It’s the 1st of November, which means only one thing for most Bollywood fans, it’s Aishwarya Rai Bachchan‘s birthday. And people still can’t believe that this gorgeous beauty stepped on her 48th year already. Well, why would they when she still looks more stunning than many youths in their 20s’.
Though Aishwarya came into the spotlight in front of the world in 1994, after becoming one of the few proud Indians to be crowned with the title of MISS WORLD, her journey on the screen had also started not too long after with a PEPSI commercial. Her brief appearance and beauty still resonate in our hearts from time to time.
In the year 1997, she made her debut on the silver screen with a Tamil Movie Iruvar and a Hindi movie Aur Pyaar Hoe Gaya opposite Bobby Deol. Even if these movies didn’t help her grow her career, they still at least brought her to the right people’s notice. Then What Started as a screening for Raja Hindustani ended up with her bagging the role of Nandini in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and the award for best actress in Filmfare. And so Started the upward trajectory of her career.
With Films that are critically acclaimed like Taal, Devdas, Chokher Bali, and commercially successful movies like Dhoom 2, Guru, and Jodhaa Akbar under her belt, she became an unstoppable force in Bollywood. And it was this driving force that also led her to star in many Hollywood movies as well. Pride and Prejudice, The Mistress of Spices, and The Pink Panther 2 are just to name a few. At the time when the roads to film industries are completely different, she managed to coexist in two.
Apart from establishing herself as an actress who can mold herself perfectly into any character that she comes across, Aishwarya is also a global icon of beauty and fashion. Anyone who was fortunate enough to witness her presence will never be able to forget the power of her aura. Any red carpet event she has attended, she exudes the same confidence and style that she did on the stage of Miss World 1994.
What more can be said about this age-defying critically acclaimed actress that hasn’t been said yet. Her entity doesn’t need to be subjected to any controversy or news to stay relevant on social media and her achievements need no justification. All we can do is sit back and be mesmerized by her, hopefully for many more years to come. Wishing Aishwarya Rai Bachchan a very Happy Birthday.
