Abhishek Bachchan praises Aishwarya Rai in conversation with Nimrat Kaur: 'I consider myself Lucky'

Rumors of divorce between Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai have been circulating for weeks, though the couple has remained silent on the matter. Amid the speculation, fans have been revisiting past interviews where the two spoke about their relationship.

One resurfaced video now gaining attention shows Abhishek praising Aishwarya for her deep understanding of him, with Nimrat Kaur listening attentively. The clip is from the time when Abhishek and Nimrat were promoting their film Dasvi.

During an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Abhishek Bachchan expressed his admiration for Aishwarya Rai, acknowledging her as an incredible source of support in his life.

“My wife is exceptional at that. She’s always been an amazing emotional support for me. I’ve been very lucky, my entire family has been. The wonderful thing about having a life partner like Aishwarya is that she is from the business. She gets it. She has been doing it slightly longer than I have. So, she knows the world. She has been through it all. So, it’s nice when you come home and if you’ve had a challenging day, you know that there’s somebody who gets it,”Abhishek shared his thoughts, with Nimrat Kaur nodding in agreement as he spoke.

“She has been somebody that, I have always noticed, has managed to traverse some of the most difficult times of her life with utmost dignity and grace. I really admire that about her. Actors are emotional people, we’re very, very hyper-sensitive. and there are times when we might just want to lash out and we kind of explode. You can only take so much. I’ve never seen her do that,” he remarked, while Nimrat and the interviewer listened, smiling in agreement.

Abhishek shared that he feels incredibly fortunate to have Aishwarya as his partner, expressing, "I consider myself really, really lucky to have her by my side."

Speculation around Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's marriage intensified when Abhishek liked a social media post referencing divorce. The couple, who have been married for 17 years and share a daughter, Aaradhya, have recently been seen attending events separately. Rumors about their split first emerged earlier this year when Aishwarya attended the Ambani wedding solo, accompanied only by her daughter, rather than with the entire Bachchan family, which further fueled the whispers surrounding their relationship.
