'I didn’t even know a single song': Abhishek Bachchan recalls attending Ariana Grande concert with Aaradhya; what he discovered about young music fans

Ariana Grande may be a familiar name to millions of young music fans, but Abhishek Bachchan discovered the singer’s appeal through a family outing with his daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan. The actor, who enjoys the golden era of Hindi film music, recently recalled being taken to a Grande concert by his 14-year-old daughter during a summer holiday abroad. He went in without knowing the songs but left impressed by the singer’s vocal ability and the energy of her fans. In a conversation with BBC Asian Network, Abhishek also spoke about Aaradhya’s diverse musical preferences, which range from Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo to rock bands popular in the 1980s. His account highlights how parents can discover new interests through their children, even when they do not initially share the same tastes.
