Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan's wedding was quite grand, but a private affair. The wedding took place in the year 2007 and it was widely discussed and covered back then. After all, the actress cited as the'most beautiful woman' was finally tying the knot. For many, Ash and Abhi's story is like a fairytale romance. But did you know, back then, Ash being a 'manglik' was also a big topic of discussion?
When news came out that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is allegedly a manglik, some started spreading rumours that she would be unlucky for the Bachchan family. Some reports also stated that she also married a tree so that nothing happens to Abhishek Bachchan and his family. But what did the Bachchans think back then? Well, Big B was once asked about the same.
As reported by News 18, when Amitabh Bachchan was asked about it in the past, the megastar was quite miffed with the rumours. The Sholay star said that these claims are insensitive that she is a maglik and got married to a tree. Every day there is some prediction about what she is and what her future will be; yeh jis ghar mein jayegi uska father-in-law mar jayega (her father-in-law will die). Aishwarya is not unlucky for us! Whatever is fated will happen," said Mr. Bachchan.
Further, he said that the media wrote what they wanted to, but have they thought about how Aishwarya Rai's family must be feeling to read these stories? He was also upset that the speculations have not stopped at all. He questioned, "Have they any idea what she and Abhishek are really going through? What's marriage but the belief between two people?" Amitabh said that marriage is neither scientific nor ritualistic. It is about two minds connecting where two people are there for each other for life.
Meanwhile, for quite some time, there have been rumours that Aishwarya and Abhishek's married life has hit an alleged tough spot. However, the couple has been silent despite the continuous rumours.
