Amitabh Cancels 'Aishwarya School' Idea

Amitabh Cancels 'Aishwarya School' Idea

The Bachchan family Bollywood’s iconic figures once made headlines with a promise that remains unfulfilled.

In 2008, Amitabh Bachchan alongside his family laid the foundation for a college in Daulatpur village, Uttar Pradesh, named after his daughter-in-law, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. 

Despite grand plans the college named 'Aishwarya Bachchan Kanya Mahavidyalay,' never materialized.

The project was handed over to the Nishtha Foundation led by Jaya Prada but the college remained a mere blueprint.

In 2018 villagers took matters into their own hands establishing Daulatpur Degree College on a nearby plot with donations from local teacher Satyawan Shukla and his family. 

Amitabh Bachchan is currently busy with Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 and frequently shares updates from the show.

Meanwhile recent social media activity by Abhishek Bachchan about divorce has attracted attention but Amitabh continues to focus on his work.
