When Amitabh Bachchan praised Aishwarya Rai for birthing Aaradhya without taking painkillers, opting for C-section

Amitabh Bachchan has always shared a special and loving relationship with his daughter-in-law of nearly 15 years Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and his granddaughter, Abhishek Bachchan's daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan.

On October 11, on the occasion of Bachchan's 79th birthday, Aishwarya also shared a heartwarming wish for her 'Pa' and Aaradhya's 'Dadaji' on her Instagram account. 

Today, we will tell you about an incident that took place after Abhishek and Aishwarya's daughter Aaradhya was born in 2011. Speaking about the new member of the family, Big B had addressed media persons outside of his house. 

Big B had spoken admirably about his daughter-in-law and said that Aishwarya delivered Aaradhya without any epidural or painkillers during labour.

He had said, "We went there on the 14th night. The doctors had told us that the baby could arrive anytime now. On the 16th morning, she delivered the baby. This was a normal delivery even though these days people opt for C-sections and other things. But Aishwarya wanted a normal delivery, she had to struggle but I commend her that she was in acute labour for a long time, almost 2-3 hours. But she persisted, said she wanted a normal delivery. She did not use any epidural or painkiller." 

At the time, Big B had said that, to him, Aaradhya looks like Aishwarya. "Mujhe toh aisa lagra hai ki Aishwarya pe hai. Lekin jaisa ke aap jaante hain, bacchon ki shakal pratidin badalti hai. Main phir bhi manta hu ki Aishwarya ki shakal hai. Ghar mein kuch log samajhte hain ki thoda bahut Jaya, Abhishek se milta hai (I think she looks like Aishwarya but babies' faces keep changing as they grow up. But I still think she looks like Aishwarya. Some people at home think she looks like Jaya and Abhishek)," he had said.
