Why Aishwarya Rai Decided to Put Her Career on Hold and Proved She’s More Than Just a Pretty Face

Aishwarya Rai turns 50 in 2023. The popular Indian actress who worked her way into Hollywood suddenly faced the harshest criticism when she became a mother. Yet she bravely overcame adversity and stayed true to herself. We are sure her story will inspire many women.

Aishwarya began modeling while still in college, and in 1994, she won the title of Miss World. Surely, filmmakers immediately noticed this charismatic beauty. The woman quickly became a movie star in India, and then in the Western part of the world too. The media even called Rai “the most beautiful woman in the world.”

1994. Aishwarya is 21 years old.

In 2006, the woman played opposite a popular Indian actor, Abhishek Bachchan. On the set, a spark of love flashed immediately between them, and in 2007, the lovers got married.

In 2010, the actress suddenly decided to abandon her career and took a 5-year-long sabbatical. In early 2011, everyone found out why — the couple was expecting a child. Given that Aishwarya was 38 years old at the time, the pregnancy was considered geriatric.

Many women in this situation would have preferred a C-section, but the actress chose a traditional birth and even refused to have anesthesia. According to one of her relatives, Rai wanted a normal delivery.

On November 16, beautiful Aardhya was born while Aishwarya was hit by a powerful wave of hatred. The photos of the former Miss World where she was 5 months postpartum caused a stir on social media.

Of course, there were those who defended the actress and said that people’s fixation on someone’s weight is disgusting. There were both ordinary social media users and famous fashion designers among them.

2012. Aishwarya is 39 years old.

It wasn’t easy for her to stay strong under social pressure. However, Aishwarya had always been known for living by her own rules and not paying attention to stereotypes. It was probably her integrity and positive outlook on life that helped her go through body shaming with dignity, and enjoy motherhood to the fullest.

When asked if she was depressed by the way society treated her, she confidently replied, “When I became a mother, it was the most beautiful feeling in the world. There were several hormonal changes within, but it didn’t change anything. There was never a point of self-doubt. I’m so happy in my own life with Aaradhya around and the positivity as well as clarity that I have in my head about myself. Nobody else is dictating or telling me how to be and what to do.”

At a comfortable pace, without trying to please fans or producers, Rai regained her former shape, and then began filming again. It took her 4 years.

In 2023, the Indian actress impressed everyone by a spectacular appearance in a Sophie Couture dress at the Cannes Film Festival. At the same event, she gave a short interview about how to feel comfortable in your own body and not to judge others and yourself.

“Don’t go around attaching your judgement on others who make their choices. I think that’s just the way it should be. It’s a free world: live and let live,” she said. “I think when people tend to do that, it probably stems from insecurity. If you’re comfortable in your skin, and you’re comfortable being you, you really wouldn’t even expend that energy in being judgmental. It’s as simple as that.”

It is nice to see that despite the troubles Aishwarya had to go through, she didn’t lose her positive outlook on life. By the way, so did another famous Indian beauty, Priyanka Chopra, who faced serious criticism because she had her baby via surrogate.

10 years after the fame: how has changed the life of the beautiful girl Honey Boo Boo after winning the beauty contest

When this little girl appeared on the TV screen, she captivated all viewers with her lively character and outstanding appearance. Honey Boo Boo delighted the audience at the beautiful children contest, where she took the main prize. There was no doubt that she would be the favorite. The audience was delighted with the child. Alana effectively posed for the camera, all her appearances caused a strong reaction from the public. And the coronation at this competition was only the beginning of her modeling and television career.

The little girl then started hosting her TV show ”Here Comes Honey Boo Boo”. From here came her nickname, which everyone remembered and liked. Growing up, the girl didn’t disappear from TV, at times she participated in various programs. But her real life was far from a happy fairy tale.

With her teenage period, it turned out that the beautiful girl was changing, and not for the better. Alana began to have difficulties with being overweight, and besides, there is a hereditary factor: her mother and sisters suffer from high obesity.

Alana is 17, she will soon graduate from school and go to study at a university as a doctor. Her dream is to work with babies, to be a nurse. She is still “starring as a star”, but her life plans surprise many immensely. And Alana also wants to be loved as a person, and not as a pop star Honey Boo Boo. For several years now, she has been asking everyone around her to address her by her real name and surname. In fact, she has no girlfriends and friends with whom she could talk heart to heart.

But not everything is so sad, the girl already has a fan. His name is Drelyn Carsville, he is four years older than Alana and supports her in everything. The girl feels joyful and happy, forgets about her problems being with him.

The girl is growing up and becomes wiser, and one can only rejoice about this, because not all star children were able to overcome this difficult period painlessly.
