Being in the same Industry Aishwarya Knew Abhishek already. We don’t know when the two came closer and when the affair started. They first appeared together in the song ‘Kajra ra’ for the movie Bunty aur Babli, Aishwarya had an special appearance in this song. Ash, Abhishek and Amitabh beautifully choreographed by Saroj Khan has made the song itself a classic. At that time Ash and Abhishek were also working together for J.P. Dutta’s film Umrao Jaan. It is generally believed that working together in this movie brought them closer. They started dating each other. However, it is really surprising that media was unable to catch the two of them together. A few pictures of Aishwarya and Abhishek spending sometime somewhere might have earned a fortune to any film journalist. Still they were unable to produce any photographic evidence of the relationship between two.
Aishwarya and Abhishek never publicly accepted or denied the rumors that they were dating. But there were rumors that the two of them are in love and Abhishek calls Aishwarya on her mobile phone every hour. The media was right about all this and it all came open when Aishwarya’s Mother spoke about how Aishwarya’s astrological signs mis-match with Abhishek. On 14 January 2007, Aishwarya and Abhishek officially announced their engagement.
The two actors appeared in several movies together, in Umrao Jaan Aishwarya Rai was directed by J. P. Dutta who introduced Abhishek to bollywood viewers. Later Abhishek was directed by Mani Ratnam in ‘Guru’, Mani Ratnam introduced Aishwarya in his movie “Iruvar”. They appeared in Dhoom 2, though this time not as a pair.
The astrological hurdles in Aishwarya’s marriage to Abhishek has produced lots of criticism all over. Aishwarya Rai along with her family and the Bachchan family took part in several religious ceremonies in different Temples around India. She married trees to remove the bad affects Mars from her horoscope. A petition was filed in Patna high court demanding the Bachchan and Rai families to publicly apologize for this act.
Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek are getting married this month (March 2007). Their marriage event is expected to be one of the most prestigious weddings in the Indian history.
