Abhishek Bachchan has opened up about his nearly two-decade-long marriage to Aishwarya Rai. The couple has acted in several movies and has a daughter named Aaradhya.
In a new conversation with Lilly Singh, Abhishek shared that there was no competition about their careers from the very beginning of their bond.
Abhishek reflected on his career and marriage, saying, “When my parents got married, my mother was the much bigger star than my father was. So it was not an unnatural thing. I wasn’t brought up to think that you have to be the dominant one; it was always about partnership.”
He continued, “When we did finally come together through our courtship, engagement and then our marriage, it was always about a partnership. There has never been a discussion like, ‘I am going to bring the food and you take care of the house.’ It’s not even discussed; it flows very naturally. But that comes from severe ego, for me.”
Abhishek and Aishwarya first met in the early 2000s and went on to collaborate on films such as Dhoom 2 and Guru. They got married in April 2007 and welcomed their daughter, Aaradhya, in 2011.
