Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan's roka ceremony came as a surprise, especially because Aishwarya's father, Krishnaraj Rai as he wasn't available there. Published: October 28, 2024 11:58 AM IST By Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan have always been one of Bollywood’s most adored couples. However, recent reports have left fans speculating about possible tensions between them.
Aishwarya’s absence from Amitabh Bachchan’s birthday video, her solo appearances at events, and rumours linking Abhishek with Nimrat Kaur are fueling divorce reports. Amid the buzz, an old interview of Aishwarya Rai has resurfaced, where she shares the story of how she and Abhishek came to be married. Aishwarya and Abhishek tied the knot on April 20, 2007, which grabbed the most attention of the media.
However, very few people know the story behind the couple’s ‘Roka’ ceremony. In a throwback interview, Aishwarya revealed how her Roka ceremony happened without her father. She said, “I didn’t even know that there is something called ‘Roka’.
We are South Indians, so I don’t know what Roka is and suddenly we got a call from their house – we are coming.” In an episode of Aishwarya Rai shared the story of how her and Abhishek Bachchan’s roka ceremony came about unexpectedly right after his proposal in the absence of his father. She further said, “Abhishek said- we are all coming and I cannot stop father.
We are on the way. We are coming to your house. I thought oh my god, what.
