Like always, netizens were ready with their conspiracy theories, soon after the picture was posted by Aishwarya. A reddit use said that this was Aishwarya “using uno reverse card to Paris fiasco”.
Jaya Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan had attended the Paris Fashion Week, where Navya Naveli and Aishwarya had walked the ramp. According to a few netizens, Jaya Bachchan and Shweta cheered Navya but didn’t congratulate Aishwarya.
A section of Reddit users also denied this conspiracy theory and brought out old posts by Aishwarya wishing the megastar. All the old pictures, featured Amitabh and Aaradhya, thus making netizens point out that this year was no different and cropping was not due to any malicious intention.
Abhishek Bachchan also extended his heartfelt wishes to his father Amitabh Bachchan on the superstar's 81st birthday. He shared a picture of himself with his "idol" and wrote, "My idol, my hero, my inspiration and my best friend!
Happy 81st birthday, Pa.
Love you and always got your back."
