Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan have one of the strongest, most stable marriages in Bollywood. The couple have a quiet sort of romance, and don’t feel the need to shout about it from the rooftops nor prove their love with extensive PDA on their social media handles.
In a new interview, Abhishek opened up about the most treasured gifts he has ever received from Ash, and it’s extremely cute.

Ash and AB’s Song, and the Incredible Gift
Abhishek, who was on the podcast The Ranveer Show, revealed that the hit Nelly and Kelly Rowland song ‘Dilemma’ is his favourite song, and the couple also consider it their song.
Yes, if you’re a millennial you will instantly remember this song, and the fact that Kelly was trying to text Nelly via Microsoft Excel.

Abhishek said, “You know what she did for me once? We were dating and she got me a present. She got Nelly to autograph his mic. It’s on my table. It’s awesome.”
He also added that he sung with Nelly saying, “I did this track with my dear, dear friend Raghav, an Indian-Canadian singer. So Raghav approached me and said, ‘Hey I am doing this song, you gotta do it. It’s called ‘Until The Sun Comes Up’. And oh, by the way, Nelly’s on it.’ I was like, ‘Let’s do this man! Come one it’s Nelly’.”

Abhishek, who is promoting his latest web series Bob Biswas, spoke to RJ Siddharth Kannan and opened about how the birth of their daughter Aaradhya changed their working styles saying, “A lot of what I am as an actor post marriage is due to Aishwarya. One is the practical, logistic side of it. To know that my wife is with Aaradhya is a huge, emotional weight that if lifted, from many parents’ minds. She has allowed me, and I say allowed cause that’s what it is—she’s given me permission and allowed (and said), ‘You go act, I’ll take care of Aaradhya.’ So you go out, you get the liberty to perform freely and it’s a fact. The countless mothers that do this with their husbands, and you have to be thankful. They have every right to say, ‘Come, show in the responsibility 50-50’.”
These two! Aren’t they adorable?
