Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has been in the industry for over two decades but still manages to make hearts flutter with just a public appearance. She is still one of the most sought-after actors in B-Town today and fans are longing to see her on the silver screen.

Aishwarya took a break from films after the birth of daughter Aaradhya and made a comeback of sorts with Sanjay Gupta's Jazbaa. Talking about being a working mother, Aishwarya told a leading publication, "When I got married, it was interesting to discover that everything was continuing as it were - script discussions and business meetings. I wanted to keep it going because it meant there was a change in our otherwise-conservative industry. Likewise, with motherhood, I worked from the beginning but it was on endorsements, charity work and business ideas."

She added, "I starred in my first film when Aaradhya was three. I never "stopped working"; I just wasn't on screen."

Aishwarya has inspired many, not only in India but also across the globe. When asked about her role model, Ash said, "This will sound like a line from a film but I'm just a regular girl... Abhishek's my husband and Aaradhya's my child. My mother is the only one I know inside out, so as a role model she’s the only I choose to name - and it's her values I'm imbibing consciously and subconsciously raising my daughter. I've never shared dream roles... because what if someone writes it for you? Then what? You'll have nothing to look forward to."
