The decision to bank umbilical cord cell had to be taken at a time when taking baby steps to parenthood. And on our part, we did some research, spoke to friends and our families, of course. We were informed about it, said Bachchan, a young mother herself.

Donning a red saree and black blouse with a string of fragrant jasmines decorating her hair bun the traditional attire of women from the South, Bachchan looked elegant and aptly dressed for the day today Parents Day. On being informed it was Parents Day, the mother of two-and-a-half year old Aaradhya said, Every day is Parents Day.

We are meant to have such a beautiful experience in our lives and let us celebrate that emotion every week and day in our lives.
