Aishwarya Rai on Aaradhya's upbringing.

Actress
Aishwarya
Rai Bachchan
says her
daughter
Aaradhya's
upbringing is
very normal
and she
would like it to remain that way. "She
has had a very normal upbringing till
now. It's not like we sit her down and
show her our films. I can't say she is
blissfully unaware, she is aware of what
we do. She obviously sees our posters all
over the city. She is aware of who we
are," Aishwarya said.
Aishwarya's five-year-old daughter
accompanied her to the 70th Cannes
Film Festival where the actress walked
the red carpet.
"Because she is travelling with me,
meeting new people, seeing our world, I
don't have to sit her down and tell her
what her mother does. She sees it, she is
growing up with. She has now
developed an ease (with media), which
you all are seeing," she said.
Aishwarya says since Aaradhya is born
into a family of movie stars, she is aware
of little things in the business, such as
getting clicked by photographers
constantly. "She sees photographers
outside our home, airports, everywhere.
People come for selfie requests so
sometimes she photobombs them,
sometimes she says 'mumma, not me
na?' when someone is clicking pictures,
she will back out."
Recently, when the duo arrived at
Cannes, there were pictures of both
Aishwarya and Aaradhya and the actress
shares a funny story.
"There were some pictures where she is
waving, I asked her what she was doing
and she said I was telling them 'no, no
photos, bas theek hai.' That was so cute.
I realised she also posed for pictures
when I was busy."
"This kind of spontaneously naturalness
is lovely and we have encouraged her to
be. I am very particular that Aaradhya
evolves and develops into her own
person and she finds her own calling in
life."
The 43-year-old actress looked like a
modern-day Cinderella in a powder blue
gown by Michael Cinco as she walked the
red carpet at the French Riveria.
When asked if her daughter gives her
any inputs on what to wear, Aishwarya
says not so much. "She has never put nail
polish till date. She is a normal girl who is
aware of all her Disney princesses. I
joked with her teachers that I am going
for the weekend to play fancy dress for
Aaradhya so she kind of gets to see me
in princess gowns," said Aishwarya.

Yeah, what normal five yr old doesn't do jet setting, go to NY, HW, French Riviera and fashion shows on weekends with mom dressed up like a princess

Obviously, Ash means as normal as possible. Traveling the world and the glamour etc comes with her job. And it IS normal for an actress. Just like you would take your kid to a hospital more often if you are a doctor mother.

I prefer Ashs method of parenting than Kareenas hand off aloof method. Aradhya is turning out to be a sweet well brought up girl. I like the way Ash always includes her and never hides her. She's so comfortable being a mother unlike some people.
