Over the years, they've built a beautiful life together with their daughter Aaradhya. Let's take a throwback look at when the actor recalled a humorous incident with
Bachchan.
In a candid chat on The Ranveer Show in 2021, Abhishek shared a humorous anecdote about his first-ever meeting with Aishwarya, revealing that she couldn't understand a word he said at the time.
The First Meeting on a Film Set
Abhishek fondly recalled meeting Aishwarya for the first time during the shoot of her debut Hindi film 'Aur Pyaar Ho Gaya', where she starred alongside his friend
.
'My dear friend Bobby Deol was shooting his first film. I was at the same location and went to say hi to him. He invited me for dinner, and that's when I first interacted with Aishwarya,' Abhishek said. It was a casual encounter, but it turned out to be a memorable one, for both.
'I Must've Had Some Really Heavy Accent'
Reflecting on that moment, Abhishek admitted that Aishwarya had difficulty understanding him. 'Whenever she talks about it, she jokingly says, 'I couldn't understand a word of what you were saying.' I must've had some really heavy accent at that point,' he added, referring to his background in international schooling and time spent in Boston. His early education and acting training were entirely in English, which, he believes, may have made his speech unfamiliar at the time.
Work Front
On the work front, Abhishek Bachchan has made his grand comeback with the comedy entertainer movie 'Housefull 5' which is doing well at the box office.

Saif Ali Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan meet Karisma Kapoor after death of former husband Sunjay Kapur
Sunjay J Kapur, Chairman of Sona Comstar and the former husband of Bollywood actor Karisma Kapoor, died of a heart attack in the UK on June 12. He was 53. Sunjay, an industrialist, and Karisma, a leading Hindi film actress of the time, were married in 2003. The couple became parents to daughter Samaira in 2005 and son Kiaan in 2011. The couple had a troubled marriage. In 2014, Karisma and Sunjay filed for divorce through mutual consent but later withdrew it over disagreements over financial settlements and the custody of their children. An acrimonious legal battle ensued. In her divorce plea, Karisma accused Sunjay of domestic abuse. Their divorce was finalised in 2016. The same year, Karisma Kapoor filed a domestic violence case against Sunjay and his mother, as well as a dowry harassment case. After the separation, Sunjay married Priya Sachdev. Karishma Kapoor's sister Kareena Kapoor Khan, her husband Saif Ali Khan, and close friend Malaika Arora arrived at her residence late on Thursday night to provide emotional support. Sunjay Kapur was the chairman and non-executive director of automotive tech company Sona Comstar. In a statement, the company said, 'It is with profound sorrow that we announce the untimely passing of Mr. Sunjay J. Kapur, Chairman and Non-Executive Director of Sona Comstar, following a sudden heart attack in England, UK, on 12th June 2025, at the age of 53.'
