunty na!” Ah beta, nice try but the damage was done.
Fast forward to today, and it seems the two have buried the hatchet and are cordial. Sonam has since been involved in multiple controversies, from her spat with Deepika Padukone to her infamous comments on Ranbir Kapoor on Koffee With Karan. Drama, drama, and more drama!
Meanwhile, our beloved Aishwarya is currently in the limelight for her rumored marital issues with Abhishek Bachchan. Word on the street is that there’s some tension in the Bachchan household. Kya yaar, Bollywood never stops giving us juicy gossip!
