Aishwarya Rai captivated everyone with her runway appearance at Paris Fashion Week, and it seems Alia Bhatt was no exception. Alia, who made her Paris runway debut, couldn't take her eyes off Aishwarya as they prepared backstage together.
Aishwarya Rai and Alia Bhatt at Paris Fashion Week
A behind-the-scenes photo of the two actresses Aishwarya Rai and Alia Bhatt, both brand ambassadors for L’Oréal, has gone viral. While Aishwarya has been a staple on the runway for the beauty brand for years, this marked Alia's first time. She became L’Oréal’s brand ambassador in September this year.
For her debut, Alia Bhatt dazzled in a silver bustier paired with a black jumpsuit. Her sleek, wet-look hairstyle and chunky silver earrings added to her striking appearance as she blew kisses to the audience while walking down the runway.
Meanwhile, runway veteran Aishwarya Rai turned heads in a stunning red gown with a dramatic trail that read, “We are worth it.” Complementing her iconic red lipstick, Aishwarya greeted the audience with a ‘namaste’ and blew kisses as well.
What Alia said about Aishwarya
In an interview with 'Allure' ahead of her Paris Fashion Week debut, Alia Bhatt named Aishwarya Rai as one of her biggest inspirations in Bollywood. She shared, "When it comes to learning or being inspired by someone who has embodied dance in the most beautiful way on screen, I can’t help but think of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. She was, and still is, absolutely mesmerizing."
Alia added, “She also gave me a lot of direction and insight. Whenever I had a song, I’d go to YouTube, search for 'Aishwarya Rai songs,' and watch them closely to study her expressions, her graceful transitions, and how she moves with such ease yet precision. And she’s just so beautiful to watch."
