Welcome to the World of Aishwarya Rai. One of the most beautiful women in the world, she is every man's fantasy come alive. Still she is a down to earth person, as beautiful inside as her gorgeous outer self. Lets get to know Ash better, find out what she holds close to her heart, and get an insight into the life of this marvelous woman who has the world at her feet.

Much before Aishwarya was crowned Miss World in 1994, she was already a familiar face in most Indian households - as Aamir Khan's stunning new neighbour in a Pepsi commercial, and in countless advertisement campaigns. With those dreamy grey-green eyes, that sexy pout and flat stomach, Aishwarya Rai never really had to ever look for work in the ad world.

Aishwarya did her schooling at Arya Vidya Mandir, Santacruz. Academically, she did very well and earned her position as the head girl of her school. Ash chose the science stream while at DG Ruparel College, her favorite subject being Zoology. She did her parents proud by securing 90% in PCB. She wanted to do medicine, but circumstances didn't let her. Instead she chose Architecture and passed the interview at Raheja College with flying colors. By this time, Aishwarya had started getting modelling assignments. She then decided to take a break from architecture and concentrate on modelling.

She was crowned Miss Femina World and went on to win the Miss world title at Sun City in 1994. Ash then joined the Bollywood film industry and is currently working under many prestigious banners.

Aishwarya means to be rich in values, in traits, in whatever that makes you what you are. And that is something we all agree about the ravishing lady.
