Pictures definitely speak louder than words! This throwback picture from the Miss India Beauty pageant is definitely a testimony to that. While Aishwarya Rai looks resplendent in her lime green outfit and her dazzling Miss World crown, Sushmita Sen can barely contain her excitement on winning the Miss Universe tag as she shines bright in a white and pink bejeweled outfit. The actresses are candidly captured in the photo as they seem to be thanking the audience for their big win.
Recently when Sushmita was asked about the constant comparisons being drawn between her and Aishwarya, she had said, “See, people who feel we are rivals need to realise that Ash has lived life on her terms, but that’s who she is. I’ve seen Ash working very hard on the film sets, I can’t do it. I don’t work more than 8 hours a day. At times, people get angry with me because of this, but I can’t work more than that. For 8 hours, when I’m working, I won’t trouble you. I would even skip my lunch and work constantly, but thereafter I want to go home, switch off my phone…then I don’t exist.”
