Celebrity Couple Rings in 2026 with a Fan Moment

Bollywood’s iconic power couple, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan, welcomed New Year 2026 while enjoying a serene getaway in New York City. During their holiday, the couple created a memorable moment for a fan by agreeing to a selfie, which quickly made rounds on social media platforms.

The couple, married since 2008, appeared effortlessly stylish. Aishwarya was seen in a cozy, elegant winter outfit, keeping her look natural and understated, while Abhishek complemented his casual attire with a splash of color through his red spectacles.

This moment comes shortly after images of fellow Bollywood stars, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, enjoying New Year celebrations in New York also circulated online.

Family Vacation and Airport Appearance

Prior to this, Aishwarya and Abhishek made a rare public appearance at Mumbai airport as they departed for their holiday. Their daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan, accompanied them, keeping the family outing intimate yet charming.

In a recent interview, Abhishek Bachchan addressed questions about Aaradhya’s awareness of rumors surrounding her parents. He said:

“I hope not. She’s a very mature girl. She’s a wonderful girl, and her mother has done a wonderful job. She doesn’t have a phone; she’s 14. If her friends want to get in touch with her, they have to call her mother’s phone. That’s something we decided on a long time ago.”

A Journey of Love and Cinema

Aishwarya and Abhishek first crossed paths in the early 2000s and went on to collaborate in films like Dhoom 2 and Guru. They married in April 2007 and welcomed Aaradhya in 2011. Over the years, the couple has largely maintained their privacy, addressing rumors sparingly and selectively.

Upcoming Projects and Future Plans

• Aishwarya Rai Bachchan: Last seen in Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan: II (2023); next project yet to be announced.

• Abhishek Bachchan: Recently starred in Kaalidhar Laapata and will appear next in Siddharth Anand’s King, alongside Shah Rukh Khan and Suhana Khan.

The couple’s New Year outing in New York showcased Bollywood glamour, family bonds, and their continued ability to inspire fans worldwide.
