We talk about her films a LOT, so you knew this was coming: superstar Aishwarya Rai! We both like her acting in general, so we dig into why we think she's good, why other people think she's bad, and what kind of burden it must be to know that no matter what you do or say, someone will hate it. How can one woman manage the burden of being TMBWITW, getting abused by a mega-star, being a face and body of India's economic liberalization, and marrying into the Bachchan family? We're tired just thinking about it - even before we consider the range of work she's done!Films in focus: Iruvar (1997), Aur Pyaar Ho Gaya (1997), and Guzaarish (2010). (If your favorite Aishwarya film isn't here, don't worry - we've might have talked about it in another episode. For example, we've discussed Kandoukondain Kandoukondain, Dhoom 2, Enthiran, Chokher Bali, Taal, Josh, and Jeans...).
