In 2017, a source had told India.com, how Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was inconsolable after her father’s demise and the way she had juggled between hospital and home. The source was quoted as saying:
“Aishwarya has been heartbroken. She’s been spending sleepless nights worrying crazy about her dad’s deteriorating health. Amid all this, it is heartening to see how Abhishek has been keeping her company. Aishwarya has been ignoring herself while taking care of her father. Abhishek has been taking care of her and making sure that she eats and sleeps every few hours. He has made sure to be around. Both of them spend most of their day and night at the hospital, stepping out to go home only to freshen up and to check on daughter Aaradhya, who’s been taken care of her paternal grandparents – Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan.”
On the work front, Aishwarya was last seen in the film, Fanney Khan, alongside Anil Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao.
