Aishwarya Rai - bad luck for the Bachchan’s?

This is something I never intended to say but the entry of Aishwarya Rai into the Bachchan’s family seems to have brought severe bad luck on them. Most of his movies in 2007 were a no show at the box office, barring a few which did just, ok ok. If we look back, say 2 years into the past, Amitabh was always in news but never for the wrong reason. But come Ash, everything started going wrong, right from the marriage to their temple visits across India which created quite an uproar, to his rolls royce which was later said that, it was presented to him for his movie Ekalavya(for tax exemption) , to his land in UP which he had brought posing as a farmer, to his getting sick and getting admitted, to Jaya Bachchan and problems in her party and now, this attack by the MNS on his home and the also the protests that he and his family are facing in Rajasthan with regards the movie Jodha-Akbar and the list goes on.

This could be a mere coincidence but everything is very subtly evident on close observation. I think that Mr.Bachchan made a lot of erroneous decisions off late (though its unclear if they were made on purpose or out of ignorance and wrong advice) . It is seriously dumb on the part of the MNS to say “Mumbai for the Mumbaiker’s”, but it was also seriously very wrong of Mr.Bachchan to go to UP and float a party and perform acts of charity instead of him trying to do something in the place he lives in. UP is ofcoarse his home town but he is indebted to mumbai also which brought him to so much fame and money. I don’t understand whats Amar Singh doing amidst all this, instead of doing what he was appointed to do. He considers himself a "brother" of Mr.Bachchan and well, all I understand is that he seems to be enjoying all the limelight that surrounds the Bachchan's. Recently even when UP was in trouble he was seen attending the music release of one of their films. I think he needs to get his priorities right and do what he should be doing.

Now big B is said to be ill and in hospital again. I hope its nothing serious and wish he gets well soon but i think that Mr.Bachchan should take this time out and go into retrospection and do something that will not tarnish his image any furthur. He is the Shehansha of bollywood and that is what I wish he remains and not get into silly and very avoidable troubles like this and go down in history as one of the greatest artist and not as someone shrowded with controversies.
