'Ash seen on TV': Aishwarya Rai on David Letterman's Late Night Show!

The beauteous Aishwarya Rai, former Miss World and current Bollywood star appeared on David Letterman's Late Night Show yesterday.

Popularly referred to as 'Ash,' Aishwarya is often billed as the "world's most beautiful woman."

Be that as it may, she certainly comes across as strong and savvy---and last night, as smart as a whip with the normally unflappable David Letterman.

It was hard to discern if David was a little flustered by her sang-foid but he definitely seemed pleasantly rattled just for one bit from this brilliant retort by Ash:


Dave: "So you live with your parents...? Is it common for grown up children to live with their parents in India...?"

Ash: " Yes, I live with my parents. It is common in India...Well, one does not have to take an appointment to see one's parent in India!"

Dave (looking around, emabarrassed-like, smiling sheepishly almost) " We learnt something tonight."


Not much of a Bollywood follower myself, still I have had the pleasure of seeing her in two marvellous and very accomplished roles, in the movies:
Devdas and Chokher Bali.

Highly recommended.
