For months, the internet has been buzzing with breakup rumours surrounding Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. But according to Abhishek, the person most often dragged into these speculations — their 14-year-old daughter Aaradhya — remains blissfully unaware of the noise outside their home.
In a candid conversation with PeepingMoon, the actor explained that Aaradhya is shielded from the digital frenzy not by chance, but by choice.
“She doesn’t have a phone. That was our decision.”
Asked whether Aaradhya had come across any of the rumours circulating about her parents, Abhishek firmly clarified:
“I hope not. She doesn’t have a phone; she’s 14. If her friends want to reach her, they call on her mother’s phone. That’s something we decided long ago.”
He also praised Aishwarya for raising their daughter with maturity and balance, calling Aaradhya a “wonderful girl who loves school and has her priorities sorted.”
Aaradhya Has Internet Access — But No Interest in Gossip
While she isn’t completely offline, Abhishek added that Aaradhya simply isn’t the type to Google her parents or obsess over online chatter.
“She’s more focused on homework. Her mother has taught her well — to never believe everything she reads.”
The actor said his family operates with complete honesty, leaving no room for doubt or speculation within their home.
Abhishek Calls Divorce Rumours “Rubbish and Vicious”
The ongoing whispers about the couple’s marriage have only grown louder in the past year — especially after Abhishek and Aishwarya arrived separately for major public events, including Anant Ambani’s wedding.
Abhishek dismissed the gossip sharply:
“It’s rubbish, vicious, and incorrect.”
Even Aishwarya had to clarify recently at the Red Sea Film Festival that Aaradhya is not on social media, despite several fake profiles claiming to be her.
A Love Story Spanning Nearly Two Decades
Aishwarya and Abhishek’s relationship began on the sets of Umrao Jaan and Guru. They married in 2007 in an intimate ceremony attended by close family and industry friends. Aaradhya was born in 2011, and the trio has since been one of Bollywood’s most recognised star families.
What They’re Doing Now
- Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was last seen in Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan franchise, where her role as Nandini won praise for its elegance and intensity.
- Abhishek Bachchan recently appeared in Be Happy, Housefull 5 and Kaalidhar Laapata. He is now gearing up for his next project, King.
Final Words
As social media continues to churn out its weekly drama, Abhishek’s comments offer a rare look into how the Bachchans handle speculation — quietly, firmly, and with family at the centre. And for now, their daughter remains blissfully distant from the noise, exactly as her parents intended.
