Aishwarya Rai Bachchan birthday special: Then and now

As the gorgeous actor turns 38 today, we take a look at her onscreen transformation over the years

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is one of the most beautiful female actors in Bollywood. There’s a reason why she managed to bag Hollywood films while none of her contemporaries have been able to. When she won the Miss World contest in 1994, the entire country cheered. And each one of her fans continued to stand by her as she took her first steps in Bollywood. She is now longer just a gorgeous woman, but also an accomplished actor as well as a mother-to-be. As we wish her a happy thirty-eighth birthday, we go down memory lane and marvel at her onscreen makeovers.

Aishwarya Rai: from glam doll to yummy mummy!

    zindgi ka dusra naam hi kaid,
    aur maut ka reehai,
    isiliye har janamdin par,
    zindgi ka ek saal kam ho jane par,
    log nahi chukte h dene se ek dusre ko badhai.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO U
    SAB KI TRHA

    Hi Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

    Khushi Se Bite Har Din,
    Har Shuhani Raat Ho,

    Waho Phoolo Ki Barshat Ho,
    Wish You Happy Birthday!

      Your grammar makes your comment hard to understand but your negativity shines through. Aishwarya has done India and the world proud, and she is highly respected by her co-stars and directors. All actresses wear make-up but not all of them can be as successful as Aishwarya. Plus this slide show is just a nice way to go down memory lane as Aishwarya’s birthday nears, so let her fans enjoy it without your biting words and unnecessary comments.

      with make up or without make up AISHWARYA RAI BACHCHAN is the most beautiful Indian women on earth. Have you seen Hollywood actors without make ups? They look ugly even with make up.
      KOI SHAAAAAKKKKK…???

      HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASH JI
