It has been declared now that Aishwarya is going to change her surname from Rai to Bacchan. Aishwarya by taking this decision surely, has given the indication that she will respest her family culture more than her stardom.

Niraj Mancchanda the famous Numerologist had suggested the name Aishwarya Bachchan because her name would come to number 46 and as she is number 1 (born on Nov 1) she should use her own number as it is always better to use you own number. Whereas Sanjay Jumani and Anupam Kapil had suggested Aishwarya Rai Bachchan so that she uses number 5 (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan comes to number 50).”
