Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has been enjoying motherhood ever since her daughter was born and voluntarily has also stayed away from the movies after that. Aishwarya and Abhishek Bachchan tied the knot in 2007 and daughter Aaradhya Bachchan was born in 2011. Since then, she’s been a hands-on mom to her and it’s quite evident as she’s always by her side. A recent viral video of Aishwarya shows her waiting to pick Aaradhya at the airport as she returns from a school tour. Aishwarya can be seen taking photos and videos of her daughter as she walked out of the airport. Aaradhya was beeming with joy to see her mom and straight away hugged her.Later, Aaradhya posed with her friends while Aishwarya turned photographer and this was an adorable sight. As this video went viral, netizens showered love on Aishwarya and called her the ‘best mom ever’. The internet gushed over her simplicity and how she performed regular mom duties despite being a global icon. A user commented, “This looks like a regular mom duty ❤️ Best Mom ever 😍” Another one said, “She is so invested as a mom. How blessed are you Aaradhya.” A fan said, “Best mom.” Someone wrote, “maa toh maa hoti hai.”Aishwarya and Abhishek celebrated their 19th wedding anniversary on April 20, 2026 and the actress shared selfies with her husband and Aaradhya. Earlier in an interview with ETimes, Abhishek had spoken about how grateful he is to Aishwarya for being a hand-on mom to Aaradhya and allowing him to go out and work. He had also shared how she has given a very normal childhood to Aaradhya despite the fact that their entire family is filled with actors and surrounded by fame.
When asked if Aaradhya is used to watching their movies and if she is now accustomed to this world, he had told ETimes in an exclusive chat earlier, “Thankfully, her mother has seamlessly eased her into this world. I think it was very important and Aishwarya handled it beautifully that it wasn’t made into a big deal for her that both her grandparents are from the film world and both your parents are from a film world. We didn’t make it into a ‘big thing’. It was very normal. She’s a very normal kid, the credit of that should entirely go to my wife because she allows me to go out and make my films and she takes care of Aaradhya. I’m sure it can’t be easy but she’s just a normal kid and being that, she’s happiest playing, going to school, interacting with her friends. She doesn’t really want to compulsively watch movies, she’s happy doing other things.”
