Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhisek Bachchan’s darling daughter Aaradhya Bachchan turned 13 earlier this month. Wishing her a happy birthday, her star mother recently shared a sweet glimpse into the teenager’s special day on social media. But what left netizens scratching their heads was why Aaradhya’s father Junior Bachchan didn’t share a birthday post for her like he does every year. Many trolled him for being ‘absent’ from her birthday party photo shared on Aishwarya’s Instagram handle, while others speculated that the divorce rumours were true. However, Abhishek rubbished these reports when he called himself a ‘girl dad’ recently on Amitabh Bachchan’s game show.
This week, Abhishek joined Big B on an episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 along with his director Shoojit Sircar to promote their recently released film I Want To Talk. When Big B asked what convinced him to say yes to the film, Abhishek revealed that in the movie, his character promises his daughter to ignore all his problems and live just for her. The actor explained, “Shweta (Bachchan) is your daughter. I am father to Aaradhya. Shoojit Sircar has two beautiful daughters, we are all girl dads, so we understand this emotion completely. This was enough for me to be convinced to do this film.”
