Aishwarya Rai Bachchan – Grand baby shower!

Mumbai, Oct 19 (TruthDive): Aishwarya’s mother-in-law and Amitabh Bachchan’s wife Jaya Bachchan hosted a grand godh bharai for daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan on October 18 at their residence at Jalsa. They celebrated all traditions and customs in a grand manner. Source says, “The Bachchans are known to be very traditional”.

Jaya planned everything down to the last detail – from the menu to what her bahu will wear, to the jewellery, singing and dancing.

The Bandra house was decorated with flowers, and was packed with people in the afternoon. The entrance of the bungalow was beautifully decorated with white flowers.

Aishwarya’s husband Abhishek, who was busy shooting for ‘Bol Bachchan’ in Jaipur, took a day off for the ceremony while his sister Shweta flew down from Delhi for the special event. But father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan was missing from the function as he is currently in Australia shooting for Hollywood film ‘The Great Gatsby’.

Dressed in Indian finery, friends and colleagues of the family poured in bearing gifts for the expecting mum. Father-to-be Abhishek Bachchan was seen at the entrance, right before the ceremony started.

Aishwarya is said to have worn an orange-coloured Indian ensemble for the occasion. If guests are to be believed, she looked ethereal, with the glow of any mother-to-be on her face.

Those, who attended the ceremony, include Asha Parekh, Sonali Bendre, Saroj Khan, Twinkle Khanna, Dimple Kapadia, Manyata Dutt, Vaibhavi Merchant, Bipasha Basu, Urmila Matondkar, Shaina NC and others.

“Aishwarya was looking like a chand ka tukda. She was looking beautiful. We wish Abhishek and Aishwarya all the best,” Saira Banu, who gifted Aishwarya a gold coin, told a news channel.

Abhishek thanked the guests, fans and well-wishers and the 35 year old Abhishek was back on the sets on the same day.

As per Indian customs, Ash will go to her mother’s house after the baby shower and the Rais will follow their own customs and traditions.

Aishwarya’s due date is next month and the entire Bachchan family is set to welcome the new member.
