Five times AISHWARYA RAI proved she is the QUEEN of traditionals

Speak of Paro and an image of Aishwarya with this diya pops in mind. Aishwarya carried the heavy jewellaries and sarees of Paro with utmost grace and proved that nobody could carry ethinc better than her. A lesser known fact about this role is that Aishwarya’s ears started to bleed during the shoot of song ‘Dola Re Dola’ due to the heavy earrings she was wearing, but she continued with the dance and told about it only after the shoot.

Aishwarya was undoubtedly the perfect choice for J.P. Dutta's adaption of the Urdu novel "Umrao Jan Ada" by Mirza Haadi Ruswa. Only she could portray the beauty of Umraao Jaan and recreate the magic after the evergreen actress Rekha . Image: Instagram

Nobody can forget the bubbly Nandini of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. Aishwarya looks stunningly beautiful all through the movie. Be it the traditional attires of Nandini before marriage or the sarees that she draped in the later part of the movie, Aish totally slays it. Image: Instagram

A year aftter Guru , Aishwarya was back on screen laden with ornaments as the legendary character of Jodha Bai. The wedding set that she wore weighed three and a half kilograms but Aishwarya pulled off the act without any difficulty. Like a boss! Hats off to the ever charming actress who turned 44 today.

With her silent grace in Guru, Aishwarya strongly marked her presence in the film, despite the strong character of protagonist Abhishek Bachchan. And speaking of her look, she once again proves that she can pull off any traditional avatar with great ease. Image: Instagram
