I'm a huge fan of Aishwarya Rai. Not the actor or the model or some brand ambassador of big international brand, I like her as a person.

Let me tell you what I like about her as a person, since I don't know her personally. Aishwarya Rai is one of those few elites in India who has a huge reach out. Even if she sneezes, it becomes a news, not only in India but also around the world. When Oprah came to India, she went to her house to meet her. Overall the point that I'm trying to make is that she is pretty big personality. What makes her different from her other colleagues is that she never abused the platform that she has. Be it interviews, chat shows, events anywhere. I have never seen her ranting or calling names or just passing snide remarks. I still remember Rani going on and on about how Aishwarya messed up the friendship they had but Aishwaya stayed mum.

I have heard a lot of other actors doing the same for her but she never replied on a public platform. She had a very 'eventful' life, abusive boyfriend, affairs, rumors but she never came out in public to make a huge deal about it.

She was thrown out of movies for no fault of her. All of you know that she was a part of Chalte Chalte team but do you know Veer-Zaara was especially written for her. Remember Kareena making the point clear that 'Kal ho na ho' , 'Ram-Leela' etc was offered to her. Did you hear that from Aishwarya Rai?

No, she didn't make any public statement and she won't, why? Because Aishwarya Rai is a class apart. Such a classy women!
