As per Chicago-based journalist Jennifer Hopfinger, who runs a site called The Bollywood Ticket, the baby daughter of Aishwarya and Abhishek Bachchan may be introduced to the world this weekend, with her name revealed on Oprah Winfrey's newest show, Oprah's Next Chapter.
Oprah traveled to India for the first time last January to shoot an episode about India, and the talk-show queen met with Bollywood royalty. Aishwarya—often referred to as "the most beautiful woman in the world"—was featured in the teaser promo for the episode. The actress was a guest on The Oprah Winfrey Show twice, first in 2005 and then in 2009 with her husband Abhishek. The Bachchans' daughter—the first child of their five-year marriage—has been the subject of fascination since her birth last November, but she's been kept largely hidden from the public—with the exception of a glimpse of her leaving the hospital in the arms of her grandfather, Indian film icon Amitabh Bachchan. The little girl has been dubbed "Beti B" by the media (beti is Hindi for daughter). She is rumored to be named Aaradhya, and an official announcement of her name, which has yet to be made, may come on the show. The Bachchans have reportedly been offered huge sums for the first photos of Beti B, and the family has refused. Oprah visited the Bachchan family home during her stay in Mumbai. Wearing an orange sari gifted to her by Aishwarya, Oprah arrived by car with Aishwarya, Abhishek, and Amitabh at a high-profile private party thrown in her honor, which was attended by Bollywood A-listers, including Hrithik Roshan, Anil Kapoor, and Priyanka Chopra. Oprah also visited Mumbai's slums, the Taj Mahal, the Jaipur Literature Festival, and Delhi. |
