Media mogul Oprah Winfrey has interviewed Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan on a handful of occasions, and after their first chat, she promised them that she would pay them a visit if she was ever in Mumbai. In 2012, months after Aishwarya had given birth to daughter Aaradhya, Oprah visited her.
As per reports in Indian Express, in a video of the meeting that was shared on the OWN YouTube channel earlier this month, Oprah said that at the time, nobody had seen Aaradhya’s face, nor had her name been revealed to the world. And she, Oprah, got to hold her. “Just like her parents, let me tell you, she’s gorgeous, lit from within,” she said.
“When I called and said I wanted to drop by, they said, ‘Come on by, you cannot bring cameras’,” Oprah added, noting that both Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan were also present. After the meeting, Amitabh asked if Oprah would like to ride with the family to a party that they were all headed to. Hosted by Parmeshwar Godrej, the party had the who’s who of Bollywood in attendance, including Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra, AR Rahman, Javed Akhtar and scores of others.
