Last week, the Bollywood beauty left for the Dubai World Cup along with her baby girl. "Unfortunately, Abhishek wasn't able to accompany them due to work commitments in Mumbai. So Ash and the baby took the flight along with her mother Vrinda, the baby's nanny and her PR manager," says a source.

They stayed at a luxury hotel in Dubai adds an insider, "The brand people had booked a private suite for Ash and her entourage. When she was at the event, the baby was to be looked after by her grandmother and nanny. It was a commitment made by Ash a while ago, so she didn't want to back out."

According to the source, though the logistics of the trip were a nightmare with a baby on board, Ash couldn't bear to leave her behind. "Also, she is still nursing Aaradhya, who is nearly five months old. The trip was planned well in advance to get the baby's passport in order. Since this is the first time Aaradhya was travelling abroad, all necessary precautions had also been taken."
