Mumbai, Jun 15 (IBNS): Refuting rumours about rift between him and his wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, actor Abhishek Bachchan has said that he won't allow media to dictate his married life.

In an interview to Deccan Chronicle, Abhishek said, “I know what the truth is and I know how far to take the media seriously. I am not going to allow a third party to dictate to me and Aishwarya how we should lead our lives. She knows how much I love her and I know how much she loves me.”

Speaking about the rumour, the actor said: “If you are going to misinterpret something for your own convenience, then go ahead. I am a public figure after all. And I cannot make the media happy all the time."

"My marriage and my life are not going to be dictated by what the media says. So it’s really not an issue for me,” he added.
