Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has been addressing India on the worldwide front for quite a while. She is one of the most well-known Indian countenances in the West. She additionally once graced the famous talk show led by Oprah Winfrey where she busted the prejudices about India that the West had.
At the show, when Aishwarya was asked if kissing is normal in India, she said, “It’s not really a familiar sight. People kiss, but it doesn’t happen around the street corner. It’s a more private expression of emotion, so I guess art imitates life and that comes across in our cinema.”
When Oprah told Aishwarya that in America parents would kick out their 30-year-olds, Aishwarya said, “In India it’s more about the family, about living together and remaining connected, and that’s probably the most special thing.”
Speaking on arranged marriages, she said, “Arranged marriages in urban India would be like a global dating service where the families study each other’s backgrounds, and they bring couple together, and they get engaged and they date and if it works they get along wit the alliance, and if it doesn’t work they fall out,” As stated in HT.
