It’s always a buzz when celebrity families make headlines, and this time, the spotlight falls on Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s sister-in-law, Shrima Rai. She recently dropped a new video on social media. In it, she carefully recreates one of Aishwarya’s stunning makeup looks from the Cannes Film Festival. This video got many people talking. You see, for months, there have been whispers. People thought Aishwarya and Shrima weren’t getting along. So, is this video a sign that things are looking up for the family?
The rumors of trouble started last November. Shrima Rai made some posts online. They hinted that her relationship with Aishwarya might not be smooth. But on a recent Monday, Shrima shared this new video on her Instagram. She showed everyone how to get Aishwarya’s famous Cannes makeup style. Many wondered if this meant their family bond was mending.

A Series of Cannes Makeup Looks
Shrima Rai is married to Aditya Rai, Aishwarya’s brother. She used to be a banker. Now, she makes a living as a content creator. She often shares makeup tutorials on her social media pages. Recreating Aishwarya’s Cannes look was her latest project. Before this, she had already done similar videos for Alia Bhatt and Janhvi Kapoor. She seems to be making a professional series out of it. In her video, Shrima simply said, “Today we will recreate Aishwarya Rai’s Cannes look.”
Why the Talk of a Rift?
Let’s rewind to last November. Shrima Rai put out a social media message. It said she never tried to build a business by using someone else’s name. She also mentioned getting support from her husband and mother-in-law. This post made waves. Rumors had been going around. They suggested Shrima wanted to use Aishwarya’s famous name for a business venture. Aishwarya Rai herself never confirmed these claims. They only appeared in various media reports.
Shrima Rai also faced criticism from social media users. They pointed out that she didn’t post pictures of Aishwarya or her daughter on her Instagram. Shrima had a clear answer for them. She said, “You see their (Aishwarya Rai’s) pictures on their page. Our pictures are not there. Are you satisfied with this?” After this comment, the chatter about a difficult relationship between Shrima Rai and Aishwarya Rai grew even louder.
It seems the world of celebrity families is always full of speculation. While Shrima’s latest video is certainly interesting, it might just be another step in her professional journey as a makeup artist. Sometimes, an Instagram reel is just an Instagram reel.
