Against the backdrop of crumbling marriages in Bollywood, actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan feels that it’s unfair to limit and judge relationships. “What happens in society is each to his own,” she said. “What would be fair and respectful is belief in people to allow them to live their lives and finding strength in choices they make,” the actress said in response to a query on effects of showbiz on marital life.

 

 

Aishwarya was speaking at the launch of a new product from L’Oréal Paris — Kajal Magique — here Dec. 19. Recently, Hrithik Roshan and his wife of 13 years, Sussanne, decided to separate. Also, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap  and actress wife Kalki Koechlin are taking time off from their marriage. For the actress, her mother and daughter Aaradhya’s eyes are beautiful. “Eyes are windows to the soul,” she said. Aishwarya thinks being Indian is being beautiful. “We are rooted, consider values in the highest esteem, we are simple people. We are very hardworking and we know to retain respect, love and commitment, tradition. Being Indian is being beautiful.” On the topic of actors opting go under the knife, she said, “For me it is all natural ... thank you parents and God.”
