Sonam Kapoor had created controversy by calling 36-year-old Aishwarya Rai “aunty”. Later he clarified and also supported Aishwarya’s Cannes look. Aishwarya’s presence at Sonam’s wedding in 2018 hinted at a reconciliation between the two.
Sonam Kapoor is known for her bold style, outspoken statements and tremendous fashion sense. Nowadays she is enjoying motherhood and is a little away from the film world. She likes to spend time with her husband Anand Ahuja and sons, which is reflected on her Instagram. But let us tell you that years old story, when Sonam had made a comment on 36 year old Aishwarya Rai. In fact, when Sonam Kapoor was made the new face of ‘L’Oréal Paris’, she called Aishwarya the “second generation aunty”. Sonam herself was 25 years old at that time. His statement was accused of age-shaming and misbehavior and received a lot of criticism.
When Sonam clarified on calling him ‘Aunty’
Although Aishwarya did not say anything in public on Sonam’s comment, Sonam definitely talked about it. Years later, speaking to Hindustan Times, Sonam said, “Aish has worked with my father, so I have to call her aunty, right!” When Aishwarya Rai wore purple lipstick on the red carpet of Cannes Film Festival, fashion critics did not like it much. But then Sonam supported Aishwarya while talking to PTI.

She told the news agency, “The whole point of fashion and make-up is to have people talking about it. I think she wanted it to be talked about. What she wanted, she achieved it, which is great. I think she looked great and she carried it brilliantly. It’s cool to do that in the 15th year. She was trending everywhere.”
Is everything okay now?
However, after all this, in the year 2018, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was seen having a lot of fun at Sonam and Anand’s wedding. From this it can be inferred that everything is fine between the two now.
