Past appearances that caught attention
This isn’t the first time Ariana has captured public attention. A few months ago, she and Mahima made a graceful appearance at the re-release screening of Rekha’s Umrao Jaan in Mumbai. Ariana’s gesture of touching veteran actor Raj Babbar’s feet, along with her cousin Ryan, went viral and won hearts.
Ariana also turned heads at the screening of Mahima’s recent film Nadaaniyaan, further fueling speculation about her possible entry into the film industry.
A proud mother’s heartfelt note
Ariana is Mahima’s daughter with her ex-husband, Bobby Mukherjee.
The two tied the knot in 2006 and divorced in 2013. Earlier this year, Mahima celebrated Ariana’s graduation with a touching social media post, reflecting on her journey as a single mother.
“Watching you graduate fills me with pride. Congratulations, my sweetheart. I started this journey alone, but I had you. I didn’t know how it would all work out, but I just knew I wanted you to have the best education. I went back to work because of you,” Mahima wrote.
She added, “I thought I was doing this all for you, but my baby, you ended up doing so much more for me... This moment is ours. You and I did this together. May all your dreams come true. I love you so much my baby.”
