Bollywood Most famous kids

There's something about Bollywood celebrity kids in this country. First, they are celebrities in their own right. Secondly they have been newsmakers since they barely knew how to crawl! One glimpse at a film launch or at a vacation with their parents, and the entire media goes into a frenzy, trying to click them! Remember what a big deal it was when Aishwarya Rai's daughter's Aaradhya Bachchan's pictures first came out in the media? And the same for Shahrukh's kid, AbRam, and Aamir's little one, Azad. Still not convinced? Check out the most photographed celebrity kids right here and let us know if they really deserve all the hype, or just deserve a normal, simple childhood like every other kid.


Yug Devgn

Ajay Devgn and Kajol's kids Nysa and Yug Devgn have often been spotted with mom Kajol at airports and events, especially during Durga Pujas. Only a few days ago, Kajol was spotted at Mumbai airport giving Yug a piggyback ride!



Viaan Raj Kundra

Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra's son, Viaan Raj Kundra, is probably one of those kids who is totally comfortable in front of the camera. Whenever he has been clicked, he's always been smiling at the camera. And recently when the family was on an outing, Viaan couldn't stop smiling for the shutterbugs!


Aaradhya Bachchan

Well, she's Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter and Aishwarya and Abhishek's daughter, so what do you expect? Of course, paparazzi! The media went crazy for one glimpse of the kid, but to no avail! And finally, she started getting spotted at events and airports with mom Aishwarya Rai. Last we heard, she accompanied mommy Aishwarya to her comeback film, Jazbaa's shoot.



Azad Rao Khan

Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao's baby Azad Rao Khan shares a somewhat similar story to that of AbRam Khan. Father to two grown-up kids with his first wife, Aamir Khan had his third kid with his second wife Kiran Rao through surrogacy. He can often be spotted with his parents at airports and the media leaves no opportunity to click the tiny tot! He was clicked recently when the couple left with Azad for Disney Land.


Nitara Khanna

Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna's 2-year-old daughter, Nitara Khanna, is all set to give baba Ramdev some competition! Well, don't worry, she's going nowhere near the man! Twinkle Khanna had recently posted a picture of herself doing yoga while baby Niatara sat next to her, looking at her mother dotingly!


AbRam Khan
Yes, it was national level news when the AbRam was born almost two years back. Shahrukh and Gauri Khan's youngest kid, AbRam was born through surrogacy and there was a huge hue and cry in the media about it. While Shahrukh initially hid him from the media, off late he himself has been sharing AbRam's pictures on social media platforms. In fact, recently the paparazzi has also been clicking him, whether it's at the IPL matches or on the recent Goa vacation with his parents.
