Shortly afterward, Abhishek's famous father Amitabh Bachchan took to his own Twitter account to share his joy of becoming a grandfather. "I AM DADA to the cutest baby girl !!" so his tweet read. He followed it up with another tweet, "A dada ji [a grandfather]... Ecstatic !!!!" before thanking those who sent out congratulatory messages.
Aishwarya, who won the title of Miss World in 1994, was admitted to the Seven Hills Hospital late Monday, November 14 night. Amitabh has since been active on Twitter to offer updates. Hours before the baby's arrival, he wrote, "And as I write, there is still no news from Aishwarya ... your wishes and prayers with us ... Thank you."
