Aishwarya Rai’s appearance with PM Modi sparks new buzz about her equation with the Bachchan family
Aishwarya Rai
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan shared the stage with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a major event in Puttaparthi, triggering fresh discussions about her relationship with the Bachchan household.
Mumbai, Maharashtra | Nov 19, 2025:- Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has once again become the centre of public attention, not for a film release but for an appearance that has stirred new conversations about her personal life and her ties with the Bachchan family. The actress was seen sharing the stage with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a prominent event held in Puttaparthi, Andhra Pradesh, and the moment quickly became a talking point across entertainment circles and social media.
Her presence alongside political and public personalities came as a surprise to many, including those who closely follow the Bachchan family’s public movements. Reports have framed the appearance as an unexpected jolt for Jaya Bachchan, though no statement from the family has been issued. Much of the conversation appears to be driven by public fascination with the Bachchans and the long-running speculation around Aishwarya’s relationship with her in-laws.
According to event coverage, Aishwarya spoke warmly about her faith and the guidance she has drawn from Sai Baba over the years. She highlighted how spiritual teachings have shaped several important decisions in her life, including those related to family. The actress appeared composed and confident on stage, interacting comfortably with dignitaries present at the event.
The moment reignited interest in the family equation, especially because it follows months of rumours suggesting distance between Aishwarya and her in-laws. Earlier this year, advertising veteran Prahlad Kakkar had publicly dismissed speculation that Aishwarya had moved out of the Bachchan home, clarifying that frequent visits to her mother’s residence were linked to her daughter Aaradhya’s schooling schedule and not a sign of separation. Despite his comments, stories around tension have continued to circulate.
The Puttaparthi appearance has therefore been interpreted by some as a message of independence, and by others as a simple spiritual gesture unrelated to family matters. Yet, the media and audience have linked the two, fuelling the narrative that the actress may be asserting her own space in the public eye. For Aishwarya, a figure who has long balanced global stardom, motherhood and family expectations, such interpretations are not new.
Observers also noted that her attendance at the event, which included high-ranking personalities and public figures, signals her comfort in participating in spaces beyond cinema—whether spiritual, cultural or civic. The combination of names on the stage made the moment more striking and contributed to the swirl of speculation.
The Bachchan family has maintained silence throughout these developments. Neither Jaya Bachchan nor Abhishek Bachchan has commented, consistent with the family’s preference for privacy when it comes to personal matters. While the media narrative frames the episode dramatically, the lack of official responses leaves much of the interpretation to public imagination.
For now, the incident adds another layer to the ongoing interest in the dynamics within one of Bollywood’s most recognisable families. Whether this appearance marks a shift, a coincidence or simply a personal choice by the actress remains unclear. What is certain is that Aishwarya continues to command attention both inside and outside the entertainment world, and any public move she makes becomes part of a larger conversation.
