The Bachchan family celebrated Raksha Bandhan with great enthusiasm on Thursday. Aishwarya Rai took to Instagram to share a bunch of pictures from her rakhi celebrations with daughter Aaradhya at her mom as well.
In one of the pictures, Aaradhya can be seen applying a tika on her cousin, Agastya Nanda’s forehead (son of Shweta Bachchan Nanda) as Aishwarya looks on. Agastya has all attention his attention on his little cousin as she does the ritual. Wearing a cream lehenga-choli with a striking red dupatta, Aaradhya cuts a pretty picture. Both Aishwarya and Agastya are seen twinning with Aaradhya in cream-coloured outfits.
Aishwarya shared other pictures in which Aaradhya posed with Agastya and elder cousin, Navya Naveli Nanda (Shweta’s daughter). Aishwarya also shared many pictures from rakhi celebrations at her mother’s home. One picture shows Aishwarya with her brother Aditya. In another, Aaradhya stands with Aditya’s two sons. In a third picture, Aishwarya’s sister-in-law Srima does a ritual with the entire family sitting together.
