Will she be called Aishwarya Rai Bachchan!

If Aishwarya Rai chooses to keep both second names (Rai and Bachchan) after her marriage to Abhishek Bachchan , it would certainly please her father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan .

It would be a remarkable coincidence. We all know that Big B’s father was fondly called Harivansh Rai Bachchan by his admirers.

Amitabh, who loves his deceased father immensely, would indeed be pleased if Ash opts to use both the sir-names after her marriage to Abhishek in the coming weeks. Then she would be called Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

The name would constantly remind Big B of his father and will also be a humble tribute to the man who penned poetic works like Madhushala.

However, Big B has reportedly laid no conditions regarding Ash’s name. She is free to choose any second name. But sources close to Ash are quoted as saying that she wishes to be called Aishwarya Rai Bachchan after her marriage.

It is believed that Ash and Abhi will tie the marital knot on April 20. Very few people have been invited to the wedding, as it would strictly be a private affair.

Meanwhile, wedding preparations are in full swing in both the households (Rais and Bachchans). About 15 kilos of special henna is learnt to be ordered from Rajasthan for Ash’s mehendi ceremony.
