Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Presents Pritish Nandy's Book 'Again'
Lonesong Street and A Stranger Called I author Pritish Nandy presented his new book Again at Mumbai's Crossword Thursday night and longtime fan and friend Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was there to support the journalist and poet.
And he needs it! The author of Again told reporters that if people don't read poetry it's because publishers aren't doing their job! "You cannot judge a reader. It is the writer and publisher's job to persuade the reader to take to reading. If your book is not being read, you better chase or change the publisher," he told PTI.
"I think everyone should read and write poetry. Poetry is living. It is discovering yourself. If you have not written poetry, it means you have not discovered yourself. We need to go beyond the boundaries of academia. Poetry should attempt to discover a connect with the people. It should be fun and should not be just for examination purpose as done in schools," he added.
Ash went on to read excerpts from the book and the evening was an instant success! But success is not something Pritish Nandy looks for, he is happy letting it come to him naturally, if at all. "I do not chase success. I chase excellence in whatever I do, be it writing, making movies or anything else. I have never followed success. Success follows me. If you chase Saraswati, Laxmi comes along," Mr. Nandy told PTI.
And he means it; it's been about 20 years since Pritish Nandy has written poetry so he does takes his time! "It was only because of constant nudging of noted poet Gulzaar that I have taken to poetry again," he said.
So check out our pics of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan presenting Pritish Nandy's new book Again at Mumbai's Crossword Thursday night and share your thoughts; would you listen to Ash read poetry?

aish Rai is the one with the sexiest eyes
WHEN BEAUTY COMBINES WITH BRAIN
Aishwarya Rai, usually dubbed as "The most beautiful woman in the world" appeared on a recent Oprah Winfrey Show. Oprah, known to many as "the most powerful women in the world" was well handled by Aish.
When asked why people do not see sex in her movies; not even a kiss, Aishwarya replied:
"I come from the land of the Kama Sutra. So we obviously do have a normal, healthy sex life. [Kissing] is a more private expression of emotions. So I guess art imitates life and that kind of comes across in our cinema as well."
On another answer she said:
"Back home, you're a loser if you say, 'Mom, I'm out of here'. In India it's more about the family, about living together, about remaining connected, and that's probably the most beautiful special thing about it."
That makes Aishwarya even more beautiful. In her words:
Aishwarya Rai in sari stuns everyone at Cannes
After a long time, the Bollywood beauty Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was seen in a traditional Indian outfit at the 63 annual Cannes Film Festival.
Aishwariya Rai mesmerised everyone at the red carpet as she walked in Indian outfit with her husband Abhishek Bachchan during the premiere of 'Outrage'.
Besides Abhishek, Aishwarya was also accompanied by her mother Vrinda Rai and team of 'Raavan'.
Aish's outfit switch
From Armani, Elie Saab and Gucci designer outfits, Aish made a switch over to Indian outfit designed by Sabyasachi Mukherjee at the sixth day of Cannes Film Festival, the most prestigious and world's oldest film festival.
Aishwarya Rai was usually seen in western outfits more due to the rules of her brand L'Oreal. As per the rules, she must present herself in western outfit but this time she also showed her Indian side.
The sari was studded with stone and had a low neck blouse and on that she wore less of jewelry.
"The look was glamourised and it brought back memories of Ash in the film Guru. I also loved the make-up,” Ritu Kumar told NDTV.
On May 23, 2002, Aishwariya Rai was seen in a sari at Cannes Film Festival first at the premiere of 'Devdas' that fascinated everyone at the red carpet.
But ever since the 2003 outfit disaster, when her green sari and chappals at the 'Dogville' premiere were criticized even by the unfashionable, the brand L'Oreal made sure that she wears designer outfits.
Deepika Padukone still in race
Besides Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Deepika Padukone also preferred Indian wear. She wore an off-white sari designed by Rohit Bal. She said that she finds sari very Indian and sensuous.
As per Oneindia, Deepika said, “There’s so much to Cannes besides the festival. In fact, the first time when I came to Cannes in 2002 I was here not for the Festival but as a tourist.
"I remember I had stood outside the venue of the Cannes film festival and taken pictures. I had promised myself that next time I’d be back as part of the Festival…and here I am.”

Aishwarya Rai
Aishwarya Rai
Aishwarya Rai tries them all, pinks, reds, browns and nudes and looks good in any shade she wears.
Kiss-Meter: She famously proclaimed “we don’t kiss in hindi films” in her interviews to the international media but eventually locked lips with ‘good friend’ Vivek Oberoi in ‘ Kyun! Ho
Gaya Na’, Prosenjit Chaterjee in ‘ Chokher Bali ‘, Sanjay Dutt in ‘ Shabd ’ and most sensuously with Hrithik Roshan in ‘ Dhoom 2

Aishwarya Rai, Abhishek take their romance to Istanbul

May 07, 2010, (Sawf News) - After a romantic two weeks in Greece, Abhishek Bachchan and wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will be jetting off to Istanbul, making the best use of Aishwarya's time off from work.
Aishwarya, who recently wound up filming for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Guzaarish opposite Hrithik Roshan, had accompanied Abhishek to Greece for the filming of Game. Directed by Abhiney Deo, The thriller film additionally features Anupam Kher, Boman Irani and Kangana Ranaut.
Abhishek and Aishwarya returned to Mumbai for a day to catch up with their family prompting a delighted Amitabh Bachchan to blog on Friday, May 7, 2010
"Abhishek and Bahu Rani came back this morning and it was a joy to see them after such a long gap. But the joy is limited. Tomorrow they go off again to some more exotic lands for their work. But when they are with us, it is fun to catch up on their talk and to inform them of ours.
Aishwarya Rai hubby Dev, Vikram in RAAVAN is poetic
Even the look of Vikram in the Hindi version will be different from the traditional bollywood heroes, and this is the reason it is being kept under wraps, while Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai’s images in ‘Raavan’ are being aggressively publicized. Sources close to production house say that Vikram wears a short cut hair and a moustache for the role.
However, his look in the Tamil version called ‘Raavanan’ is entirely different and induces fear. The strange thing about the whole exercise is that Vikram, who plays two different roles in the Tamil and Hindi versions of the film, shot for them simultaneously at the same venues.
Of course, the talented actor worked extra hard for it and after shooting for the Hindi version would rehearse his lines and act for the Tamil version during nights to get it perfect. As Mani Ratnam is famous for being a hard task master, nothing short of perfection would have worked with him.
Abhishek Bachchan had also been offered to play the role of Dev (which Vikram plays in Hindi) in the Tamil version of ‘Raavan’ by director Mani Ratnam, but the handsome actor was not confident of enacting the role properly and hence refused the offer.
In fact, Abhishek Bachchan told Mani Rathnam that he found emoting in Hindi easier than in Tamil or any other language in which he was not comfortable. However, Aishwarya Rai, his real life wife, did not have any such problem and hence plays the character of Sita in both Tamil and Hindi versions of the film.
Aishwarya Rai The Time magazine top of the top list!
It has been repeatedly seen that, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has been adjudged as the top elitist persona of the Indian film industry
This time it is no exception that the star has been included in Time Magazines list of the top 100 personalities of the year.
The other qualifying names for the list are Condoleezza Rice, Stella Mc Cartney, Sarah Pulin, Nora Roberts and the like.
The Indian cine star Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, is a truly an International figure, be it in her appearance at the greatest chat show of TV ever, that is the Oprah Winfrey show, or her International film projects like ‘Pride and Prejudice’2004, ‘Mistress of Spices’,2005,’The Last Legion’,2007, ‘Pink Panther 2’,2009.
The actress, who had started as a model and then winning the Miss India title, has indeed traveled a long way, and according to close sources, she had only come into the industry for getting a great foothold in the film industry. However, as she took each step, her firm position got firmer, and she climbed each step with care and calculation.
Ash is known to push herself further and further to achieve goals that require a lot of dedication and hard work. Today, if she has reached that top position, the credit goes to her pure hard work and passion for her profession!
