First appearance 13 January 2006
Profile
Date of birth 13 January 2006

Aadi Alahan is one of the twins born to Sunita and Dev Alahan on January 13, 2006. He leaves with his mother and sister Asha soon after he is born. In December 2009, Aadi returns to the Street with Sunita and Asha. Aadi moves into his father's flat in March 2010, after his parents reconcile.

Aadi and Asha think that it would be funny if Aadi goes out onto the balcony of Flat 6, Victoria Court. Sunita tries to get him inside but the door jams. Dev tries, and breaks the door handle. After many attempts to open the balcony door, they fail, though Graeme Proctor is riding by and rescues Aadi just as Sunita is going to call 999.

In August 2010, Aadi is pushed by Simon Barlow and bangs his head, as they play a game, while being babysat by Sophie Webster and Sian Powers. He is later rushed to hospital, when he loses consciousness as a result of the injury. When the doctors discover another bruise on Aadi (as a result of Dev pulling him off the road when a car nearly runs him over some days previously), social services are contacted. Immediately they suspect Dev and Sunita of child abuse and Aadi, along with Asha, is taken into temporary care. Dev and Sunita's names are later cleared of any wrong doing when Simon confesses to hurting Aadi.

Asha returns to the Street in December 2009 with Sunita and Aadi. Upon Asha's return, Sunita thinks that she may have measles, after having spots and a temperature. Sunita's doctor from 2004, Dr Patel, from Rosamund Street Medical Centre visits her home and, much to the relief of a worried Dev & Sunita, it isn't measles—just a virus.

In September 2010, Asha is taken into temporary care, along with her brother, when social services believe that Dev and Sunita may be abusing Aadi. She is soon returned to her parents when it becomes clear that Dev and Sunita are innocent.
