A Close Bond Between Amitabh and Aishwarya

Amitabh and Aishwarya’s relationship has always been one of mutual respect and care, resembling more of a father-daughter bond than just that of in-laws. Despite the media often portraying tension between Aishwarya and her mother-in-law, Jaya Bachchan, Amitabh and Aishwarya have remained close, even before she married Abhishek Bachchan.

The Accident on the Set of Khakee

In 2003, Aishwarya was filming a scene for the movie Khakee alongside stars like Ajay Devgan, Akshay Kumar, and Amitabh Bachchan. A stunt went horribly wrong when a stuntman driving at high speed lost control, and the car crashed into Aishwarya’s vehicle. The impact caused Aishwarya’s car to swerve and collide with a cactus plant, leaving her injured.

A Narrow Escape and Serious Injuries

Thanks to Akshay Kumar’s quick thinking, Aishwarya was immediately taken to the hospital. Despite her serious injuries, including a broken bone in her leg and multiple cuts caused by the cactus, doctors reported her injuries as minor. Nonetheless, the visual of the accident left Amitabh deeply shaken.

Amitabh’s Emotional Response

In a candid interview, Amitabh revealed the emotional toll the accident took on him. He admitted that the trauma of seeing Aishwarya hurt in front of his eyes left him unable to sleep for two nights. His worry for her well-being further highlighted the deep emotional connection between the two.

The Bachchan Family Dynamic

Following the accident, Aishwarya eventually became a permanent member of the Bachchan family after her marriage to Abhishek. Jaya Bachchan once shared in an interview that Aishwarya had filled the void in their home that was created after their daughter Shweta’s marriage. However, more recent rumors suggest that there might be tension between Aishwarya and her in-laws, though these reports remain speculative.

This incident is a reminder of the strong bond shared between Aishwarya and Amitabh, which transcends the typical in-law relationship and showcases their deep emotional connection.
