Mumbai: Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s separation rumour have been doing the rounds for quite some time now.
While Abhishek and Aishwarya have maintained a dignified silence on the matter, their recent activities and posts on social media suggest that their marriage has hit rock bottom.
After avoiding wishing wife Aishwarya on her birthday on November 1, Abhishek now had no special birthday post for daughter Aaradhya who turned 13 on November 16.
Meanwhile, Aishwarya shared some pictures from Aaradhya’s birthday celebrations on her Instagram handle last night.
In the photo dump, the mother and daughter duo were seen paying tribute to the actress’ late father Krishnaraj Rai, whose birth anniversary is observed on November 21.
Following this was a selfie of Aishwarya with her mother Vrinda and Aaradhya. There was a picture of a balloon on which was written ‘You’re officially a teenager Aaradhya’.
The last picture was of birthday girl Aaradhya, dressed in a shiny silver outfit, posing with her mother Aishwarya.

While a section of netizens wished the birthday girl Aaradhya, the others slammed Abhishek Bachchan for not wishing his daughter on her birthday. Some even hinted at the celebrity couple’s divorce rumours to be true.
One user wrote, “abhishek has posted something about his upcoming movie 4hrs ago but nothing for his only daughter. Husband wife beef i can understand, but your child? Idk man I want to believe the “he’s on a sm detox” thingy, but it feels weird. Anyways, as someone who has seen her mom stuggling to deal w shitty inlaws and having a crappy dad’s side of the family, i have so much sympathy for Aradhya and Aish. All my love. Aradhya does seem to be a good kid.”
Another angry netizen commented, “On the other hand, Abhishek hasnt posted even a story to wish her, while he does every now and then for others! What a shame…..,”
A third wrote, “Hate when the kids suffer coz of parents beef, all the more upset coz of Abhishek’s minimal / zero presence for his child most of the time.”
“No AB family or junior AB in pics !!! Divorce news seems true now !!!” posted another.
But the actress’ heavy diamond ring, which is also her wedding ring, had a fan quip: “Are Aish and Abhishek together?” while another commented, “Look at that diamond ring!”
