Ive-never-been-treated-diffAishwarya Rai Bachchan has been rated the most bankable Bollywood actor in Hollywood. This topples Bollywood biggies like Shah Rukh, Aamir or even the Hollywood-experienced Freida Pinto. Under this light, it seems a little ironic that Bollywood has never had any official ‘most bankable’ actress.

When asked about this phenomenon by a channel, Aishwarya Rai contempelated, “From the time I had joined the industry I was forewarned about this difference. And since then, I have wondered if I work with this notion in mind or just go ahead doing my work?”

True to her diplomatic, always-diplomatically-correct self, Ash went on to say, “And I realise that I just do my work. I don’t believe I have ever been treated any different.

At anytime, anyone of us does well for the entire gender. I have definitely been regarded as an equal part of the cast always!” With her ever-increasing correctness politically, one wonders when the beauty will actually plunge into the career she is indirectly doing so well
