Apart from Cannes, Aaradhya often accompanies her mother on various work trips and frequently attends other red-carpet events with her. In an interview with Firstpost, Aishwarya opened up about taking her daughter along and said. 'I take her with me everywhere so she is a part of my multi-tasking life. I keep it as real for her as possible, and very normal. Now she is in school like any normal girl. But even when she was a toddler, I'd take her to the play-park to be with other children. It becomes difficult in Mumbai. But when I'm travelling, I take her out to the park. Even there, there are people who recognise us. But they are normal parents and children. Aaradhya has to have a normal life. I've explained to her that is my life and now she's part of it. So she's comfortable in it.'
She added, 'It didn't just happen. One has to work on it, channel all energies into keeping it all real and normal for Aaradhya. I am glad I took time off to work on looking after her. When people meet Aaradhya, they say she's such a normal child. That's my reward as a mother.'
