The Ghajini actress Asin Thottumkal has been keeping a low profile for years, especially choosing to keep her personal life extra private.

However, in a rare turn of events, Asin shared a series of snap from the occasion of Onam, featuring her daughter, Arin, as she gave fans a glimpse into the festival celebrations at home.

On Wednesday, August 26, Asin turned to her Instagram Stories to share clicks of Arin's Onam celebrations.

The eight-year-old was dressed in a vibrant traditional yellow and orange outfit, and was seen making a colourful floral rangoli (Pookalam) with flowers, as her father joined in the tradition.

In the pictures, Arin was seen flaunting her long, thick hair, which she wore loose.
