This gesture won the hearts of netizens as they praised Junior Bachchan and expressed joy for the couple.

While one wrote, “Look how much he loves her," another one added, So happy to see them together."

Tanaaz Irani, who has worked with both the actors, recently revealed how the two are totally opposite of each other.

In an interview with Hindi Rush, the actress revealed, “He is so funny and he is such a prankster. Until the moment I came, he was pulling pranks on everybody, as soon as I came, Vaibhavi (Merchant) told me, ‘Let’s prank Abhishek’. We were about to shoot a rope pulling scene. At this point, she told me ‘You suddenly start screaming, and crying and throwing tantrums.’ I was like, ‘Nobody will believe that me out of all the people is throwing a tantrum’. But we did it on the very first day of my shoot. It was funny.”

“I have worked with Aishwarya in two films, and she is someone extremely serious. She is total opposite of Abhishek Bachchan," she said. She went on to add, “She is so beautiful that every time I looked in a mirror after spending time with her, I would feel conscious. She is that beautiful. You get lost in her beauty. She looked like a doll."
