Happy Birthday, Aishwarya Rai!

Fifteen years after she won the Miss World beauty pageant, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan continues to be the most celebrated Bollywood brand ever. Aishwarya enters her 37th birthday today, and if astrologers are to be believed, she is in for a good time in the coming days.

Here’s the latest interview she gave to the media:

# How’s it feel to be the most beautiful face in Bollywood 15 years after you won your crown?

I’m not very good at handling compliments but I accept it with grace. I’m grateful to God, my audiences and my filmmakers – be it Mani Ratnam (Iruvar, Guru, Raavan), Sanjay Leela Bhansali (Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, Devdas, Guzaarish), Mansoor Khan (Josh), Ashutosh Gowarikar (Jodhaa Akbar), Ram Gopal Varma (Sarkar Raj), Raj Kumar Santoshi (Khakee), Aditya Chopra (Mohabbatein, Dhoom 2) and others who never used just my beauty as the fulcrum. Instead, they kept the beauty and the aesthetics going at the same time in each of the film characters I played.

# Life has come a full circle. Even after marriage, you still have the best makers backing you.

These are the same filmmakers I have worked with in the beginning of my career. I got married in the middle of shooting Jodhaa Akbar and when I reported back on his set, Ashu told me that nothing has changed. It just meant so much more hard work for me because when I come to the work front, I don’t want anyone to think of me as being any less professional than I was when I was single. It was important for me to strike the right balance between home and work. All the film-makers I’m working with are super passionate about their work. Thanks to them, I still feel the same adrenaline rush that I always feel when I’m on set.

# Earlier this year, you were awarded the Padma Shri.

It has been a memorable year, every other month there has been some honor. I have much to thank God for.

# Abhishek Bachchan and you have tickled audiences with that recent soap commercial.

It is ten years of my association with the brand. So they suggested that it would be nice to bring Abhishek on board. Honestly, how time flies!

# Amitabh Bachchan recently said that it is for you and Abhishek to make him a grandpa.

Well, if you ask him a question like that, what can he say? It is an apt answer for a parent to give. When I was on the Oprah Winfrey Show, I told her that every time there is even a bump, it is assumed that I’m with child. Being pregnant is not something one can conceal. When I am pregnant, the world will know.

Aamir Khan is Pucca Idiott on Facebook!

Ravi — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 18:10:45 +0000

Allaying fears of an online identity theft, Aamir Khan has finally confessed that it is indeed he who was masquerading as Pucca Idiott on the social networking site, Facebook.

Late last night, Aamir wrote on his wall, “Ok guys, I give up. I guess its time to drop my defences. Yeh Star News wale bade kamzarf hain, mera bhanda phod diya, yaar. Not that I mind interacting with all of you, don’t get me wrong. But I have my blog at www.aamirkhan.com for just that.”

And more, “Confession over. Relief…” Aamir also bares his soul, frank as ever, “Here, on Facebook, I was trying to be anonymous so that anyone I interact with treats me like a normal guy. Also I get to know what you folks are really thinking and feeling. Sometimes you might not share everything with me, or might not be totally frank with me, if you know who I am.”

He further remarked that it felt good to chat up with his Facebook friends and also added some photos of wife Kiran Rao and him on a holiday in Chamonix, as proof for the skeptics.

*Update: Aamir Khan confirmed his Facebook identity.
