The Bachchan family often finds itself in the headlines, not just for their films but also for their personal relationships. Recently, speculations about tension between Aishwarya Rai and her sister-in-law Shweta Bachchan have caught public attention. Many believe that a distant relationship between the two could be a reason behind Aishwarya and Abhishek Bachchan’s marital issues, which have been a topic of media discussions.
Public Distance Between Aishwarya and Shweta
Social media and viral pictures seem to fuel the rumours about a strained relationship between Aishwarya and Shweta. Observers have pointed out that the two rarely interact in public events. Even during family gatherings, like the recent screening of The Archies for Shweta’s son Agastya Nanda, both were seen maintaining a visible distance from each other.
Further adding to the speculation, fans have noticed that Aishwarya and Shweta do not follow each other on Instagram. This may seem trivial, but in today’s digital age, following or unfollowing someone can send a strong message, especially when the rest of the family remains connected on social media platforms.
What’s Behind the Rift?
In an old interview, Shweta Bachchan was once asked if there was anything she disliked about her sister-in-law. She humorously remarked that Aishwarya takes a long time to respond to phone calls and messages. While this may seem like a light comment, it adds fuel to the speculation about an underlying tension between the two.
Shweta’s apparent habit of interrupting her brother, Abhishek, in interviews has also been noticed by fans, who believe this indicates some friction between the siblings regarding Aishwarya. These subtle signs, coupled with the noticeable lack of public affection between the two, continue to stir rumors.
Social Media Signs of Distance
Interestingly, Shweta follows almost every member of the Bachchan family on Instagram, except Aishwarya. Aishwarya, on the other hand, follows only her husband, Abhishek. This absence of mutual social media engagement has not gone unnoticed, leading many to wonder if there is more to their relationship than meets the eye.
Even Shweta’s children, Agastya and Navya Naveli Nanda, seem to keep their distance from Aishwarya in public. However, both follow her on social media, adding another layer of curiosity to this ongoing saga.
Lack of Family Interaction
It’s not just about Instagram. Aishwarya and Shweta are rarely seen together at family events. Many have pointed out that even in the few instances where they do appear in the same space, like at Agastya’s screening, the two maintain a noticeable distance from one another. Additionally, during Navya Naveli’s recent podcast, Aishwarya was notably absent from the guest list, further intensifying the rumors.
Even more surprising is that Aishwarya doesn’t follow her father-in-law, Amitabh Bachchan, on Instagram. Though the two were once connected on the platform, they seem to have unfollowed each other, sparking additional rumours of family tension.
With so much buzz surrounding the relationship between Aishwarya and Shweta, it’s clear that the public’s curiosity isn’t going away anytime soon. As the two continue to avoid each other on social media, questions about their family dynamics will likely persist.
