The Bachchan's cold shoulder towards Aishwarya Rai - Page 26

The Bachchans are very good at removing videos. The is this video I saw years ago of Jaya slapping Aish mom hand away at red carpet, then Aish went besides her mom embarrassed for her mom. I saw this video in Pinkvilla and I can't find it all now.

This is the video, it's from 2014. All the videos from that event are still available.

The scene you're looking for is 0:12 - 0:30

Rajnikanth invited Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan to launch the trailer of his movie 'Kochadaiiyaan'. Aishwarya tagged along and even brought her mother.

Amitabh called Jaya to stand next to him on stage but Aishwarya quickly stood next to Amitabh and her mother stood next to Aishwarya. Both mother-daughter continued to stand next to Amitabh. Amitabh was visibly uncomfortable but Aishwarya and her mother refused to let Amitabh's wife Jaya stand next to him.

Then Aishwarya's mother quickly held Jaya's hand because cameras were rolling. Jaya was upset and gently pushed Aishwarya's mother's hand away.

But Ash was far from being embarrassed. She continued to latch onto Amitabh on the red carpet, whispering into his ears while her mother smiled and Jaya felt humiliated.

But yeah, we get it. Aishwarya is a victim in every situation. Her behavior is never the problem, the fault lies always with others.

I always said Bachchans are a patriarchal and regressive family and ever since Abhishek's chances as lead hero fizzled, they began to sideline Ash more. They are insecure of Ash, her career and global fame.

Jaya had made big deal of Ash's intimate scenes in D2, ADHM, JA. She had also said she is quiet, she listens, shs stands behind. Amitabh had called her domesticated even before marriage.

It was clear where it wad headed.

They are pressuring her, cold shouldering her, keeping her away from family podcasts, KBC appearances and never post about her work or films either.

They are slowly crushing her and making it clear they do not like her to work.

She is dimming her own shine to avoid hurting ego of Abhishek whose even web series failed.

And I bet older Bachchans also dislike Ash for not giving them a male heir.

Abhishek seems to have stopped posting about Ash or her achievements after he was trolled and called nikamma, living off fame of wife on Twitter by a troll.

It is a typical Abhimaan type situation.

A diplomat had said Aishwarya serves guests personally at Bachchan house and not maids or staff. It is clear what Bachchans make her do and demand from her. She was also removed from Kalyan ad and Bachchans brought Jaya and Shweta instead.

Ash is doing no ad now except Loreal. Bachchans hardly make appearances with her.

They want her to be at home.

All mag covers, talk shows and ads are with Shweta or Navya now. Or the old couple themselves.

People really think a woman as dominant and clever as Aishwarya who treats Amitabh, Abhishek and Jaya like shit in public is an oppressed daughter-in-law!

Do you really think Bachchans make her do household chores like a maid lol. Aishwarya has always been busy with her own career flying around the world with her parents, daughter, and daughter's nanny. She did not give up her career for anyone. She does not stay at home. She's always busy promoting herself. I doubt she ever cooked for her husband or in-laws.

Aishwarya was removed from Kalyan ad by Sonam who took revenge because Aishwarya tried her best to stop Sonam from having Loreal contract. Sushmita was the Kalyan brand ambassador before Aishwarya but Aishwarya (who is mad at Sushmita since 1994) made Amitabh remove Sushmita as the brand ambassador and give her the contract. So Aishwarya got what she deserved. Sonam was replaced by Katrina. Shweta just did one ad with her dad three years ago.

What's wrong with Bachchans doing everything with their daughter and her kids. After all, Aishwarya does everything with her parents and her daughter.

And Aishwarya is dimming her own shine by walking on red carpets, attending events everywhere, working in movies, traveling all over the world for her brand endorsements, doing ads, photoshoots. That's quite a way to dim your sunshine for your husband!

I have always felt Ash married into Bachchan family for safety, security and protection from Khans as well as assured limelight and fame as part of biggest star's family.

Otherwise there was no reason to marry a flop guy like Abhishek or into a regressive family like that.

And Ash probably did not want to stay off limelight or marry an NRI like Madhuri so chose to be Bachchan bahu. She would have it hard to stay relevant if she did not marry Abhishek and had already been boycotted by half of industry due to Khans.

No one boycotted her. She fought with every actress and actor back then and she doesn't get along with anyone even now. She married into Bachchans for the name and fake and made a permanent place in Bollywood otherwise she would have been flop and irrelevant 15 years ago. That woman played her cards well!

I love how Ash fans call Bachchans regressive lol. They weren't regressive when they were promoting their beloved Bahurani everywhere and danced on her tunes for years. As soon as they stopped being manipulated by her and decided to stop being fools in public, they have become regressive and toxic.

This!

Shweta is known to be separated from her husband & mostly lives in Bbay with her parents. Though anyone with eyes, can see, Shweta & Jr are impeccably brought up & loved deeply, you can see how much Sr loves Shweta from just the way he looks at her, and while a brilliant actor, even he can’t fake this much, lol. But it’s always struck me as super regressive how they just got her married off at what? 21-23? She was too young & in Delhi socialite circles, there have always been super strong rumours that her husband is not… Straight. The poor lady was too young to know any better. Am so glad to see she’s living her life now I hope, the way she wants to.

Not everyone is like Aishwarya who got married in late 30s after roaming around with a few boyfriends.

Shweta got married at the age of 23 after completing her Bachelor's degree from Boston University. What's regressive about getting married at 23 after completing education?

Aishwarya's sister-in-law Shrima Rai was 20 when she got married to Aditya Rai who was 35 years old. Quite regressive of Rai family to bring in a daughter-in-law who is 15 years younger than their son.

I don't think it is hunky Dory, but I do t think it is too sweet either .

Ash's Instagram handle is really not top game, Her pics are cute but captions are like a 5 year old.

Ash doesn't put pictures of films or promote anything and I think it is vice versa. She doesn't promote her brothers wife too. She mentioned in an interview that she is very uncomfortable with social media and does not like it

I think initially things were great between all of them. However things change and priorities change. Ash lost her father and she made Aaradhya and her mom her entire world and reduced work. Ab jr might be a lot of things bit you can see him stand by Ash's family and she does the same for him

You can see that Aaradhya shares a great bond with the Bachchans and Nandas though. It is definitely not a K3G but just a respectful relationship and distance like many families.

Ash's achievement and relationships within south and west is more to her than the Bachchans. Bollywood had almost boycotted her before the Bachchans. While the south and the west were always open to her. She did not cash on the hollywood front because she did not want to do bold scenes etc the one thing she did gain was protection from Salman and many hindi producers and directors worked with her or connected back with her because of the Bachchan tag. I think in the beginning she liked it but in the last couple of years you can see that except her mom and daughter she doesn't seem to have a care. Though you can see her more happy with the south actors than the north ones , it also might be the way they treat her irrespective of her personal life, the respect was always there.

She says she refused Hollywood movies because of bold scenes but then came back to India and did extremely bold/soft p.rn scenes in Shabd, Choker Bali, and a low-budget indie movie Mistress of Spices. Oh Aishwarya got caught in her lies again!

Ash continued to work in Bollywood after her breakup with Salman, she even worked with Salman's brother Arbaaz and Salman's best friend Sanjay Dutt.

Her Bollywood boycott self-victimization story and drama about needing protection from Salman is so funny that even her in-laws don't believe it. The way they behave warmly towards Salman and Vivek shows that they know Aishwarya's true colors and her lies.

Abhishek went and hugged Vivek after Vivek shared that funny meme about Ash's personal life with political scenario while Amitabh, Abhishek and Shweta continue to praise Salman. It must bug Aishwarya a lot about how her in-laws go out of her way to meet both her ex's.

Ash knew she would have way more followers than any Bachchan if she joined SM and would trump them in all SM power and popularity lists. So no surprise she made number game comment.

It was evident from day one when marriage was fixed what would be fate of Ash. Given ones who knew what became of Jaya after marriage to AB and how Jaya herself walked out of theatre when she saw Ash' sensuous scenea with Hrithik in Jodha Akbar and Dhoom 2 or how she gushed that Ash is quiet, she listens and stands behind or the way they made her do totke and upay in public and Amitabh called her domesticated and they made Ash touch Abhishek's feet at their wedding, it was clear where it was headed.

Bachchan family is a typical UP based family. I mean conservative North Indian style, old school types. Earlier Jaya used to put pallu on head in pics with family in 80s for media. I am surprised they let Ash work even as much as she managed to work after marriage and did not get her to wear pallu on head. Though in 2007 when Ash attended ground breaking ceremony of a college in her name in UP, she did put pallu on her head. Amusingly that college was also never made.

I would say even Ash working as much as she did after marriage or moving without pallu or huge sindoor and bindi on head and forehead or huge mangalsutra is surprising for a typical Bachchan bahurani.

That's why her Instagram handle finally crossed 10 million followers after 4 years of creating the account while Amitabh has 48 million followers and flop Abhishek has 15 million followers.

It's sad how Bachchans turned her into a typical Bachchan Bahurani who is forced to walk behind her father-in-law, dress conservatively, give up her career, stay home, and give them lots of grandkids.

Aishwarya is always talking about herself, her parents and her daughter. Her Instagram is filled with pictures of her parents and her daughter. She never talks about Bachchans. She's always going on and on about how

Aaradhya and my parents are my world and

I'm raising Aaradhya with my mother

So it's okay when Aishwarya gives her in-laws a cold shoulder but not okay when Bachchan's do the same to her. Makes sense lol.

I have to admit, this thread is so entertaining. I think Abhishek and Bachchans are envious of Salman and Vivek about how they both got saved while Bachchans got stuck with her.

Lol at Ash fans trying to portray her a victim, when she herself got into this entire shit just for a Bachchan surname😆

And dayummm the theories about Bachchan mistreating her for Shweta and blah blah. How are you all so sure? Have you seen them fighting. By that logic even i can say Ash might be the one who is problematic😆 No one really knows what goes in a family , so stop trying to portray one party as victim & others as bad. Tali dono hath sy bjti hai, and I truly feel both parties don’t like each other & are equally cold. It is Abhishek who is stuck between his wife and parents & rightfully so🤡

Your hate for Ash is evident from your posts where I did not even mention Salman.

Ash had to stand next to AB and Rajinikanth in Robot promotional event because she is main lead of Robot along with Rajinikanth.

Otherwise amusing to claim she and her mom stood there to sideline Jaya.

All your posts are about gaslighting or blaming Aishwarya or denying anything happened to her. Whereas it is commonplace how she was removed from Veer Zaara, Chalte chalte, slowly stopped getting work here and hence moved abroad or to regional cinema to stay relevant.

Ash has suffered purely due to her wrong choice of relationship with one person who also physically abused her.

Anyway it is a LIE that Ash never promoted her in laws or husband. She has been there at all events for promotions of Abhishek's Kabaddi league, Bachchanalia book launch, did family concerts with Bachchans and stage shows with them, she is the one who took Bachchans to Cannes and a loser like Abhishek to Oprah and Miss World stage or else nobody would have invited him. She is the one who did several films like Sarkar Raj, Ravana, Umrao Jaan etc with Abhishek when he was flopping and also did ads with him as a combo in Prestige and Lux ads or else Abhishek hardly got ads except Idea one. She accompanied Bachchans to that fake college to be named after her in UP to cover up illegal land deal at Barabanki by Sr Bachchan and till date it is a joke that there is no college made and AB grabbed that land. Yet it is claimed Ash did nothing to support or promote her family.

Rather Ash was blamed for using her influence to make her bhabhi Srima Rai be runner up at a beauty pageant.

Ash made her brother Aditya producer of Dil ka Rishta and starred in that faltu film for him. Despite trying to launch her brother as producer it is she who is accused of not promoting her family?

Ash is not SM savvy. So why should she promote films of Bachchans on Insta? Her Insta is only about family. What is wrong if she is closer to her parents and wants to be more with mom after demise of her dad?

Ash was always there in pics with likes of Shweta, Navya, Agastya earlier with whole family in tow.

Even her newborn baby was held by Amitabh and not her or her husband when they got out of hospital. Yet she is accused of ignoring in laws?

Anyway if her in laws do not promote her nor invite her to their shows or podcasts then it is equally fine if she also talks less about them.

I have heard diplomats also speak of how Ash personally serves guests who visit Bachchan household and they do not serve guests through maid or staff. So much for painting her as evil DIL when she serves guests at house too.

Ash willingly made joke of herself doing totke Bachchans wanted her to. Quietly tolerated words like domesticated or quiet, listens, stands behind for her, tolerated her FIL talking about her delivery on Twitter, yet she is some evil DIL being tolerated by Bachchans who benefitted from having a globally famous name as her as their DIL and whose flop son got to appear in global shows and stage due to her. Ash quietly tolerated it when Bachchans threw fits about her scenes in JA, D2, ADHM and when her SIL Srima tried to misuse her name to get brand deals without her knowing that she was using her name. But yes she is bad?

The joke writes itself.

It is also telling of misogyny when people use words like taali dono haath ae bajti hai to gaslight and blame Ash. Or defend Bachchans whose misogyny was known ages ago even when Ash did not marry into that family.

Watch this video of a Pakistani diplomat himself saying Ash personally serves and attends to guests when he visited Amitabh's home and said it was not staff or maid who served him.

Do not tell me when it is high profile guests themselves who talk of how Ash serves guests.

Amused how you think Sonam got Ash removed from Kalyan ad when Amitabh and Jaya, Shweta are still in it. Does Sonam have that power? Lulz.
