She actually used to be quite skinny, especially when she first started acting around like 1997, but she was never like way too skinny. I'm also glad she has some meat on her bones, but I personally feel she should start working out at least to tone up her body and maybe lose a few pounds..mostly i just think she needs to tone up.

I don't see what's wrong with her, so what that she has some meat on her body!? That proves that you don't have to be stick thin like all of the Hollywood stars! They don't eat, just to look gorgeous(?
woot: and be succesfull! but Ashwarya eats and looks beautiful AND is as the mather of fact richer than most of the celebs from Hollywood!!!!!! She looks gorgeous! I like the way she looks! 
I mean why should she look like a anorexic person?! Like Nicole, i am sorry to say that, but Nicole Ritchie looks too skinny and almost ana! I love what she wears...but you can wear the same clothes if you gain a little bit Nicole! Why should all the stars look the same? Quite boring! ....... ~*MischaBloom*~

Ash is just beautiful. I agree with you on the make-up, she doesn't need any whatsoever!

Is Ashwarya completely Indian? She has very Caucasian features....not that it matters but just curious.
I agree with everyone, with the right clothes and toned down makeup she would be perfect! (not that she isn't pretty darn close to perfection already) What movies has she been in?

Hello magazine profile:
"I am just an ordinary woman with ordinary concerns," says India's favourite daughter Aishwarya Rai. But in reality "Aishu", as she is known, has become much more than an ordinary woman. Indeed many would argue she's also more than an ordinary star, because international fame has made her an unofficial ambassador for her home country's burgeoning film industry.
The first thing people notice about her is, almost invariably, her flawless good looks. But the actress has always been anxious to prove she is more than just a pretty face, and this is reflected in the complex, challenging roles she takes on.
The convoluted romance Jeans – in which she plays twins Madhumitha and Vaishnavi – was a huge hit in India. And her performance in the 1999 romance Hum Dil De Chukie Sanam, garnered her a Filmfare Award for best actress. Further critical plaudits followed for her sensitive portrayal of a r*pe victim in the drama Hamara Dil Aapke Paas Hai.
Born into a middle class family in the southern state of Karnataka on Nov 1, 1973, Aishwarya was the daughter of a Merchant Navy officer. As a student she excelled, becoming head girl at her school before setting her sights on a career as an architect.
Life had other plans for the green-eyed scholar, however. When one of her professors who also freelanced as a photographer asked her to pose for him, the resulting pictures provoked a flood of interest from the modelling industry. And it wasn't long before Aishwarya was persuaded to take to the catwalk full-time.
Her subsequent rise through the ranks of the fashion world was nothing short of meteoric. A runner-up in the 1994 Miss India competition, she went on to win Miss World later that year. It was an advertisement for Pepsi, however, that made her a household name. The soft drink siren smiling from TV sets all over India seduced the nation, and offers of movie work came flooding in.
Ten years on she is not only Bollywood's biggest star, but also one of its most respected. Perhaps more significant than any award, at least in international terms, was her invitation to sit on the jury of the 2003 Cannes Film Festival. She joined Meg Ryan and director Steven Soderbergh on the prestigious panel, and became the first Indian actress to help judge the event.
The actress' life hasn't been all fairytale, however. Her relationship with fellow Bollywood star Salman Khan ended in 2002 and Aishu subsequently issued a statement claiming he cheated on her and beat her up. Despite the hard times, she remains philosophical: "I take every experience in life as a part of learning and growing," she says. "With time I feel, with growing conviction, that my life and its experiences are for a reason."
And when questioned about her status as Bollywood's unofficial ambassador, she modestly replies: "I haven't gone out looking for new horizons, but new opportunities have come to me. It would be disrespectful of me not to explore them."
The actress also takes the responsibilities that go with her position very seriously. During her year as Miss World, she worked tirelessly to promote peaceful causes. And ironically, it was a child in an orphanage, rather than a film critic, that gave her the complement she cherishes most. After meeting the glamorous star, the youngster calmly told her that her inner warmth outshone her physical beauty. "I was bowled over," admits Aishu.

To be honest - She is not my type AT ALL. I think she looks all made up ( too much make up..) and i dont like her face ( lips, nose, forehead...) i dont know, i just dont find her attractive... although some indian women look really pretty, but she looks alien-ish sometimes.
"traditional" beauty.
Looks passé to me. No youthness or anything modern here. As being india´s most succesfull actress you can expect.
Haven´t seen the movie, but she seems to be getting a lot of positive comments by just being darkish skinned. If any other actress had turned up on gown like that she would have been rocketed right down.
But market is LARGE and it´s good to have options, obviously. Not a high-fashion material, but many mainstream labels will just love her.
