MUMBAI: Little did ex-beauty pageant winner and Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan know that she would be treated to such a rousing welcome from her husband Abhishek Bachchan, on her return home.

Asihwarya, who was in London with her beti Aaradhya, was greeted by her doting husband Abhishek Bachchan, and her parents Krishnaraj and Vrinda Rai upon landing in Mumbai. Dressed in an all-black ensemble, the newly svelte mother carried her infant in her arms, while exiting the airport.

The little one perked up on seeing Daddy dearest Abhishek at the arrival terminal, waiting patiently for his wife and daughter to disembark. Abhishek was dressed in a white kurta pyjama, and was overjoyed to see Aishwarya and Aaradhya when they came out.
