Abhishek Bachchan on Criticism: Aishwarya's Secret Weapon!

Abhishek Bachchan on Criticism: Aishwarya's Secret Weapon!
NEWS RATING
In the demanding world of Bollywood, where public figures face constant scrutiny, criticism, and often relentless online trolling, Abhishek Bachchan has shared invaluable insights into how he navigates this challenging landscape. His approach, he reveals, has been significantly shaped by the wisdom of his wife, global icon Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
 
Recent weeks have seen the Bachchan family in the spotlight due to unfounded rumors circulating about Abhishek and Aishwarya's personal lives. While the couple has largely maintained a dignified silence, choosing not to dignify baseless speculation, Abhishek's recent candidness offers a glimpse into their strategy for dealing with such negativity.
 
 
The Inner Battle: Desiring Approval vs. Facing Harsh Realities
 
In a revealing interview, Abhishek Bachchan admitted that he still harbors a deep-seated desire to please everyone and seeks universal approval for his work. "Yes," he affirmed when asked if this idealistic trait persists. "Time teaches you that sometimes you can be foolish. Don't be so idealistic. But I don't ever want to let go of that. The day I say, 'I can't make everyone happy, this is me, take it or leave it,' for a film actor, it's very arrogant, and it will be the death of you. There will be no more desire to improve."
 
However, he acknowledged the inherent human tendency to focus more intensely on the negative feedback. "But I still want to make everyone happy. I still pay attention to all the negative reviews and anybody who says negative things. Sadly, as human nature pays more attention to negativity than positivity."
 
 
Aishwarya's Timeless Wisdom: "It's Water Off a Duck's Back"
 
It is precisely in these moments of grappling with criticism and the onslaught of online trolls that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's advice becomes his steadfast anchor. Abhishek revealed her powerful yet simple perspective:
 
"And Aishwarya always said, 'It's water off a duck's back. Why are you concentrating on the negative stuff? Concentrate on the positive, that so much outweighs anything else.'"
 
This profound wisdom from Aishwarya emphasizes the futility of dwelling on negativity and the paramount importance of focusing on the immense support, love, and constructive feedback that often far overshadows the criticism. It’s a powerful message about mental self-preservation and maintaining one's peace of mind amidst the relentless glare of public life.
 
 
Protecting Family and Confronting Misinformation
 
The couple, who tied the knot in 2007 and are devoted parents to their daughter Aaradhya, have faced consistent public scrutiny. Abhishek highlighted that while earlier, negative comments about him personally didn't affect him as much, the impact is different now that he has a family. He admitted it's "very upsetting" when misinformation and false narratives involve his loved ones. He also pointed out the frustrating reality that even clarifications often get twisted, as "negative news sells."
 
Abhishek's approach, seemingly guided by Aishwarya's practical advice, appears to be one of quiet strength and a steadfast focus on what truly matters – his work, his family, and his own conscience. His recent appearance in films like Housefull 5 and the upcoming Kaalidhar Laapata (streaming July 4 on Zee5) showcase his continued dedication to his craft, rather than getting drawn into public spats or dignifying baseless rumors.
 
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, herself a veteran of dealing with intense public scrutiny throughout her illustrious career, has clearly imparted invaluable lessons to her husband. Their united front and individual strategies for handling the relentless glare of the spotlight serve as a testament to their strong bond and mature approach to navigating the complexities of celebrity life.
 
In an industry where public perception can be overwhelming, Abhishek Bachchan's candid sharing of Aishwarya's timeless advice offers a powerful reminder to prioritize mental well-being, focus on the positive, and ultimately, embrace the sentiment: 'This is me, take it or leave it.'
