Aishwarya Rai Sparks Speculation After Dropping “Bachchan” at Dubai Event

Web Desk — A recent video of Bollywood icon Aishwarya Rai has sparked widespread conversations on social media.

The actress attended the Global Women’s Forum in Dubai, where she delivered a moving speech emphasizing women’s empowerment.

A clip shared on the event’s official Instagram account shows Aishwarya on stage, with a large screen behind her displaying the name “Aishwarya Rai, International Star,” noticeably excluding the “Bachchan” surname.

This detail fueled speculation online, with many wondering if Aishwarya has officially dropped “Bachchan” from her name.

However, her Instagram profile still includes the surname, suggesting that no formal change has been made.

While some fans saw the omission as a professional choice for the event, others highlighted that Aishwarya has long established her independent identity and doesn’t rely on the Bachchan name for recognition.
