When A Newly Crowned Miss World Aishwarya Rai Gave A Very Sensible Answer To A 'Million Dollar' Question
After she was crowned Miss World in 1994, Aishwarya Rai gave a well-put answer when she was hypothetically asked how will she use a million dollars. No wonder she owned the title with glory
Before making everyone crazy with her drop-dead gorgeous looks in the movies, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan back then had owned the world with her beauty and charm in 1994. A young Aishwarya Rai was crowned as Miss World in 1994 and after her big win, there really was no looking back for the star. Not just that, after her win, she also proved to be grounded and the proof of it lies in her throwback interview with NDTV. During the interview with the portal, she was hypothetically asked that what she would do if someone gave her million dollars. Instead of giving an answer in a fraction of seconds, Ash took some time and said that she wouldn't answer it within a second and would give it days of thought while thinking about it seriously.
Aishwarya was quoted saying, "I wouldn't be frivolous about it. I'd put it to practical use because it's one, hell a lot of money and you have to think about what you're going to do with it. You're not going to just indulge, indulge and indulge because after a point, what are you going to do, you know?"
"It's a lot of money, you've got to think about it. When you're just granted money like this, when you think of the humanitarian aspect of it honestly, not just because I am Miss World. I'm not saying this only because of the title, but honestly, you have to direct this money towards something fruitful, something that would give you true joy, honestly. Because money comes and money goes," Rai added.
Meanwhile, after winning the title, she then bagged her first Hindi film, Aur Pyaar Hogaya opposite Bobby Deol. However, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam proved to be a breakthrough for Ash who won a lot of accolades for the film. Since then, she went on to deliver some brilliant blockbusters with Devdas, Dhoom 2, Jodhaa Akbar, to name a few.
