"AOA India Peace be with you," is what 23-year-old Bilawal Bhutto first said as he landed along with his father and Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari in New Delhi on Sunday.
Dressed in a dark pathani suit, Bilawal, the heir apparent, tweeted to announce his landing on Indian soil to his over 14,000 online followers.
"AOA India Peace be with you. I have just landed in Delhi. 1st ever visit," the Oxford-educated chairman of the Pakistan's ruling Pakistan Peoples Party tweeted.
AOA is for Allah-o-Akbar (God is great).
A smiling Bilawal, shook hands with officials present to receive him and his father at the Palam Air Force base and turned to the media waving his hands.
Within minutes of landing, he along with his father left in a black limousine for Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's residence where a lunch is being hosted.
He will later accompany his father to Ajmer to pay obeisance at the shrine of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti in Ajmer.
