Yes, not too many acknowledge and appreciate the hardwork others put in for them. But then, that's why Aishwarya is so special. She's a sweet child. We share a love between us like a mother and a child do. Aishwarya is a very well brought-up child. She's very normal, very well-behaved. She respects her profession, she's never late on the sets. She never misbehave either. Once she reports for shooting, she doesn't leave until the day's work is accomplished. It goes to show that she is very reliable.
- Saroj Khan (chreographer)
I really like the way Aishwarya is conducting herself in this industry. She has not allowed herself to get caught up in squabbling or name calling. - Juhi Chawla (actress)
Albela is a fun film. Everybody I know has been raving about the promos. Miss World and me! Meri toh Ash (Aish) hain! - Govinda (actor)
Of course I'd love to do a film with her. Who in is his right mind wouldn't? - Aftab Shivdasani (actor)
I'm pretty friendly to both Madhuri and Ash. And I think they are very good human beings. - Mamta Kulkarni (Eye Bank Association of India)
When you have eye sores like me up there on the screen, then you need some balm for your eyes too, like Aishwarya and Sushmita. - Ashish Vidyarthi (actor)
Aishwarya has had Subhash Ghai, Sanjay Bhansali to direct her. She's hot right now. But that peak happened to me in 1996.
- Karisma Kapoor (actress)
As for me, a film with Aishwarya Rai and Tabu was heaven-sent. I agreed right away. - Ajith Kumar (actor, costar in Kandukondain Kandukondain)
Recently Sush, Ash and I did a photo shoot together and we were extremely cordial with each other. Nobody was clawing each other's eyes out, there was no frigid coldness in the air, nothing of the sort. We may not be the best of friends, we may not look at things the way the other does, but we were as civil and civilised as any other threesome of girls. Believe it or not! - Diana Hayden (ex-miss world)
I'm proud of her. I'm proud to be associated with her. My name linked with hers? It's a privilege. What more can any man ask for? - Salman Khan (actor)
Technique-wise, no one can touch her, but she needs to have more fun, put in a little more soul. - Farah Khan (chreographer)
Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Taal made Aishwarya a nation-wide craze. Most of the time even Sush, Ash and I talk shop. It would be nice to get together socially. - Namrata Shirodkar (actress, ex-Miss India)
She wants the best and if the best is in short supply, she is willing to wait. And with this attitude like that, she has to go places. - Anil Kapoor (actor)
What can I say, we have worked together earlier as models. It's strange but I'm facing her everyday on the sets and then one fine day, I'm watching her in Devdas. And I was blown, slapped in the face. Devdas speaks volumes of her as an actress. I can imagine how amazed a common man must be when he watches Ash in Devdas. Of course, the credit goes to her director and everyone else as well, but definitely to her, as I've never experienced being awestruck by someone's performance so much. And she's a thorough professional who knows what she's doing. I've had a blast shooting with her. - Arjun Rampal (actor)
Aishwarya Rai is the defination of 'perfect'! They (her daughter) would rather watch Aishwarya Rai, Aamir Khan and Saif Ali Khan than anyone else! - Sharmila Tagore (actress)
As for Aishwarya Rai, Sanjay Bhansali has given her wings. There’s so many dimensions to her performance. I didn’t think of Madhubala or any other actress while watching Aishwarya in Devdas. I could only see her in every scene. - Raakhee (actress)
I think it's Aishwarya Rai, who unfortunately, I have never met. I am paying her a big compliment when I say this, but I think, physically, she in one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. I am an ardent fan of hers. She is the most beautifully perfect woman I have ever laid my eyes upon. I think it's a little unfair that God did this to the rest of the women! - Zayed Khan (actor)
I am flabbergasted by her historic talents. I never expected so much acting ability from a beauty queen. She dazzles as a danseuse. In Kandukondain Kandukondain, she scored easy successes both in acting and dancing. Her potentials are great. Her grandeur is matchless. Her prowess is peerless. How eager am I to see her in person, face to face. - Jayaseel (actress)
A dance competition with Madhuri Dixit is like a fight against Mike Tyson. But after watching Devdas, for the first time I felt that someone was actually better than Madhuri. It was Aishwarya Rai who took the cake in Devdas. And she was fabulous even in the Dola Re song. - Chunky Pandey (actor)
Aishwarya Rai is very beautiful but, I am very handsome too. - Mammoothy (actor)
I just love Aishwarya Rai. She is like a little doll, so absolutely gorgeous! I feel it is terrible what has happened with Salman, and the media has been so mean to her about it. - Rohit Bal (fashion designer)
She knows she is beautiful but she wants to be accepted as a person first. I've seen her softer sideÑmaternal, sisterly. She is all woman, a very caring person. The other day we were talking about old times. I didn't forget the smallest, most intimate and innocuous moments. Neither had she. Even if Ash and I are in a crowded room, we'll find each other. It's wonderful! I was never smitten by her romantically but I did want her deeply as a friend. - Hemant Trevedi (fashion designer)
When Aishwarya came to Madras to act in Iruvar, I was not stunned by her beauty, but her modesty and simplicity. Quite contrary to what is believed of her, she is not only nice but also very, very sweet. The biggest joke was when she asked my advice on how to maintain a good, clear skin. I was aghast. So, I told her. Imagine I got to advise Miss World on how to keep herself beautiful in the face of such grueling conditions. Aishwarya may look soft and quiet, but has a way of gentle teasing. I have rarely seen women, especially beautiful women complementing another. But Ash is not like that. I used to read the dialogues and she would tease me saying, "When you read, your eyes are acting." - Suhasini Rathnam
She's a stunning beauty who's lucky to have got fabulous roles in films made by Subhash Ghai (Taal) and Sanjay Leela Bhansali (Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam). I hope the same happens to me some day. - Yukta Mookhey (actress)
Too much is being made of my obsession for Aishwarya Rai. I did enjoy working with her in Jeans. It's also true that she was my first choice for Indian and Mudhalvan... but she couldn't manage the required dates. But I'm certainly not obsessed with Aishwarya Rai. I read an item somewhere which said I'd named my daughter Aishwarya because of my liking for Ms World -- Aishwarya Rai. That's not true. My daughter was born long before the actress Aishwarya came into my movies. - Shankar (director)
I think Pooja Batra, Aishwarya, are very good actresses. Look at Aishwarya, people didn't think she could act, and now look at her now post - Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. She is the most happening actress around. - Netra Raghuraman (actress)
She's my senior but she's been wonderful and a real pleasure to work with. She's professional, talented, warm and co-operative. She's gone out of her way to help me on the sets. - Abhishek Bachchan (actor)
She's a grown up girl, a successful career woman. - Salim Khan (actor)
