Who is Priyanka Gandhis soon-to-be daughter-in-law, Aviva Baig? The talented Delhi-based photographer is also a national-level football player.
Congress leader, Priyanka Gandhi and her billionaire husband, Robert Vadra, are over the moon as their son, Raihan Vadra, is engaged to Aviva Baig. Raihan and Aviva have been dating each other for seven years, and he recently proposed to her in a private ceremony with the approval of both families.
As soon as reports of Raihan and Aviva’s engagement news went viral, people started searching more about Priyanka Gandhi’s soon-to-be daughter-in-law. According to multiple reports, Aviva’s family is based in Delhi and has close ties to the Vadras.
Ananya completed her schooling from Modern School in Delhi and then went on to pursue Journalism and Communication at OP Jindal Global University. After completing her course, Aviva has worked across various media houses. She served as a junior project manager at PROPAGANDA, worked as a marketing intern at Art Chain India. She also did internships with Verve Magazine India and Creative IMAGE Magazine.
Aviva is currently a freelance producer at PlusRymn and is also the co-founder of a photographic studio and production company, Atelier 11. Her company works with many agencies and collaborates with big brands. According to her website:
“Aviva Baig is a Delhi-based photographer whose art captures the versatility of life. Her works reflect the confluence between the simplicity and the complexity of everyday living."
Over the years, Aviva has exhibited her work at ‘You Cannot Miss This’ with Method Gallery, ‘You Cannot Miss This’ as a part of India Art Fair’s Young Collector Programme, The Quorum Club ‘The Illusory World’, and India Design ID, K2 India.
Before photography came into focus, Aviva took a keen interest in sports. Not many people know this, but she is a national-level football player. Apart from arts and sports, another field of her interest is fashion. One look at Aviva’s Instagram with 11,000 followers, and you would know about her fashion game. From metallic elegance to traditional touch, she has always experimented with her style game.
Aviva Baig’s father, Imran Baig, is a businessman, whereas her mother, Nandita Baig, is an interior designer. Aviva’s mother, Nandita, is an old friend of Priyanka Gandhi, and the two families are quite close. As per multiple reports, Nandita has worked on the interior design of the Congress headquarters, Indira Bhawan.
An alumnus of The Doon School in Dehradun, Raihan Vadra pursued higher studies in politics at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), London. Though his entire family is in politics, he has chosen to stay away from the political limelight. Raihan has carved his own path and has pursued photography since the age of ten, drawing inspiration from his grandfather, former Prime Minister, Rajeev Gandhi.
Raihan had his first solo exhibition titled Dark Perception at Bikaner House in New Delhi, and his portfolio includes wildlife, street, and commercial photography. His first solo photography exhibition was inspired by an eye injury he suffered during a school cricket match, because of which he focused largely on black-and-white photography.
Though both families have approved Raihan and Aviva’s union, an elaborate engagement ceremony is expected to take place at Ranthambore. Though there is no update on the couple’s wedding date, reports suggest that it will take place in a couple of months.
