Alia Bhatt recently returned home from the glamorous pre-wedding celebrations hosted by billionaire Mukesh Ambani for his son Anant. Her first move was to share photos from the events, including one very precious moment: the first-ever Insta photo of her daughter, Raha. Among other snapshots, the award-winning star also posted pictures with her husband Ranbhir’s cousin Kareena Kapoor Khan, putting makeup on together, which she described as “wholesome.” Alia and Ranbir Kapoor had initially refrained from allowing paparazzi to take photos of Raha. However, last year, the couple decided to unveil her face to the public as she turned one year old.

At a press conference ahead of his upcoming movie ‘Tu Jhooti Mein Makaar’, the Indian Express reports that the actor revealed he missed his father everyday and had gotten incredibly emotional about the experience of losing one parent, and how it has shaped his relationship with his daughter:
“I miss him a lot. I miss him every day. Especially now, I have seen The Romantics and hearing him talk I felt really emotional. I remember that day when he was shooting for the show – the next day, he was admitted to the hospital and we lost him in a month’s time. Losing a parent is a very big deal in anyone’s life. I think of him every day. I am also blessed with a daughter. I feel like somewhere he would have been very happy for this moment in my life. He is with me every day. My phone’s wallpaper still has him.”
The ‘Tamasha’ actor had previously talked about his experience of parenting with his wife Alia Bhatt, and revealed that currently his wife and child were in Kashmir and he was missing them both:
“Naturally your heart, body and mind wants to do everything for your child. Unfortunately, Alia is shooting in Kashmir and has taken Raha away with her. I’m terribly missing them both. They are going to be back (in Mumbai) after another five days. So, I am looking forward to that. Alia and me, both being actors, and both being busy at work, we will have to divide our priorities to balance it out.”
