Amitabh's father's name is Harivansh Rai Bachchan.
Amitabh dropped the Rai and just took Bachchan as his lastname. Abhishek and Shweta were named accordingly. Even Jaya Bhaduri became Jaya Bachchan.
Abhishek married Aishwarya Rai and Ash became Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
Their daughter, the heiress to the family, has been named Aaradhya Rai Bachchan. (She took both her mother and father's surnames)
So in a very weird way the name "Rai Bachchan" crawled back into the family
if Amitabh hadn't dropped 'Rai', aaj Aish 'Aishwarya Rai Rai' hoti. 😆
