Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Trolled for Airport Moment with Aaradhya as They Return from Vacation

Bollywood icon Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has once again found herself at the center of online trolling after a viral airport video captured a tense moment between her and daughter Aaradhya Bachchan. The mother-daughter duo, returning from a luxurious vacation, were spotted at the airport, but instead of a warm homecoming, netizens focused on Aishwarya’s behavior, sparking a wave of online criticism.

In the now-viral footage, Aishwarya appears visibly strict with Aaradhya, holding her hand tightly while guiding her through the paparazzi chaos. Some fans believe she was merely being protective, but others felt she was too controlling. The internet quickly reacted, with many trolls targeting the actress for what they called “overbearing” and “obsessive” parenting.

Critics accused Aishwarya of treating Aaradhya like a toddler, despite the fact that the star kid is now 12 years old. “She needs to let Aaradhya walk freely instead of constantly holding her like a little child,” one user commented. Others mocked Aishwarya’s signature protective gestures, with some even calling it “attention-seeking” behavior.

However, not everyone joined in the trolling. Many defended Aishwarya, reminding the public that paparazzi culture in India can be overwhelming, especially for celebrity children. “She’s just being a protective mom, nothing wrong with that,” one fan wrote. Another added, “People will judge no matter what she does—if she ignores Aaradhya, they’ll call her careless; if she holds her hand, they say she’s overprotective.”

The backlash also reignited old debates about Aaradhya’s public appearances and upbringing. The young girl, with her signature long hair and composed demeanor, is often under scrutiny. Some critics claim she has been “over-sheltered” from normal childhood experiences, while supporters argue that the Bachchans have every right to protect their daughter’s privacy.

This is not the first time Aishwarya has been trolled for her parenting style. Over the years, she has been frequently criticized for always accompanying Aaradhya to public events and holding her hand, even at formal functions. Despite this, Aishwarya has remained unfazed, continuing to prioritize her daughter’s comfort over public perception.

Interestingly, Abhishek Bachchan was not spotted at the airport, leading to further speculation and gossip. Some users questioned why Aishwarya always travels alone with Aaradhya, fueling ongoing rumors about tension in the Bachchan household. However, there is no official confirmation regarding any rift.

As the trolling continues, neither Aishwarya nor the Bachchan family has addressed the controversy. The actress, known for her dignified silence in the face of criticism, is likely to ignore the negativity, as she has done many times before.

Despite the online hate, Aishwarya’s bond with Aaradhya remains one of Bollywood’s most talked-about mother-daughter relationships. Whether fans love it or criticize it, one thing is clear—every move they make in public will always be under the media microscope.
