Abhishek and Aishwarya’s love story is not less than any fairytale. They had met on the sets of the film, Dhaai Akshar Prem Ke in 2000 and were good friends at that time. However, they became more than just friends during the shooting of Umrao Jaan and Guru. After the premiere of Guru, Abhishek had proposed Aishwarya in New York and she had accepted his proposal. In an interview with the Cosmopolitan, Abhishek had praised his wife and had stated, “She’s very down-to-earth, rooted, simple and real. She’s very beautiful, which everyone knows. But as a person, she is far more beautiful. She’s not what you’d expect her to be. You may think she’s an internationally known star and so beautiful, so she must have an attitude. But Aishwarya connects with you easily.”
On Aishwarya's birthday, i.e., November 1, 2020, her doting husband, Abhishek Bachchan had taken to his IG handle and had posted a picture with her. In the picture, we could see Aishwarya and Abhishek donning ethnic ensembles and smiling cheerfully for the camera. Alongside it, Abhishek had written, "Happy birthday Wifey. Thank you for everything! All that you do for us and mean to us. May you always smile and be happy. We love you eternally. I love you."
In an interview with film critic, Anupama Chopra, Abhishek Bachchan had opened up about marrying the most beautiful woman on earth and had quoted, “It's not about - you're hot and let's get married. It's not that. I married her for the human being that she is, not because she is the most successful actor we have or she is the international face of the Indian cinema. At the end of the day, when you come back home from a hard day at work, you go to bed and you have to face certain realities about how the person is like. These faces that we have come off at night without makeup. I married her for that person." (Also Read: Amitabh Bachchan's Unseen Picture With Abhishek Bachchan Proves That He Is The Best Daddy)
