Is mum Aishwarya Rai Bachchan aging backwards?

Over the years, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has proved herself to be an enigma. From winning the most prestigious beauty pageant to becoming a celebrated actor and then finally graduating to becoming a wife and a mother.

She has clearly managed all of these roles with ease and with the support of her doting family, she continues to charm her way into our hearts.

And while many wondered whether she will able to manage a career with the job of a full-time mum, looks like Aishwarya has done it and in all this she seems to be aging backwards. Yes, that's correct.

The 43-year-old recently became the cover girl of the coveted magazine Grazia and showed the world that motherhood has nothing to do with one's ability to succeed in life, and be fashionable at the same time.

Aishwarya, the cover girl unfazed by critics!

The magazine describes her as "Aishwarya Rai Bachchan – myth, legend, mother, actor, star, wife, girl-next-door, red carpet queen." We couldn't agree more.

Her style has always been simple and casual allowing her to care for and tend to more closely to her daughter.

However, she has often been bashed for her 'casual jeans and Tee hurried always' mom avatar.

But the mum-of-one remains unfazed by her critics. "I've never made it the fulcrum of my existence. We are a public personality and I know with social media, everybody has an opinion. I am realistic, I recognise them, I am on the public platform so there will be opinions galore," she recently shared .

Aishwarya the fashionably comfortable mum!

Even though she has many stylists at her beck-and-call who she can afford to acknowledge in public, she never does that. Aishwarya always gives them due credit.

And she says it is because of them that she is able to look stylish and well put together, even though her first priority is not fashion but her daughter, Aaradhya.

"I've always joked that I go with the flow and you all can enjoy the show. I know they (her stylists) will never do something which will make me physically uncomfortable. If I am, I won't go like that in front of the world," she shared.

Aishwarya, the most beautiful woman in the world!

With this latest cover Aishwarya proves that she is not just a caring and protective mother and wife, she is also at par with her fashionable counterparts.

But at the end of the day the title of 'the most beautiful woman in the world' is still hers to keep.

So what does she think about this compliment? "Beauty is transient and changes with time. I have always extended beyond a singular dimension. I haven’t been just a model, actor or title winner. The course I charted out for my career made me multi-dimensional and gave me opportunities to represent India on many global platforms," she says.

Aishwarya, the enigma

Even with millions of compliments coming her way, she still manages to be down-to-earth and teaches her daughter the same values, Perhaps why she radiates an aura like none.

But who is her fashion inspiration?

"My mother Vrinda Rai is the nucleus of my existence; she has gently moulded me, shaped me, picked me up when I’ve been down, kept the faith in me and taught me to be the best version of myself that I can be," she adds.

Aishwarya, the mother of red carpets

Although most working mums do not get the opportunity to walk on a red carpet everyday, Aishwarya does and she doesn't take it too seriously.

Her secret to looking good is the same as for any other regular mum- keeping it real and simple.

"Walking the red carpet is your opportunity to have fun with fashion. You’re in the world of seduction; although, I don’t think you should take it too seriously. I believe in being confident and dressing in something that truly shows who I am—that’s my little secret," she reveals.
