Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan embraced parenthood in November 2011, as they welcomed their daughter, Aaradhya.

The couple were enjoying their beautiful phase in life as new parents, and did you know they took four months to name their daughter? Yes, that's exactly what happened!

In an interview with Vogue India in 2012, Aishwarya Rai opened up about why they took about four months to finalize the name - Aaradhya Bachchan. The gorgeous actress shared about the meaning of the name. She said that ‘Aaradhya’ means ‘one who is worthy of worship’, and it was a name both Abhishek and she had always considered. However, they also decided to involve their extended family in the decision-making process.

Aishwarya Rai also added that time seemed to pass quickly during those initial months of welcoming her daughter and admitted that she was unaware of how long it had taken to name their daughter. She reflected on how time, particularly after the arrival of a new baby, felt like a luxury they could never have enough of.
