Actor Abhishek Bachchan recently opened up about his and wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s parenting style. The couple, who married in 2007, welcomed their daughter Aaradhya Bachchan in 2011. While Abhishek usually avoids discussing his private life, he spoke about their approach to raising their now-teenage daughter, emphasising that they do not let gender define parenting roles and instead believe in leading by example.

In a recent chat with Lilly Singh, Abhishek said, “In my home, as parents, both of us try to be the best example for Aaradhya instead of telling her what is right and what is wrong. We believe in showing what to do by being that ourselves. It’s never been like, ‘I’ll teach her self-defence and you teach her empathy.’ It’s not divided that way.”
