Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap's daughter Aaliyah doesn't mince her words just like her dad. The star kid was apparently invited to attend Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's wedding festivities, which she turned town and even went on to call the event a âcircus'.
Aaliyah took to her Instagram broadcast channel and wrote, "The Ambani wedding is not a wedding at this point, it's become a circus." Although she admitted enjoying stalking the events leading up to the wedding.
"I was invited to some events because apparently, they're doing PR (???? don't ask me why) but I said no because I would like to believe I have a little more self-respect than to sell myself out for someone's WEDDING," wrote Aaliyah.
