It has been years that fans have been requesting Bollywood actor Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to join the social media. The actor who is a private person despite her career choice decided to stay away despite the entreaties. Even husband Abhishek Bachchan and father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan’s successful presence on social media could not tempt her. However, all that changed Friday when Aishwarya started her Instagram account before she walks the Cannes red carpet again.

The actor posted a throwback photo with daughter Aaradhya, probably one from the family album. Aaradhya is seen as an infant and both the mother and daughter are in silhouettes. Also, instead of using one photo, Aishwarya used the grid view to post the photo. She captioned the photo, “And I was born...again...💖✨.” Using the grid as the first Instagram photo collage was the choice of Aamir Khan as well when he came to the platform earlier this year. Aaradhya has also accompanied Aishwarya to Cannes like last year.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan shared a throwback photo with Aaradhya on Instagram and wrote how she was ‘born again’ in the moment.

Among the cutest comments on the photo was from daddy Abhishek. Soon after the actress uploaded the grid Junior Bachchan commented,” How about a photo credit Mrs.B?” In the past, Abhishek would often share photos of Aishwarya walking the red carpet at Cannes. The actor has already been a part of the prestigious film festival for 17 years.

Aishwarya has said earlier about her daughter, “Aaradhya and I have a soul connect. My day begins and ends with her. From the moment I wake up my entire perspective on the day is centred on her. Her constant presence in my life is not even something I consciously think about it. It’s just there! And I wonder how I lived before she was born. Only a parent would understand how I feel.”

However, as far as Instagram debuts go, Aishwarya’s has been underwhelming. The actor’s Instagram profile is yet to get that all important blue tick which signifies it as verified. This left most fans wondering if it indeed was Aishwarya’s official account. This probably also explains that why the number of followers is still 1,04,000 a day after the actor made her debut.

On Friday, her reps shared a screenshot of the actress’ official account on their Instagram page with the caption, “Official Instagram handle of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan announced – https://www.instagram.com/aishwaryaraibachchan_arb/.”

Among the Bollywood celebs who follow Aishwarya as of now is Sonam Kapoor and Abhishek.

Aishwarya is awaiting the release of Fanne Khan, in which she stars with Anil Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao.
