Baby Aaradhya’s face was Bollywood’s best-kept secret. Until now.

After ten months of intense trailing, Mumbai’s paparazzi has finally managed to get a full face shot of Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan’s daughter.

The ten-month-old child, clad in a baby pink suit, was caught on camera along with her mother at the Mumbai airport. The mother-daughter duo was heading to Chicago to meet Abhishek, who is shooting the thriller Dhoom 3 in the United States.

The Bachchan clan has been highly secretive about the latest entrant into the family. From the christening to entertaining guests at their home, the Bachchans have tried to shield Aaradhya from prying eyes at every turn.

In an earlier interview with tabloid!, Abhishek repeatedly said that he wanted to give his daughter a “normal upbringing”.

“If I don’t show my daughter, it is secrecy, and if I go around showing her the right way, people say that I am flaunting her. You are damned if you do and damned if you don’t,” said Abhishek, who claimed that he knew about his father Amitabh’s super-star status only after he hit his teens.

“We had a very normal upbringing till then. With Aaradhya too, we take her out, go for walks etc,” said Bachchan.

Even after her birth, only a privileged few in Bollywood were invited to interact with the baby.

Former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan shares his parenting views and told tabloid! over e-mail that she prefers to travel with Aaradhya while on trips overseas. “Life has become quieter, which is very nice. I am spending a lot of time with her and just enjoying being a family. I have learnt to manage my time better with work so that my family time isn’t compromised too much. I prefer to take her with me on travels when the commitments are not too tight. My mother accompanies me to help with Aaradhya, so I am blessed that way,” she said.

Washington, May 26: Making a slight change to the name of their newborn, Tesla CEO Elon Musk and his singer girlfriend Grimes have now named their first child X AE A-Xii.

The difference is only in the numeral part of the name which is now written in the Roman format.

Earlier this month, the celebrity couple hogged headlines for naming their son X AE A-12.

The change in the name came when an Instagram follower of the Canadian singer asked if she had considered changing the name of the child and she replied with, "X AE A-Xii."

However, the performer didn't provide further insight concerning the reason behind the change.

Canadian singer Grimes gave birth to her first child on May 4.

The 32-year-old had earlier taken to Twitter and explained the meaning of the baby's name.

New Delhi, Aug 5: Playback singer S P Balasubrahmanyam on Wednesday confirmed testing positive for COVID-19 with 'mild' symptoms.

The 74-year-old musician shared the information through a video message posted on his official Facebook page.

In the video, the singer detailed about having a little "discomfort" for two days, stating he had chest congestion along with cold and on-off fever, which led him to get tested for the virus.

However, he also mentioned that he could have stayed at home in self-quarantine, as advised, but did not want to put his family in danger, and hence got admitted by his own choice, to recover quickly.

"I am in good hand, I am in good health. Nobody has to worry about this. The fever has subsided, and in two days I'll be discharged and I'll be home. Thanks for the concern," he said in the video message.

Mumbai, Jun 8: Veteran writer-lyricist Javed Akhtar has won the 2020 Richard Dawkins Award for critical thinking, holding religious dogma up to scrutiny, advancing human progress and humanist values.

Akhtar has become the first Indian to be given the honour, which recognises a distinguished individual from the field of science, scholarship, education, or entertainment, who publicly proclaims the values of secularism and rationalism and upholding scientific truth.

Akhtar's wife, veteran actor Shabana Azmi said the award's relevance becomes more prominent especially in the current times when secularism is under attack.

"I am thrilled. I know what a hero Richard Dawkins has been for Javed. The award gains all the more significant because in today’s time when secularism is being attacked by religious fundamentalists of all hues, this award comes as a validation of Javed’s long service to rational thinking," Azmi told PTI.

"Knowing that Richard Dawkins has been your hero since you read 'The Selfish Gene', the prestigious Richard Dawkins Award must be extra special for you @Javedakhtarjadu Saab! It's a truly incredible honour! Congratulations!" Kapoor tweeted.

Dia said Akhtar's win is a proud moment for rhe country.

"Javed Akhtar Saab has won the prestigious Richard Dawkins Award 2020 for critical thinking, holding religious dogma upto scrutiny, advancing human progress and humanist values. He is the only Indian to have won this award! @Javedakhtarjadu Congratulations! You make us proud," Dia wrote.
