It's Aishwarya Rai's birthday!
The last year, her 30th, has been one of her most eventful ones, with Julia Roberts calling her 'the most beautiful woman in the world' and her first English film Bride & Prejudice releasing internationally. Not to mention the honour of being the first Indian actress to be immortalised in wax at Madame Tussaud's.
Now, with a variety of eclectic roles coming up in world cinema as well as Bollywood, we're sure Ms Rai will have yet another busy, challenging year on her hands. And we wish her the best.
She celebrates her 31st birthday on Monday, November 1.
