New Delhi:
Another name has been added to the many floating around for the little Miss Bachchan born to Aishwarya and Abhishek on November 16 - Aaradhya Bachchan - 'one who is worth worshipping', in Sanskrit.
Media reports say the name has been registered by the star couple two days ago with the Bombay Municipal Corporation.
Despite being avid social networkers, Abhishek Bachchan and his father Amitabh Bachchan have steadfastly refused to reveal the name of the little Bachchan on any social platform. Amitabh Bachchan frequently refers to his granddaughter as the "little one", elsewhere she has been referred to as "Beti B".
Many names have been doing the rounds since the Bachchan baby's birth. Just last month celebrity columnist and author Shobhaa De posted this tweet: "Beti B to be named Abhilasha? That's a stroke of genius. Well done,parents. Abhi and Ash. Truly inspired, if true." It wasn't true as Amitabh Bachchan later confirmed on Twitter.
The guessing game over naming of the new Bachchan peaked again days ago. Abhishek Bachchan, while attending the National Indian Leadership Forum where he was a guest speaker, answered a reporter's query on the sidelines with this: "...I mean, we've got a name, and I'll announce it very soon, but in terms of releasing a photograph you know I... if people see her in everyday life that's fine by me but I just think releasing the photograph is a very pompous thing to do."
So will the Bachchans confirm the name for their little Miss on Twitter as they have shared other updates in the past?
It was Amitabh Bachchan who announced Aishwarya's pregnancy on Twitter, while Abhishek posted the first tweet on the birth of his daughter. Followers of Amitabh Bachchan on his blog and Twitter received regular and extensive updates from him during his recent surgery.
Meanwhile, here's a big hug and welcome to little Miss Aaradhya Bachchan, if indeed she is!
