Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan shared a powerful video addressing the issue of standing up against street harassment.
The actress took to her Instagram to share a video about advocating for self-worth. The video is part of L’Oréal Paris’ Stand Up Against Street Harassment Training Program.
In the video, Aishwarya urged everyone not to stay silent in the face of street harassment. While promoting the campaign, she said, "Street harassment, how to deal with it? Avoid eye contact? No. Look the problem directly in the eyes. Hold your head high. Feminine and feminist. My body, my worth. Never compromise your worth. Do not doubt yourself. Stand up for your worth. Don’t blame your dress or your lipstick. Street harassment is never your fault,"
Aishwarya’s new video comes amid ongoing rumors about her marriage. For several months now, she and Abhishek have been the subject of divorce speculations.
The actress recently posted pictures from their daughter Aaradhya’s birthday celebration, which sparked further rumors about trouble in her relationship with Abhishek. The photos notably did not include any members of the Bachchan family, including Abhishek, drawing significant attention.

While Abhishek and Aishwarya have remained silent about the rumors, Amitabh Bachchan shared a post that appeared to address the speculation surrounding their family’s personal matters. He wrote, "I rarely speak about family, as it is my domain and its privacy is upheld by me. Speculations are just that – unverified untruths. Verifications are sought by those looking to authenticate their own business and commercial interests. I don’t challenge their choice of profession, nor do I dismiss their efforts to serve society. However, untruths or selectively posed questions may serve as legal protection for those who share them, but the seed of doubt is planted with this most common symbol... the question mark."
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan's divorce rumors first surfaced in July when Aishwarya attended the wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant Ambani without the family, arriving solo with their daughter Aaradhya.
