Mumbai, September 1, 2025 — Bollywood icon Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, accompanied by her daughter Aaradhya Bachchan, marked the auspicious occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi with a graceful visit to the Gaud Saraswat Brahmin (GSB) Seva Mandal Ganpati pandal at King’s Circle, Mumbai. The mother-daughter duo was warmly received by devotees and fans as they participated in the festive celebrations and sought blessings from Lord Ganesha.
Aishwarya, known for her deep spiritual connect and annual visits to the GSB Ganeshotsav, arrived in a traditional white salwar-kameez, complemented by a delicate bindi and bold red lipstick. Aaradhya, dressed in a mustard-yellow ethnic suit, mirrored her mother’s poise and devotion. The two were seen greeting devotees with folded hands, posing for photographs, and engaging warmly with fans who had gathered at the pandal.
Videos and images from the visit quickly went viral across social media platforms, with fans praising Aishwarya for instilling cultural values in her daughter. Many commented on the duo’s elegance and their consistent presence at religious events. One fan remarked on Aaradhya’s resemblance to the late South Indian actress Soundarya, while others lauded Aishwarya’s humility and grace.
This year’s visit also included Aishwarya’s mother, Brinda Rai, who joined them in a vibrant silk saree. The trio’s appearance added a familial warmth to the spiritual outing, reinforcing the Bachchan family’s tradition of celebrating Indian festivals with sincerity and reverence.
On the professional front, Aishwarya was last seen in Mani Ratnam’s epic period drama Ponniyin Selvan: II. While she has yet to announce her next film project, she continues to make notable public appearances, including her recent presence at the Cannes Film Festival. In addition, she has been part of a L’Oréal Paris campaign addressing the impact of social media on self-worth, particularly among younger generations.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s annual pandal visits have become a cherished part of Mumbai’s Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations, blending celebrity presence with genuine devotion. Her appearance this year, alongside Aaradhya, once again highlighted the enduring bond between tradition, family, and faith.
