Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai are among the most popular couples of Bollywood who enjoy massive fandom. The two are proud parents to a daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan. While the close bond that the mother-daughter duo shares often catches the internet’s attention, in an earlier interview the Housefull 5 actor had once called Aishwarya 'world's best teacher' revealing that the actress helps their daughter with her studies.

In a conversation with Indian Express in 2022, Abhishek Bachchan was asked if he has ever helped his daughter Aaradhya with schoolwork. In his response, the actor mentioned, “I think she already has the world’s best teacher, which is her mother (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan). I don’t want to downgrade her or her expectations of how a teacher should be like by teaching her. That department is handled by her mother.”


During the conversation, he also revealed that as opposed to him, it was his father and legendary Amitabh Bachchan who used to teach him in his childhood. The Guru actor revealed that his father was brilliant in mathematics, as he was a science student and a great teacher. Having said that, he went on to admit that parents are not good teachers as one grows up.

The 48-year-old actor reasoned that one is scared of what parents would say. He continued by describing his directors as his teachers also, noting how they hold an actor’s hand through the process of filmmaking. So, the actor expressed his belief in teachers being a blessing.
