Mumbai, May 21 (IANS) She is all of three-and-half years old, but little Aaradhya Bachchan has already got used to the paparazzi, says her celebrity mother Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

Just before Aishwarya left for Cannes for her commitment as brand ambassador of L’Oreal Paris and to launch the first look of her forthcoming film “Jazbaa”, Aishwarya was seen holding on tight to her bundle of joy at the airport. There were shutterbugs galore, like always.

“Every time we walk out of the airport, house, there are people around, camera is around. I guess, I think she was born to believe it is like this… this is normal to her,” the actress said here Wednesday in a video chat with the media from Cannes.

“The mother in me will be protective. Media wants bytes, photos… So I am going to be protective about her. It is a natural instinct. From her end, there is no major chatter,” she added.

Aishwarya married actor Abhishek Bachchan in 2007 and they welcomed Aaradhya in 2011.
