A recently resurfaced video featuring Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has stirred up a storm online, raising eyebrows over her interaction with niece Navya Nanda while accompanying daughter Aaradhya Bachchan. The clip depicts Aishwarya striding ahead, seemingly oblivious to Navya's presence trailing behind. This apparent oversight has sparked speculation among netizens, prompting questions about any underlying tensions between them. Some assert that Aishwarya's purported indifference towards Navya might hint at strained relations within the Bachchan family, particularly with Shweta Bachchan.
However, defenders of Aishwarya have rushed to clarify that the snippet may not present the full picture and that there's no deliberate snub involved. Nevertheless, rumours persist about a rumoured discord between Aishwarya and Shweta, with their distant behaviour at recent family gatherings fueling speculation further. Netizens expressed shock reacting to this incident. A user wrote, Ash completely forgot that even Navya is with them." Another one commented, "That's bad, how can they forget Navya is with them."
In a recent interview, Navya addressed her relationship with cousin Aaradhya, highlighting the latter's intelligence and awareness beyond her years. Navya's assertion that Aaradhya doesn't require her guidance reflects the mutual admiration and respect between the cousins, despite any familial dynamics at play.
Moreover, Navya's immensely popular podcast featuring her mother Shweta and grandmother Jaya Bachchan has garnered significant attention. While fans clamoured for Aishwarya's appearance on the show, her preference for guests beyond the Bachchan clan was misconstrued by some, leading to assumptions of her purported snubbing of Navya's invitation.
