You’ve been hearing reports for a long time now about how Jaya Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan have been having lots of fights, and while those reports are exaggerated – no, Aishwarya doesn’t plan to walk out of the house and live separately – there is a grain of truth to the rumours. But it’s really no big deal at all: the fights are of the usual saas-bahu variety and the two make up in no time at all.
