Amitabh lashes at media over Aishwarya Rai's birthday rumour

Amitabh Bachchan has lashed out at a certain section of the media for creating rumours of how Aishwarya Rai Bachchan planned to celebrate her birthday on his blog.

Amitabh Bachchan is extremely upset with the media who have been constantly cooking up stories on how Aishwarya Rai would celebrate her birthday (Ash celebrated her birthday on November 1st.) The media has been speculating about Ash's birthday plans much before her birthday. Stories on what gifts Bachchan's plan to give Aishwarya, who the guests are and what they are to be wearing have been doing the rounds for a long time.

Terming all rumour as untrue, Amitabh said, “truth is that nothing of the sort is happening here at home, or any truth in what is being spread about the gifts and the occasion.”

Speaking about the media's intrusion at Aishwarya's godh bharai, Big B wrote on his blog, “On the day of the ‘godh bharai’, they were pushing sneakily their equipment between the cracks in the doorway to the house to get that desired picture or any picture. When controlled by security, they spat on them. Yes they actually spit on the security.”

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to have a grand godh bharai

The Bachchans are gearing up for a grand baby shower for their bahu Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

As Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is approaching her due date (November 2011), Jaya Bachchan will apparently be hosting a grand baby shower or 'godh-bharai' for Ash on October 18 at their residence in Jalsa, Mumbai. Jaya Bachchan's daughter and Abhishek Bachchan's sister Shweta Bachchan has apparently flown in from Delhi to help her mother prepare for the big event.

As per reports in Times of India, the event will be held in the afternoon after which Aishwarya Rai will leave for her mother's home where she will deliver her first born. The Rais will follow their own customs and traditions.

If reports are to be believed, Jaya is focusing on every detail and has even planned on what jewellery Aishwarya will be wearing for her godh bharai. There will be singing, dancing and a lot of entertainment which is expected to be attended by 'whos-who' of the Bollywood industry. Few of the celebrities who will grace the occasion include Sussanne Roshan, Sonali Bendre, Gauri Khan, Maanayata Dutt, Kajol, Twinkle, Khanna and sister Rinke Khanna and Sridevi amongst many others.

The father-to-be Abhishek Bachchan, flew to Mumbai on Saturday from Jaipur. Abhishek has been shooting for the film Bol Bachchan Bol for nearly two months now.
