Kiran Rao is a social butterfly. The filmmaker is known not only for her creative work behind the camera but also for her light-hearted and candid presence on social media. Kiran’s post makes her a favourite
among fans who appreciate real moments over curated glamour. Giving another glimpse of her no-filter personality, Kiran recently delighted fans with a series of mirror selfies taken in the lift of her apartment building.
Taking to Instagram, she gave viewers a look at her stylish avatars. From rocking a casual look to exuding charm in a light dress, Kiran truly makes jaws drop every time she heads out. In one of the pictures, she gave a sneak peek of her gym look. The last picture, which she called a ‘bedhead’ photo, is our favourite. It features the Laapataa Ladies director with her son, who is taller than her.

Fondly calling the pictures “Landing Looks,” Kiran wrote, “My apartment landing and the building elevators have better mirrors than any in my house, I’m not ashamed to admit. I use them sometimes to quickly check how I’m looking as I head out, which has resulted in these unfiltered pictures, a series that I’m titling Landing Looks.”
She added a personal touch by including a selfie featuring her son, Azad Rao Khan. “Mostly a plethora of bad hair days, but the last one is actually ‘bed head’ (first thing in the morning), a photo just to document how Azad is now taller than me,” she shared.
