Newsweek interviews Aishwarya Rai

Filed under: Uncategorized — Julie B. @ 8:47 pm

Newsweek profiles Aishwarya Rai, star of BRIDE AND PREJUDICE. In the interview she discusses Bond, bikinis, Bollywood, and of course, BRIDE AND PREJUDICE:

…I definitely think the Hindi film industry offers wonderful, feel-good cinema. Movies like “Lagaan” [where Indian villagers beat the British at cricket] or “Devdas” [a tale of star-crossed lovers] and movies that have reached that kind of caliber have had the world audience reacting to their feel-good element and their focus on family values. When we were on the set [of BRIDE AND PREJUDICE], Martin [Henderson], my co-star in “Bride,” kept saying: “There’s just this innocence to the emotion of love in this movie, which makes it very pure.”
