Aishwarya Rai Facts
Here are the quick facts on Aishwarya Rai:
- During the song scenes in Dola Re Dola, Madhuri Dixit and Ash danced in lavish costumes and jewelry in Bhansali’s hit film Devdas. Aishwarya’s ears bled because of the heavy earrings she wore (to help in their authenticity). But she didn’t stop. She completed the dance scene.
- Do you know, Aishwarya was approached to be the “host” at the 77th Annual Academy awards in 2005? She did not. As she was shooting for “Mistress of Spices, ” Aishwarya had to give up the offer. It’s very sad!
- A question – was activating genes within her? No, not ah, an easy way. Aishwarya wanted to be an Architect. But then, Modelling happened, then Films, then Marriage, pregnancy, etc.
- Most of you would recall the Mumbai riots in 1992-93 as tragic (which it was). But during the Mumbai riots, Aishwarya’s famous Pepsi TVC co-starring Aamir Khan was shot in a single night.
- Apparently (we will have to believe it too) when Pres. George Bush visited India in March 2006, he had invited Aishwarya Rai (and Aamir Khan) to a luncheon. But she was unable to attend. Why? She was shooting for Dhoom 2 (2006) in Brazil. What a loss!
- When she was in Class 9th, Aishwarya had featured in her ‘first’ commercial ad for Camlin Pencils. The slogan then (or now) for Camlin should have been – Style Se Likho! Like? Love?
- So much for the flowers – do you know Tulips at the Keukenhof Gardens in the Netherlands have been named after whom? No prizes for guessing …It’s Aishwarya Rai.
- Before the film Mohabbatein got released, the role of Aishwarya Rai was decided to be in the form of ‘guest appearance’. Luck had something else in mind. It is after the film got released that due to her popularity status in the film, the filmmakers decided to make her character/role in the film ‘regular’.
- KJo (Karan Johar) had approached Aishwarya for doing the role of Tina in the film Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (played by Rani Mukherjee). Since Ash’s dates were already blocked for the film Jeans, she had to refuse KJo’s offer. Some loose, some gain!
- When Aishwarya Rai won the Miss World competition, the host for the evening Richard Steinmetz asked her out. She agreed, is what you must be wondering. No, she didn’t, and politely declined.
- Guess who is the favourite male co-star of Aishwarya Rai? It’s the South Indian star Rajinikanth. According to her, working with him is her best experience ever.
- This one is the best! Apparently Aishwarya Rai was the first Indian to ever visit the Oprah Winfrey show.
- Ash has a battery of servants at her house at her command and disposal. But she likes to cook for her hubby Abhishek. Such is the joy she gets in cooking for Abhi.
- What is the secret of Ash’s beauty? In addition to not wearing makeup and lotion, she dislikes taking a lot of food, and prefers to nibble at fruits and vegetables after lunch.
- Aishwarya Rai’s pet interest is probably collecting any news articles written on her. Does that mean she has a home or a sanctuary dedicated to collecting this publication?
