None of them are at fault. Sometimes marriages don't work out, and it's better to separate than stay unhappy.
However, Aish benefited more from the marriage in the early years than the Bachhans did. She was sidelined by Bollywood, and marrying into an influential family like the Bachans helped her combat that. Sure, she could have married any wealthy man, but it wouldn't have given her the same advantages as being part of a big Bollywood family. Actresses who marry outside the industry often have to give up their careers, which she clearly wasn't ready to do in 2007.
Aish is the only one who benefited from the marriage. She extended her film career by becoming a Bachchan and got the front seat at every Bollywood event. She used to accompany Amitabh everywhere. She was at every award ceremony, every Bollywood event, every film party, even political events. She got movies (Sarkar Raj, Umrao Jaan, Dhoom 2) because she was Abhishek's girlfriend. She got all possible awards she could get from 2007-2011 because she was Bachchan Bahu. Jaya and Amitabh presented her with specially created awards at IIFA. Amitabh organized The Unforgettable Tour for his beloved Bahurani. He even announced a girl's college named after Bahurani Aishwarya (and not for his daughter Shweta).
From 2007-2011, Bachchans were busy pampering and supporting their Bahurani. She was seen more with Amitabh than with Abhishek and she didn't let Jaya stand next to Amitabh. Jaya had a lot of patience for dealing with a daughter-in-law who clearly overstepped the boundaries.
But did she thank them? Did she ever acknowledge their support? Instead of reciprocating their warmth and support, she started saying only her daughter and her parents matter to her. She started calling Rekha Maa in front of Jaya. What's worse is that she has portrayed them as toxic, misogynists, regressive, and patriarchal.
Bachchans didn't get anything by making Ash their Bahurani. They have more wealth and properties than her and they certainly don't need each other's moneys. The only thing Aishwarya could have given to Bachchans were grandchildren and she didn't give them this joy. She kept her daughter to herself and didn't let Bachchans and even the father Abhishek bond with her daughter. She only let her parents bond with Aaradhya. This is the reason Amitabh and Jaya brought their daughter Shweta and her kids to Mumbai and started pampering them.
Now after cashing on the benefits of being a Bachchan for 17 years, she acts like she doesn't need Bachchan surname....just like she says that Salman ruined her career (even though he boosted her dead career by giving her HDDCS) and that Vivek did the press conference for himself and not because she instigated him too.
Enjoy precious memories of Bachchan Parivaar from happy days
