Amid swirling divorce rumors concerning the renowned actor couple, Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai, Aishwarya took to social media to wish her husband a happy birthday. On Wednesday, February 5, she shared a heartfelt tribute on her Instagram, celebrating Abhishek’s 49th birthday with a rare childhood photograph.
The nostalgic image featured a young Abhishek riding a tricycle, looking happily at the camera. Accompanying the post, Aishwarya wrote, “✨Here’s wishing you Happy Birthday with happiness, good health, love and light. God Bless🧿🌼🌈✨.” This affectionate message comes amidst various speculations regarding their relationship status.
Fans quickly took to the comments section to voice their support for the couple, dismissing the rumors of impending divorce. One fan praised Aishwarya, stating, “Aren’t you the most gracious and merciful queen 🫂♥️ we love you Aishwarya 🥰.” Another remarked, “lo ab kahan gye divorce kehne wale (Where are those people who were talking about divorce?).” Such comments reflected the admiration and loyalty many hold for the couple.
The couple’s harmonious relationship has recently faced scrutiny, particularly following speculation about a feud between Aishwarya Rai and the Bachchan family. This speculation ignited during Anant Ambani’s wedding in July 2024 when Aishwarya and her daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan, arrived separately from the rest of the family. The rest of the Bachchan clan, including the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, his wife Jaya Bachchan, and their children, appeared together, further fueling the rumors.
These disheartening rumors gained traction after family members did not publicly acknowledge Aishwarya on her birthday earlier this month. However, Aishwarya and Abhishek, who celebrated their marriage in 2007, remain devoted parents to their daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan, born on November 16, 2011.
Abhishek was recently featured in Shoojit Sircar’s film, “I Want to Talk,” bolstering his visibility in the industry and maintaining his status as a prominent figure in Bollywood. The strong public support following Aishwarya’s birthday wish illustrates the couple’s ability to withstand external pressures and rumors. Fans continue to rally behind them, emphasizing their unity and love amid challenging times.
Aishwarya’s heartwarming birthday message for Abhishek serves not only to celebrate his life but also to silence critics who speculate about their marriage. The public’s overwhelmingly positive response showcases the power of affection and support in the face of adversity. As fans express their unwavering faith in the couple’s bond, it’s evident that Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai continue to inspire their admirers, reinforcing the notion that love can triumph over challenges.
