Aaradhya Bachchan recently stole the spotlight at the 2024 South Indian International Movie Awards (SIIMA), not just with her presence alongside her mother, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, but also for a humble gesture that deeply resonated with fans. During the award ceremony held in Dubai, Aaradhya touched the feet of veteran actor Shiva Rajkumar, an act that symbolizes respect in Indian culture. This heartwarming moment became the highlight of the event and generated a wave of admiration across social media.

A Display of Values and Tradition

Aaradhya’s gesture did not go unnoticed, with many netizens praising the young girl for her deep respect for elders. The act of touching the feet, known as "pranam," is considered a traditional Indian way of seeking blessings from elders. In a world where cultural values are often overshadowed, Aaradhya's action showcased the upbringing and values instilled in her by her mother, Aishwarya Rai.



The comment section of the viral post was flooded with reactions, with one user stating, “Aishwarya has raised a sanskari daughter.” The word "sanskari" refers to someone who has been raised with good cultural values. This expression of admiration became a common theme as people commented on Aaradhya's humility, contrasting it with the modern, often fast-paced, lifestyles of today's youth.
