The world is celebrating Mother’s Day today (May 12, 2024). Indian celebs have also sung the same lullaby and have filled social media with heartwarming wishes for their mothers. Things got a little too special for director Kiran Rao as she got a happy treat from son Azad and it’s too cute to miss.

For the unversed, Azad is Kiran Rao’s son with ex-husband and actor Aamir Khan who was born via a surrogate in 2011.

What did Azad do for Kiran Rao on Mother’s Day?

The Laapataa Ladies helmer took to her Instagram stories and shared a picture of Azad alongside a plate filled with food (and one empty too). She wrote alongside, “I am one happy mum. My cute son made breakfast (pancakes-no pic) and helped me make lunch today.”

Kiran Rao's Instagram story

Did you know Kiran Rao had a lot of miscarriages before Azad was born?

In a very recent interview with Zoom, Kiran admitted that she wanted to become a mother for a really long time and Azad was born the same year her first directorial Dhobi Ghat released.

She expressed, “I had tried very hard to have a child. For five years, I had had a lot of miscarriages, a lot of personal, physical health issues. I was just finding it very hard to have a child.”

So when Azad was born, Kiran didn’t have to make a decision and simply went on to raise her son leaving back all the glamor of showbiz. Rao went on a complete hiatus to focus on her family and doesn’t even regret that.

She shared, “I enjoyed having Azad so much. Those were some of the best years of my life. I’ll never regret not having made a film in 10 years.”
