Aishwarya Rai in Hum Kisise Kam Nahin: Looking Gorgeous in a Terrible Film

Aishwarya Rai in Hum Kisise Kam Nahin: Looking Gorgeous in a Terrible Film - this could be a sub category in the career of Ash. Be it Aur Pyar Ho Gaya, Umrao Jaan, Hum Kisise Kam Nahin, Mistress of Spices or Jeans, she's looked staggeringly beautiful in essentially awful films. The learning curve for the model turned superstar has been a bumpy road.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, 34. in Sarkar Raj (2008). 

A confident performance by the beautiful actress, one of the few that featured a mostly family cast led by Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek and by then married Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan. 

Everyone performed well, even under the shadow of the mighty Big B.

Flawless Face: Aishwarya Rai

One of the earlier shoots with Aishwarya Rai. So flawless was (is!) her face, the photographer zoomed in - waaaaaaaaaay in - to capture that chiseled face, her mesmerising eyes, the pulchritude of her pout... Styled by Neeta Lulla, rockin' some 90s fashion. As only Ash can.

Perfection: Aishwarya Rai

Oh the way she looks... 

And the way she looks at him.

A candid pap' shot of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan as she catches up with her husband, co-actor Abhishek Bachchan. 

As the showstopper for Manish Malhotra's bridal catwalk presentation, Rai looked... ravishing. As expected.
