Actor Aishwarya Rai Bachchan paid a touching tribute to her late father Krishnaraj Rai on his birth anniversary, celebrating their enduring bond and the love he still shares with their family. Taking to social media, Aishwarya shared a poignant set of "then and now" photographs featuring her daughter Aaradhya Bachchan alongside her grandfather's portrait. The intimate images capture the special connection between Krishnaraj Rai and Aaradhya, who has grown up without knowing her grandfather but continues to feel his presence. In a heartfelt note accompanying the photos, Aishwarya expressed her gratitude to her father for his infinite love and blessings, particularly as their daughter Aaradhya turned 14. Krishnaraj Rai passed away in 2017 after a prolonged illness, leaving behind a lasting impact on his family. Aishwarya has made it a tradition to honour his memory on both his birth and death anniversaries. Aishwarya's last notable appearance was in Mani Ratnam's 2023 epic historical action drama Ponniyin Selvan: Part 2, which earned positive reviews and was a commercial success. Her performance in the film earned her the Best Actress in a Leading Role (Critics) award at the South Indian International Movie Awards. Her husband, actor Abhishek Bachchan, praised her portrayal, calling it her "best work till date."
