laxmi, i never said the lady is not beautifull, all i said is she is not that beautifull like the media talks and some people talks about her.
dont get personal. is she the slimest lady that you guys ever seen in india, come on

when she got invitation to a talk show in new york by David Letterman , (a famous talk show host) while the interview she got overwhelmed by something. she did not answer the guy straight, she thought she was too cute. this guy asked 2 or 3 quistion to her and she dint answered right . she must have thought that every audience was hypnotized by her beauty or something. i was excited to see the show, as an indian living in america i was glad to see an indian face in american antional Television channel, but she turned me down.

I think so too.......IMHO, she might look beautiful to the world by Western standards but definitely not entirely so by Indian standards.......she hasn't got the kind of physique tat Indian women r known to hav......shez even dyed her hair brown to boot!
IMHO again, the B'wood actresses of yore were far more graceful, generating more native beauty than her.....!

[Bridgester]

Hi guys ,

I think you all are going overbowled with aishwarya talks
Well accepted she may not be beautiful as per your standards, but I think as Indians we need to give her due weightage to her crown.

She features in Madame tussauds too after Amitabh to get this honour..This is a great achievement to India..

Ofcourse recently with her involvement with salman , she is seen very low in our eyes , but thats a part of life..Every other actors like Big B have also gone through the same ..

She is beautiful in her own way, Lets all accept that..

Lets not get into this nonsensical talks...
I think Thiru should close this thread...bec the topic is going haywire..

Note: Pls spell her name correctly ..IT is AISHWARYA RAI 8)

Um....when was tat? I thot Hollywood women as well the average western women were always found to be slim??
And abt China, well they r skinny (slim isn't the word! ).....even today!

Even in ancient India, it seems like thinner people were considered more beautiful. If you look at painting or statues of Indian goddesses that are thousands of years old, you will notice that they are all slim.

Um sorry but a bit of confusion again here ......from wat I've seen, from paintings (old as well as latest) of goddesses or evn sculptures of ne Indian women, nearly all of them r shown buxom rather than slim.......tats y even actresses in older films were buxom......

I personally prefer slimmer(not too slim) people too. I can't stand some of the actresses in Telugu films who try to look "buxom" because they overdo it and end up looking like they are overweight or fat.

Um....which Tel. actresses do u mean? From wat I see, even most of them today r slimmish......twas only the old actresses who were buxom.......
Hmm, i think what i consider buxom and what you consider buxom are two different things(i was thinking buxom meant something which is near fat). O well, i agree with whatever you said earleir then about Indians prefering buxom women in the past. As for hte CHinese and Europeans, based on some old Chinese and German books i have read, people preffered buxom women. I have no idea what people in America preffered a long time ago.

Anna Hyderabadi, to look beautiful by Indian standards means its not just her face tat looks beautiful.......and ok, as u say, even dyeing the hair wudn't entirely make so much diff.......but the thing is, her physique has to be the typical Indian woman's type (for fear of sounding derogatory/provocative I won't say 'shape' or 'figure' )......if u din't get m'point, take a look at the various generations of B'wood as well as South actresses from the 1960s/70s onwards.....for eg. Sharmila Tagore, Hema Malini, Vyjayantimala etc. (in South, Vanisree, Jaya Prada in her heydays & also a no. of actresses I can't recall the names of).........they all seem to hav one thing in common- not just their faces but also their buxom physiques, which was the natural Indian beauty tat was expected in a typical Indian woman......u cud find it in them by jus looking at them once.......!
Compare these good ol' ones w/ many of today's Indian actresses & u find tat certain sumthing lacking in the latter, who r obsessed w/ maintaining 'slim n trim' figures tat r far more bound to appeal to the Westerners (altho even today's Indians r welcoming this as part & parcel of the Western culture tat they r expertly copying! )
I personally don't think tat Aish cud be called terribly attractive by Indian standards w/ her too-slim physique tat looks out-of-place for an Indian woman even when she's clad in a Saree (the best way to judge a woman's personality by 'Indian' standards! )
She might hav a beautiful face......but again, tats diff. to judge considering tat even tat looks much too cosmetically hyped-up to match Western standards!
And I might add tat looking attractive in a seductive or 'hot' way is again sumthing of Western standards, not Indian!

These days, most Indians prefer slim women. Things change over time. At one point, people from China to England considered buxom people to be beautiful. TOday, slimmer people are considered beautiful almsot everywhere, including India. Even in ancient India, it seems like thinner people were considered more beautiful. If you look at painting or statues of Indian goddesses that are thousands of years old, you will notice that they are all slim. I personally prefer slimmer(not too slim) people too. I can't stand some of the actresses in Telugu films who try to look "buxom" because they overdo it and end up looking like they are overweight or fat.

[Freefspruptpx]

In American eyes, people like Pamela Anderson and Jessica Simpson are considered beautiful(people who openly show their bodies).

I agree w/ u atleast on this count!
Unftly even in India, this is the trend now........women like Mallika S***awat et al r given more regard by our junta the more they bare......today the standard definition of a 'real' gal/woman is one who looks 'hot' or 'sexy'.........

[GrileVege]

LS:
You are really caught up in the 1960s & 1970s arent you ..

Hmm......well, I guess u wudn't be the only person to've figured tat out.......
Yes, am very much into the '60s & '70s!.......I really found it a treat to participate in tat thread abt life in the '60s & '70s........& at the same time to be honest, was envious of most of the ppl. who were talkin abt living in those times.......inc. u, who talked abt the days w/ ur parents' Standard Herald (my fav. car- u shud now know wat my 'Stan Her' ID means ....but thinkin of changing it now.....)
I also like the '80s altho don't find it tat intriguing as I was very much there then so I know reasonably well wat it was like........

You sure seem to like a lot of things from that era ! Um.......things only?? Here I said I like actresses (= Women) of tat era.....they aren't "things" r they??

[JeffStewart]

What do you guys mean by Indian standards? It is not only westerners that think Aishwarya is beautiful. Millions of Indians adore her. Right now, i can't think of any mainstream bollywood actress(Aishwarya Rai, Kareena Kapoor, Manisha Koirala, Dia Mirza, Keerti Reddy, Preeti Zinta, Priyanka Chopra, Amrita Rao, etc...non-mainstream actresses are people like Mallika Sherawat, Kashmira Shah, Payal Rohatgi and all the others who act in sex-themed films) that is not good looking. As for hair dying, almost every actress in every film industry has done it at least once...it is jsut a new trend. I'm not saying Aishwarya is the most beautiful, but you have to admit, she is very beautiful. In the end, tehre is not way to truly determine who is the most beautfil. It all depends on each persons opinion.

just besause she won an international award for beauty
there is lots of other ladies who is much more beautiful than asihvarya rai.
she is not much known by american audience, she had a recent hollywood film, but this film was made by an indian director and producer , it was not a hit at all in america. also the film review board said she is not very beautiful compared to the other women ( co star)
in the film. the name of the movie is: BRIDE AND PREJUDICE.
