Their marriage, which has spanned over 17 years, has weathered many ups and downs, including the relentless scrutiny of the public and media. They are parents to their daughter Aaradhya, who was born in November 2011.

Abhishek and Aishwarya have also shared the screen in several successful films, including Guru, Dhaai Akshar Prem Ke, Kuch Naa Kaho, Dhoom 2, and Umrao Jaan.
