Celebrities often get backlash for certain thoughts they share on their social media handles. Back in 2018, Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan shared a series of pictures on his Twitter handle to wish everyone on Women's Day. The actor shared a collage of all the ladies in his life — from his daughter to wife and granddaughters. However, the collage did not include his daughter-in-law, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. This tweet was then called out by a number of people for not mentioning Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Read more about Amitabh Bachchan’s Tweet.

Disappointed as there is no mention of Bollywood 1st International celebrity Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. A self made,talented,Successful, Mother,Daughter, Sister, Wife and most importantly A woman. My all time fav actress in the world. @SrBachchan sir give my regards @juniorbachchan

This is not fair. Not mentioning Aishwarya Rai. This doesn't suit the legendary position that you hold sir. Be it any personal family issues, you shouldn't have done this on a public platform and that too on Women's Day @juniorbachchan @SrBachchan pic.twitter.com/M5eLXYzBR7
