Guess who’s Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s new friend? The American model, TV hostess, actress, singer and businesswoman Tyra Banks. The two beauties discovered kindred souls in each other the moment Ash went onto The Tyra Banks Show in New York after the premiere of Pink Panther 2 on February 2.
They hit it off from the word go. And, after the show, Tyra invited Ash for lunch. The twosome went to a downtown restaurant and talked like there was no tomorrow. They decided to stay in touch thereafter. Something else that Ash did in NY that was not in character was the way she dressed for the premiere and pink carpet - yes, in the Big Apple, they don’t do a red carpet. Giving up her trademark sari, she opted for a black Ferretti designer gown worn with Jimmy Choo diamond-strapped shoes and an Armani clutch purse.
She explained, “I love the sari and if people think of me as the global representative of the beautiful apparel then I’m happy. But I also like to surprise myself and others. Just like doing the hot babe act in Dhoom 2 and the Rajput princess in Jodhaa Akbar. Both the avatars are me. And I’m equally comfortable in a gown.”
