### Aishwarya Rai Confirms Split from Abhishek Bachchan Amid Rumors of Affair with Nimrat Kaur

In the world of Bollywood, where celebrity relationships are always in the spotlight, the marriage between Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan has been the subject of much speculation. The power couple, who tied the knot in 2007, are now rumored to have parted ways, sparking intense public interest and countless rumors about the reasons behind their split. According to recent reports, an alleged affair between Abhishek and fellow Bollywood actress Nimrat Kaur has added fuel to the fire.

The rumors intensified after Aishwarya Rai was noticeably absent from Amitabh Bachchan’s 82nd birthday celebrations on October 11th, a significant occasion for the Bachchan family. While the event was attended by Abhishek, Shweta Bachchan Nanda, and other family members, Aishwarya’s absence was glaring. Fans quickly picked up on her missing presence, particularly since she has been absent from similar events in previous years.

Videos played during the celebration included heartfelt messages from various members of the Bachchan family, as well as a few photos of Aishwarya and Abhishek’s daughter, Aaradhya. However, Aishwarya was nowhere to be seen, sparking immediate speculation that the couple’s relationship had hit a rough patch. This fueled rumors that Aishwarya and Abhishek had quietly separated.

Adding to the speculation, Abhishek recently revealed that he is no longer living in the Bachchan family home, Jalsa, where his parents, Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan, reside. He stated in an interview, “I’m not living there anymore. Jalsa is where my parents live. I actually stay in a house called Vastu, which is right next door.” This clarification led many to believe that there were indeed issues within the household, especially when combined with the rumors of his alleged affair.

Media reports have claimed that Abhishek has been romantically involved with actress Nimrat Kaur, known for her roles in films such as *The Lunchbox* and *Airlift*. According to some sources, the two grew close during the filming of a project together, leading to an emotional connection that ultimately caused a rift between Abhishek and Aishwarya. Social media platforms, particularly Reddit, have been buzzing with claims that Abhishek’s affair with Nimrat is the reason behind the couple’s separation. The posts allege that Abhishek “fell in love” with Nimrat during the shooting of a film, causing tension in his marriage.

While neither Aishwarya nor Abhishek have made any official statements regarding their relationship, the absence of Aishwarya from family events and Abhishek’s separate living arrangements have only added to the public’s suspicions. Fans have been dissecting every piece of news and rumor, trying to understand the real cause behind the possible split.

It is also reported that Aishwarya is currently living with her mother and her daughter Aaradhya, further deepening the rumors of a separation. Speculations are growing as fans wait to hear confirmation from the couple about their current status.

The supposed love triangle between Abhishek, Aishwarya, and Nimrat has captivated Bollywood followers, as the public continues to delve into the details of their relationship. If the rumors are true, this would be one of the most shocking splits in Bollywood in recent times. For now, though, fans can only speculate, as the Bachchans remain tight-lipped about the status of Aishwarya and Abhishek’s marriage.

As the media continues to follow this story closely, all eyes are on the Bachchans to see what happens next. Will they confirm their separation, or will this just be another baseless rumor in the whirlwind of celebrity gossip? Only time will tell.
