It seems that Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai is tired of people addressing her by her nickname “Ash” and has requested them to call her by her full name.

“When I joined the industry, people initially used to say they have difficulty in pronouncing my name, so they started calling me ‘Ash’. But now, it has been years and I guess, everyone can pronounce it properly,” Aishwarya told reporters.

“So I would appreciate, if you people address me by my name - Aishwarya,” she added.

The model-turned-actress walked the ramp for designer Manish Malhotra at the ongoing HDIL-India Couture Week and thanked her husband Abhishek for bringing the name issue in the forefront.

It is believed that Abhishek had recently requested some journalists to refer to her by her full name.

Re: Don't call me Ash, says Aishwarya

wow she looks soooo pretty-her hair colour is sooo damn gorgeous...love her eyes in that second pic.....i have seen each and everypic from raavan premier/launches but not these ones where she is wearing light coloured shalwar kameez/chooridar

Re: Don't call me Ash, says Aishwarya

Fourth pic not the greatest.

Re: Don’t call me Ash, says Aishwarya

UFF WOMAN!!!

I bet you’d even think Aishwarya’s skull would be gorgeous. I can picture it now…“Oh, look these are the empty sockets that once housed her gray-green eyes…they’re soooo beautiful. This is the hole where her delicate nose used to sit…shhooo cute. And look…the only thing that remains the same are her teeth…shooooo shweeet.” :smack:

Oh wait…if her antim sanskaar is going to be in flames…then you’ll never get to get the skull…it’ll just be “ash-es”…(dang…look at the pun). Never mind. :smack: It’s better if you don’t see such a sad scene…phir pata nahin tumhara KYAAAAA hoga. :hinna:

Re: Don't call me Ash, says Aishwarya

How do u pronounce it perfectly anyway? Ash-war-ee-ya??

Not the best pics of her, the second one esp is v.unflattering.. The ones showing her on the runway for Manish Malhotra a few days ago were stunning tho..

Re: Don't call me Ash, says Aishwarya

The first 4 letters of her name (Aish) are pronounced as you would the beginning of the name, Aisha/Ayesha.
