Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's look at Filmfare Awards Night: The first sighting of Sabyasachi Mukherjee

Aishwarya Rai in 2006. This was her look in Mani Ratnam's Guru. 

It was the first time I remember Ash wearing 'that new designer' Sabyasachi - who had done all her looks in the film. 

Sadly, as gorgeous as these pictures are - a fake AI iteration 

Below clip you can see what Ash really looked like - flawless at Filmfare.

Bless stylist Mohit Rai for... trying.
