Highlights
- Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is the guest on India First with Shaina NC this weekend. The fashion designer, social activist and politician Shaina will question Ash on several burning topics.
- Aishwarya talks about her vision for the country and issues like beauty pageants, scams in the country and unity within the film industry.
- The show will be telecast on Sunday April 23 at 8.30 pm on a news channel. Here are some extracts from her interaction with the international star...
- Shaina: About promises made by beauty queens which are not fulfilled after they join the film industry.
- Ash: I have not promised anything like that. After I was crowned Miss World, I engaged in charity work and collected money for various hospitals and kids who needed health care.
- On corruption
- It feels good that the media is aggressive in exposing corruption. However, it is sad that the scams are happening in our country.
- About being in politics
- I am not considering entering into politics. It is every Indian's duty to do something for the nation and it can be done via apolitical route too.
- About Bachchan's criticism
- Silence is golden sometimes. We don't need to react to everything that is being said in the media. However, if it becomes absolutely necessary, then we will react and people will listen to us at that time.
- About India's position in the world
- Our country is raging ahead of all.
- About her expectation from Indians
- I believe that everyone should dispense their duties at a personal level. Little contributions from everyone can make a big difference.
