Aishwarya Rai’s Father Krishnaraj Was A Marine Biologist While Her Mother Brindya Is
Often cited by the media as the “most beautiful woman in the world”, Rai made her acting debut with Mani Ratnam’s Tamil film Iruvar (1997), and had her first commercial success in Jeans (1998). She tasted success in Bollywood with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam (1999) and Devdas (2002) and eventually won two Filmfare Awards in the Best Actress category. Rai has thus established herself as one of the leading contemporary actresses of Indian cinema. She is married to fellow actor Abhishek Bachchan. Her father, Krishnaraj, was a marine biologist, while her mother, Brindya, is a housewife.
