Actress  has shared a heartwarming anecdote about the 바카라˜little black dot바카라™ ie 바카라˜bottu바카라™ (bindi), from initial reluctance to wear it to forming a special attachment, now fondly referring to it as her 바카라˜favourite바카라™ adornment.

Hailing from Hyderabad, Aditi was born to a Muslim father, and Buddhist practicing mother.

Known for her work in movies like 바카라˜Delhi 6바카라™, 바카라˜Murder 3바카라™, 바카라˜바카라™, Aditi is an avid social media user, and enjoys 10.7 million followers on Instagram.

On Saturday, the  took to Instagram, and dropped gorgeous pictures of herself in a lehenga. The black coloured lehenga has an intricate embroidery work on it, and she paired it with a matching blouse with a sweetheart neckline, and a transparent dupatta.

Aditi opted for a neutral makeup look, heavy brows, and nude pink rosy lips. Her hair was styled in her signature manner, i.e. left open with a middle partition. For the accessories, she opted for multicoloured bangles in one hand, and matching jhumkas.

The overall look was completed with a black bindi.

Elaborating on the little black bindi, Aditi penned a heartfelt note, reminiscing about her childhood days.

The actress wrote: 바카라œThe little black dot! I never wanted to wear a bottu (that's what a bindi is called in Hyderabad) when I was little. It's so much a part of the southern Indian tradition, it doesn't even count as dressing up. My mother wears a kumkum bottu made out of turmeric in the most beautiful vermillion, l used to watch her make her kumkum bottu, just that and she would glow without a spot of make up. I'd go to dance class and wear my neat middle parted long braid with no fuss but I just did not want to wear a bottu!바카라

바카라œIt was years later when I started shooting for 'Kaatru Veliyidai' with mani sir that I got attached to this little black dot on my forehead. From the costume trials with Eka (@ekalakhani) To shooting in Ooty, Ladakh, Serbia, the freezing cold, my Rudolph red nose and my little black bottu. And here it is! My favourite little black bottu,바카라 added Aditi.

Meanwhile, on the professional front, Aditi last appeared in the Tamil movie 바카라˜Hey Sinamika바카라™. She next has 바카라˜Gandhi Talks바카라™ and 바카라˜Lioness바카라™ in her kitty.
