OUTFIT: ANNA SINGH - THE DESIGN STUDIO
Before her hits, her second year in Bollywood, despite a series of flops, Aishwarya Rai was gracing cover after cover - as she sold magazines like no one else. Her success was inevitable - her roster of producers and directors wer second to none - and oh my she made the industry gilrs insecure.
And, the power she had to reject Sooraj Barjatya... which sounds like a scandalous headline, but it wasn't. Her dates and diary was full - and btw, wow, she dodged a bullet. Kareena Kapoor went on to do the film - the infamous Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon. Which was not only the worst film in the director's career, but the biggest flop of the year, if not decade.
