Why Aishwarya Rai Decided to Put Her Career on Hold and Proved She’s More Than Just a Pretty Face

Aishwarya Rai turns 50 in 2023. The popular Indian actress who worked her way into Hollywood suddenly faced the harshest criticism when she became a mother. Yet she bravely overcame adversity and stayed true to herself. We are sure her story will inspire many women.

Aishwarya began modeling while still in college, and in 1994, she won the title of Miss World. Surely, filmmakers immediately noticed this charismatic beauty. The woman quickly became a movie star in India, and then in the Western part of the world too. The media even called Rai “the most beautiful woman in the world.”

1994. Aishwarya is 21 years old.

In 2006, the woman played opposite a popular Indian actor, Abhishek Bachchan. On the set, a spark of love flashed immediately between them, and in 2007, the lovers got married.

In 2010, the actress suddenly decided to abandon her career and took a 5-year-long sabbatical. In early 2011, everyone found out why — the couple was expecting a child. Given that Aishwarya was 38 years old at the time, the pregnancy was considered geriatric.

Many women in this situation would have preferred a C-section, but the actress chose a traditional birth and even refused to have anesthesia. According to one of her relatives, Rai wanted a normal delivery.

On November 16, beautiful Aardhya was born while Aishwarya was hit by a powerful wave of hatred. The photos of the former Miss World where she was 5 months postpartum caused a stir on social media.

Of course, there were those who defended the actress and said that people’s fixation on someone’s weight is disgusting. There were both ordinary social media users and famous fashion designers among them.

2012. Aishwarya is 39 years old.

It wasn’t easy for her to stay strong under social pressure. However, Aishwarya had always been known for living by her own rules and not paying attention to stereotypes. It was probably her integrity and positive outlook on life that helped her go through body shaming with dignity, and enjoy motherhood to the fullest.

When asked if she was depressed by the way society treated her, she confidently replied, “When I became a mother, it was the most beautiful feeling in the world. There were several hormonal changes within, but it didn’t change anything. There was never a point of self-doubt. I’m so happy in my own life with Aaradhya around and the positivity as well as clarity that I have in my head about myself. Nobody else is dictating or telling me how to be and what to do.”

At a comfortable pace, without trying to please fans or producers, Rai regained her former shape, and then began filming again. It took her 4 years.

In 2023, the Indian actress impressed everyone by a spectacular appearance in a Sophie Couture dress at the Cannes Film Festival. At the same event, she gave a short interview about how to feel comfortable in your own body and not to judge others and yourself.

“Don’t go around attaching your judgement on others who make their choices. I think that’s just the way it should be. It’s a free world: live and let live,” she said. “I think when people tend to do that, it probably stems from insecurity. If you’re comfortable in your skin, and you’re comfortable being you, you really wouldn’t even expend that energy in being judgmental. It’s as simple as that.”

It is nice to see that despite the troubles Aishwarya had to go through, she didn’t lose her positive outlook on life. By the way, so did another famous Indian beauty, Priyanka Chopra, who faced serious criticism because she had her baby via surrogate.

Jada Smith’s son made a request that she could not accept, hurting her heart

Raising children in the spotlight is difficult; Jada and Will Smith understand this better than anyone.

Despite criticism from family and friends, especially Jada’s mother, they have tried their hardest to raise their two children, Jaden and Willow, with love and care.

Being a parent in the public eye is a challenging task. Still, they continue to demonstrate strength in the face of any problems that come their way as they attempt to provide a secure environment for their children to grow up in.

The Smiths had been through many hardships, especially when their son said something hard for Jada to understand.

Despite its appearance, growing up with famous parents provides a distinct set of challenges, such as being judged on a different scale than other children and having difficulty determining one’s true identity.

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith faced a dilemma when their 15-year-old son Jaden declared wanting to leave the family home and become self-sufficient.

Even though they were shocked and upset by the news, Jaden’s parents eventually supported his bold move toward independence.

Jada’s mother, Adrienne Banfield-Jones, doubted the decision but finally trusted her grandson’s judgment.

Despite all the media attention from his fame, Jaden found balance with courage and wisdom beyond his years.

Jaden’s parents had to impose restrictions because he had decided to go vegan but was not meeting his dietary needs. His mother, Jada, realized that giving her kid more freedom to make his own decisions would benefit them.

So, even if Jaden didn’t go through with his original plans, they still gave him the freedom he wanted. However, it wasn’t enough, and his health suffered due to insufficient dietary information.

Jaden knew his lifestyle threatened him, so he became a vegetarian.

In addition to this change in diet, Jaden also changed how he ate. He ate more often and became more aware of how inadequate nutrition affects the body.

Jaden left his parents’ house in 2017 for a fresh start. His move brought him to Hidden Hills, only a few minutes from his parent’s house.

Even though they live far apart, Jaden stays close to his family and looks to them for advice and direction.
