On April 20, 2019, Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan had completed 12 years as husband and wife, and as the clock had struck 12 on the befall of their anniversary night, junior B had taken to Instagram and had posted a picture of his ‘most beautiful woman in the world’, Aishwarya. With a pink light falling on her, hair tied in a top bun, wearing a blue maxi dress with complementing neckpiece and the moon and sea in the far horizon, the picture of Aishwarya that Abhishek had shared was a treat to the eyes! The caption could be read as “Honey and the moon. @niyamamaldives #niyamamaldives #edge.” But the cutest thing was their daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan had turned paparazzi for her star parents! Aishwarya had taken to Instagram and posting a picture of the both of them sitting together, wrote, “Our Togetherness captured by The Divine Light of Our Lives LOVE YOU AARADHYA.”
In a rather interesting revelation on Famously Filmfare, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan had spoken about having arguments with hubby, Abhishek Bachchan. She had shared, “It has been 12 years and how many years before that we’ve known each other as friends. We’ve known each other for quite a long time. We’ve always conversed a lot and communicated a lot, in all its shades, in all the colours of the rainbow.” The doting wifey had also shared, “It feels like yesterday and what’s funny is that everyone else thinks so too. It’s going to be 12 years in April and it’s flown by, which is a great sign. I am clueless about the time that’s flown by.”
Recalling their roka moment, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan had shared in an interview, “He proposed, which was amazing! And it happened like really suddenly, she said. I didn’t even know there’s something called a roka’ ceremony. We are South Indians, so, I don’t know what a roka’ is and suddenly there is this call from their house to ours; 'we are coming’'". She had further shared, “Abhishek was like we are all coming and I can’t stop dad. We are on our way. We are coming to your place’. I’m like, Oh my God!’ So, this roka’ is happening with a call to my father, who is out of town." But, she said, 'Mum is here, we are here. They’ve all arrived home, they are emotional and all. I’m like, Oh my God, it’s happening.' Then it’s like, come on, let’s go home’. I’m like, Mom, okay... is this...is this an engagement? Like, what just happened?’" (Also Read: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan And Aaradhya Bachchan's Mother-Daughter Moments Are Nothing But Pure Love)
