Actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s daughter Aaradhya Bachchan joined Mani Ratnam, Suhasini Maniratnam and the cast of Ponniyin Selvan 1 for a special screening of the film in Chennai. While pictures had surfaced earlier in the day, the film’s production house, Lyca Productions, shared a video featuring montages of the best moments from the screening. It comes as no surprise that Aaradhya was the biggest highlight of the video.
The star daughter was seen close to her mother throughout the screening but did not shy away from celebrating the filmmaker and the movie. Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter was seen hooting for Mani Ratnam with her mother, Aishwarya joining her.
In another portion of the video, Aaradhya was seen giving Ratnam a warm hug and even posing for a picture with him and Suhasini. Also present at the screening were Karthi, Trisha, Chiyaan Vikram and Jayam Ravi.
