She said that she is aware of the perception that celebrities must have an ‘army of help’ at their disposal. 

 “I spend all my time with Aaradhya, and I have one nanny, by choice. I read comments saying, ‘Ah, she must have an army of help’ and I understand the perception, but I choose this way, which means life is always busy. I respect homemakers for the endless work they do,” she told Vogue.com in 2018.

Aishwarya and her husband Abhishek Bachchan welcomed Aaradhya in 2011. She took a five-year sabbatical from films to focus on motherhood and family. She made her comeback with ‘Jazbaa’ in 2015.

Talking about teaching her daughter the importance of having a positive outlook, Aishwarya said, “I’m a firm believer of the state of the mind, and that’s the means to keep your head above a high level of water, every day.

“That’s something I’m imparting to Aaradhya—that B-positive is not just a blood group and that everything in life is a learning curve. Experience life in the moment, because you’re going to have to live with your experience.”
