When Zeenat Aman's Son Embarassed Her On A 1995 Vacation In Mauritius

Zeenat Aman has shared a funny anecdote involving her sons Azaan and Zahaan

To say that Zeenat Aman's Instagram timeline is a breath of fresh air would be an understatement. From personal anecdotes to professional throwbacks, the yesteryear superstar believes in keeping it real for her fans. Her latest post on the photo-sharing app is no different. Attached to lovely throwback images is a funny anecdote involving the actress and her sons Azaan and Zahaan. Recounting an incident that took place in 1995, Zeenat Aman began, “In every parent's life there inevitably comes a time when your child embarrasses you. The year was 1995 and we were off on a family holiday to Mauritius. I had been invited as a state guest to attend an event, and had decided to make the most of my visit by taking the boys along and extending our stay.”

The Yaadon Ki Baaraat actress continued, “It was a summer holiday par excellence. The resort was plush, the food was delicious, the waters were crystal clear, and the boys ran amuck. They spent the better part of each day in the swimming pool, and sure enough, by day five Azaan picked up an ear infection. Fortunately, there was a pristine white infirmary, with a little waiting room and a clinic, attached to the resort. Since I didn't have a nanny, 5-year-old Zahaan had to tag along with us to his older brother's doctor's appointment. I left him seated in the waiting room with a colouring book to keep him busy, while I accompanied Azaan in to see the doctor.”

What happened next made Zeenat Aman's jaw drop, she joked. “We couldn't have been gone for more than 20 minutes. It was a relatively minor issue, and the lovely, rather serious doctor, attended to it swiftly. So, imagine our surprise when we re-entered the waiting room to find that Zahaan had taken it upon himself to do a little redecorating. He had discovered the clinic's stamp and an ink pad at the vacant receptionist's desk and had proceeded to furiously stamp the spotless walls of the waiting room!” she said
