Aishwarya Rai and her daughter Aaradhya Bachchan were spotted at Mumbai airport on Sunday night after attending the high-profile wedding festivities of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant. The mother-daughter duo, dressed in coordinated black outfits, were seen leaving the city shortly after the celebrations concluded.
Videos shared by a paparazzo on Instagram show Aishwarya and Aaradhya exiting a grey SUV and making their way into the airport. Despite the photographers’ eagerness for pictures, Aishwarya maintained a polite demeanour, repeatedly asking them to be cautious. She could be heard saying “Take care” as she and Aaradhya displayed their passports and tickets to airport security.
In one video, Aaradhya, appearing alarmed by the photographers’ proximity, echoed her mother’s concern by sternly telling them to be “careful.” She then leaned gently on Aishwarya’s shoulder. Despite the situation, Aishwarya managed to wave and thank the paparazzi, with Aaradhya following suit before they entered the airport.
Aishwarya and Aaradhya were in attendance for the Shubh Vivah and Shubh Ashirwad ceremonies at the Jio World Convention Centre, held on Friday and Saturday. The duo posed together separately from the rest of the Bachchan family, including Abhishek Bachchan, Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, Nikhil Nanda, Shweta Bachchan, Navya Nanda, and Agastya Nanda, who took a family portrait at the wedding ceremony on Friday.
Despite posing separately, Abhishek Bachchan was seen spending time with Aishwarya and Aaradhya during the wedding. The family was also joined by Hrithik Roshan, Aishwarya’s co-star from “Dhoom 2.” Additionally, Aishwarya was spotted sharing a warm hug with expectant mother Deepika Padukone and posing for a selfie with American reality TV star Kim Kardashian, who referred to Aishwarya as a “queen.”
Aishwarya Rai was last seen in Mani Ratnam’s film, “Ponniyin Selvan: II,” which received critical acclaim.
