Actor Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was spotted by shutterbugs as she arrived at the Mumbai airport from Delhi, on Thursday.
The 39-year-old no longer seemed to be having qualms about getting her 15-month old daughter, Aaradhya photographed.
MEANWHILE...
There are star kids, and then there is Aaradhya Bachchan. From the moment she was born, the nation’s been talking about her, the paparazzi has been trying to click photos of her, even as her parents have doggedly tried to prevent ex
actly that.
But on Thursday (November 1, Aishwarya’s birthday), the photographers finally had their way. As mother Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was presented the prestigious French civilian honour — the Chevalier dans l’ordre des Arts et des Lettres — at a suburban hotel, Aaradhya managed to get a lion’s share of the attention. Abhi-Ash’s daughter will turn a year old on November 15.

{{/usCountry}}The evening started out all prim and propah as everyone, including Amitabh, Abhishek and the Rai family, took their seats. But it was evidently all too formal for the young Ms Bachchan who decided to throw a fit. Though Abhishek played the doting dad, Aaradhya was not impressed when her mother left her to go up on the stage and receive the award. She bawled so hard that the ceremony had to stop till she was carried out of the venue by her daddy.
A little later, HT Café made Aaradhya’s acquaintance in the next room as she played with her toys, too busy to be interested in strangers. Her resemblance to her papa is marked: she’s already a tall baby for her age, with long fingers and her father’s sharp nose. And if her attire is anything go by, we reckon that as she grows up, she’ll get a fair share of her mother and grandfather Amitabh’s sense of style.
