and
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
's love story has long been one of Bollywood's most loved romances. In 2007, they tied the knot in a grand wedding ceremony that caught the eye of the entire nation. A few years later, they welcomed their daughter Aaradhya into the world, bringing even more joy to the Bachchan family.
Abhishek
showers praise on Aishwarya for raising Aaradhya
In a recent chat with Nayandeep Rakshit on his YouTube channel, Abhishek Bachchan opened up about how they are bringing up Aaradhya. He did not shy away from giving all the credit to
Aishwarya Rai
Bachchan for the way their daughter is being raised.
'I have to give the credit of everything entirely to her mother. I have the liberty and I go out to make my movies but Aishwarya does the heavy lifting with Aaradhya. She is amazing. Selfless.
I find it amazing. Just mothers in general, I don't think fathers have the ability to be as giving, maybe we are wired differently, we are more about going out, we have to do something, we have to work, we are goal-oriented. And to be able to say, 'No, this is my baby and this is my top priority for me,' I think it's amazing and it's a gift.
That's why possibly our go-to people are mothers. So for Aaradhya, yes, absolutely, the entire credit goes to Aishwarya.'

Aaradhya stays away from social media and does not have a phone
In a time when most youngsters are busy with Instagram, YouTube and Snapchat,
Aaradhya Bachchan
stands out. Abhishek revealed that their daughter is not on any social media platform and doesn't even own a mobile phone yet.
'She is not on any social media, doesn't have a phone also. I think she is brought up to be a very conscientious girl and I think that's also a testimony to her individually. I don't want to take away from her what she is personally.
She is who she is and she is turning out to be a wonderful little lady. She is the pride and joy of the family. So yeah, we are blessed. And at the end of the day, it's that happiness is coming home to a happy and healthy family.
That is so important,' said Abhishek.
Why Abhishek himself is less active on social media these days
It's not just Aaradhya who is staying away from social media. Even Abhishek Bachchan has become less active on platforms like Twitter and Instagram. In an interview with ETimes, he explained why.
"Partially yes, and also I feel currently, sadly, and I'm the first person who used to say if you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen but I just feel a lot of social media is just about baiting. It's not a place where you can have a healthy discussion. When it first started you could have a healthy debate or discourse with somebody. Now it's not that. I use it more professionally now."
What's next for Abhishek Bachchan?
Abhishek was last seen in 'Kaalidhar Laapata' and is currently shooting for 'King'. His father
Amitabh Bachchan
had even confirmed on social media that Abhishek had started work on this new film. 'King' is a much-talked-about project as it stars

‘I have never touched another person's phone': Katrina Kaif on maintaining personal space in close friendships and relationships

Navigating the digital world can sometimes feel like navigating a minefield, and celebrities are no exception. Social media etiquette is the need of the hour — whether it's refraining from triple texting, not scrolling through someone else's gallery or bombarding them with Instagram reels. Katrina Kaif has been vocal about her mindful phone usage, and in a recent conversation with Arbaaz Khan on his podcast Pinch, the Bharat actor opened up about how she likes to maintain boundaries with close friends and her partner. 'I do not touch other people's phones. Even if I've touched it, it's to use the camera to take a picture of you. I do not scroll, or what do you call it, touch. I just think that personal space needs to be respected. Otherwise, you are going to have trouble,' she said. Gurleen Baruah, occupational psychologist and executive coach at That Culture Thing, told 'Generally, it is not acceptable for one partner to check the other's phone in a relationship, even if they have permission. This issue is nuanced and involves several important factors to consider.' According to her, trust is a cornerstone of any healthy relationship, and checking a partner's phone undermines this trust and the natural leap of faith that partners take with each other. Privacy is essential, and invading these boundaries can cause lasting damage to the relationship. 'Checking a partner's phone can create a cycle of doubt and suspicion rather than alleviating it. This behaviour often escalates, leading to increasingly invasive actions and higher levels of anxiety,' she said, adding that the habit of checking a partner's phone can become an obsession, particularly if driven by conditions such as Relationship OCD (ROCD). This leads to a cycle of obsession, distress, and compulsion, significantly affecting both mental health and the relationship. Baruah believes open communication and clear boundaries are vital. 'Instead of snooping, partners should discuss their feelings of insecurity and work through them together. This approach fosters a stronger and more trusting relationship,' she added. Navigating issues of privacy and transparency is crucial for maintaining a healthy balance in a relationship. Barua shared some strategies couples can use: Open Communication and Clear Boundaries: Establish open and honest communication to discuss expectations and boundaries regarding privacy and transparency. Agree on what information should be shared and what can remain private, ensuring both partners feel heard and understood. Build and Maintain Trust: Work on building and maintaining trust through consistent, honest behaviour. Trust grows when partners feel secure and confident in each other's actions and intentions. Address any concerns openly to prevent misunderstandings. Respect Individual Space: Allow each other to have private moments and personal space without feeling the need to check up on one another constantly. Respecting individual space is essential for personal well-being and the health of the relationship. Be Transparent About Feelings: Share your feelings and concerns with your partner. If you're feeling insecure or anxious about something, talk about it instead of resorting to invasive actions like checking their phone. Transparency about emotions helps in understanding and addressing the root causes of insecurity.

Khushi Mukherjee Says ‘I Feel Lonely', Blames Social Media Trolls For ‘Depression'

Last Updated: Khushi Mukherjee opened up about feeling lonely and depressed due to social media trolling over her bold looks, saying she's judged no matter what she does. Khushi Mukherjee recently became a social media sensation with several sightings and bold outfit choices. While the social media content garners massive views, she often finds herself at the receiving end, as her choices don't sit well with many. Today, she reacted to the massive trolling and how it is causing her depression. Taking to her Instagram story on Saturday, Khushi wrote, 'Feeling depressed by all the social media trolls. I know many of you might still say that if I am depressed, why am I uploading it on Instagram… must be surely for drama. Many might say that why am I explaining to people. But whatever I do, I am being judged… why????" 'I don't have any friends. I feel lonely, and that's the reason I am uploading it here, because I am kinda breaking from within," she further added. While Khushi often faced backlash for her outfits, she was massively trolled when she wore a golden halter-neck outfit that featured a backless cut, a plunging neckline, and a thigh-high slit. While her paparazzi photos instantly went viral, they also ignited a new wave of criticism on social media. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bollywood Street Snap (@bollywoodstreetsnap) However, Khushi responded with unflinching candour in an interview with Viral Bollywood. Dismissing concerns that she looked uncomfortable in her outfit, Khushi said, 'Hawa chal rahi thi — kya main poora udaake show karti? Main usko sambhal rahi thi, main uncomfortable feel nahi kar rahi thi. Phir bhi mera 'oops moment' click ho jata hai." She went on to say that she's always conscious of what parts of her body she is showing and maintains control of her image. But it was her emotionally charged statement that perhaps struck the loudest chord: 'Logon ke andar itna poison bhar gaya hai… kya chahte hain? Main suicide kar loon? Main nahi karungi. Shayad log meri wajah se kar lein, par main nahi karungi. Main yeh sab isliye karti hoon, kyunki mujhe farak hi nahi padta." Meanwhile, her appearances have triggered reactions beyond just trolls. Sasural Simar Ka actress Falaq Naaz indirectly criticised Khushi in a recent video, questioning why the government remains silent on such bold public appearances when it penalises acts like feeding stray animals. Without naming Khushi directly, she asked, 'Aise logon pe penalty kyun nahi hai?" — drawing a controversial comparison that only fuelled the already heated conversation online.
