The dope is that Aishwarya is planning for motherhood in 2010 and thus keeping herself from any responsibility except her family. Sources in the film industry said that it is because of this reason that Aishwarya is very busy this year, as she wants to finish her assignment

Fed up with constant clamour about extending their family, people close to the couple said that they indeed felt pressurised by the over-inquisitiveness of the people. Approached by even strangers, fans and ever poking media about the status of their family has often annoyed Bachchan, while Aishwarya has shown more composure.

The couple, however, is lucky in the sense that neither Abhishek's nor Aishwarya's parents have pressurised them about adding another member to the family.

Aishwarya, sources said, is working on a plan and that includes parenthood next year, once she finished the flurry of assignments in what is being considered as the busiest phase of her life.
