Bachchan parivaar is supporting their beti but not bahu Aishwarya?

7 Nov, 2016
Bachchan parivaar is supporting their beti but not bahu Aishwarya?Bachchan parivaar is supporting their beti but not bahu Aishwarya?

Even after coming out as a 'close-knit family,' it seems that the Bachchan parivaar is more happy supporting their daughter than their daughter-in-law

Over the weekend the Internet was filled with two very prominent stories about the Bachchan parivaar. One was about Shweta Bachchan Nanda walking the ramp for the family couturiers, Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla.

Donning an ethereal white maxi dress with feathered cape and fascinator, the Bachchan beti looked breathtaking and was cheered on by none other her family including father Amitabh Bachchan, mother Jaya Bachchan and brother Abhishek Bachchan.

Beti makes them proud

In fact, the Bachchan patriarch also shared an album of her pictures on his Facebook page posting with them a message that he was indeed "a very very proud father."

But the other news about the Bachchan parivaar, did not portray them in such a positive light. The news was about their bahu, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

Bahu's work not worth being proud of?

She reportedly organised a private screening of her latest film, in which she was praised by critics and fans alike, but did not see a single in-law in attendance. Even after posing as a happily family at their annual Diwali bash, it seems that the Bachchan's are upset with their bahurani.

It was reported that the film's director Karan Johar specially asked the senior Bachchans to attend a private screening he arranged for them, but they skipped it. They also did not attend another special screening that was organised inside the Bachchan home in Mumbai.

I haven't seen the film yet: Abhishek Bachchan

While the Internet was quick to judge the Bachchans, calling their behaviour 'hypocritical,' Abhishek Bachchan explained his side of the story.

"Unfortunately, I haven't seen the film yet because I have been travelling with my football team. I will be seeing it in the coming week. I have seen the scratches of the movie and kept seeing when it was under production. I think she (Aishwarya) is looking stunning," he told the media at the event where he was spotted cheering for his elder sister.

The 40-year-old actor also added, "I am very happy for Karan Johar and the entire team. I wish them all the very best."

Even though this statement came only after reports of the Bachchan parivaar boycotting their bahu's recent work started doing the rounds, it only goes on to show that the family is not too thrilled about their bahu's 'bold' professional work.

This hasn't stopped Aishwarya

But that hasn't stopped her from going ahead with her professional work. She was recently spotted in another bold avatar on the cover of a fashion magazine and she rocked every frame!

However, that brings us to why daughters-in-law in India must learn to be more independent and make their career decisions irrespective of what their in-laws might think. Something we feel Aishwarya Rai Bachchan may also be doing!

And even if she isn't, here's our take on the things that a daughter-in-law must stop worrying about in the 21st century.

3 reasons you shouldn't worry about what your in-laws think

  • Supportive partner: If you have a partner who supports and encourages you, chances are he will hear out your problems, even if they pertain to his own family. Both of you can decide on how to take things forward and what you can both do in your capacity to make things work with your in-laws.
  • Strong education: Your parents have invested time, effort and money to educate you so can stand on your feet. And it is this education that will help you stand on your own feet without anybody's help. Being financially independent can help give you the power to make your own life decisions. And in turn you can also help your own parents and in-laws in their time of need.
  • Willingness to prove oneself: While having a supportive husband and being educated do come in handy, it is eventually your own willingness to prove yourself that will help you move forward. A positive attitude to achieve the greatest heights in your profession will keep you going, irrespective of the noise in the house! So keep moving forward.
