Marriage is recommended to all: Aishwarya

New Delhi, Dec 5 (IANS) It seems newly wed Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is enjoying herself completely, as the Bollywood actor strongly recommends the institution of marriage to everyone."I am a happy girl, can't you make out?" beamed Aishwarya.
"
Marriage is a beautiful chapter in life. It is so blissful and wonderful...in fact difficult to articulate. I strongly recommend it to everyone. Each one of us must experience it," she told IANS Wednesday.

"Everybody was teasing me when I came here to celebrate 'karva chauth' (a Hindu ritual). But I said I have to experience it," she added.

The actress, who won the Miss World pageant in 1994 and started her stint in the Hindi film industry with "Aur Pyaar Ho Gaya," was in the capital to unveil the bridal collection of watch brand Longines.

She got married to Bollywood star Abhishek Bachchan on Feb 20, 2007.

Commenting on the response of people after her marriage she said: "Wherever we have travelled, people have showered us with their blessing. I am bowled over by their response and very strongly feel that we are a part of an extended family."

However, Aishwarya said she hasn't spent much time with her family.

"Our honeymoon was our first holiday and after that we were straight back to work. I wish I could have taken more time off. I would love to spend every minute of the day with Abhishek."

Being a workingwoman the actress agrees that marriage brings a lot of responsibilities and one has to juggle up too many things.

"I am enjoying every aspect of being married. But frankly telling being a workingwoman it is more hectic now. There is a constant race against time. I could never imagine that my hours and days would be so full."

"Although I have found the key to it - time management. It is imperative for every working individual to discover the ability of time management. You have to take time out for your maternal family, in-laws and for your own (husband-wife) relationship at the same time."

After her lead roles in hits like "Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam," "Devdas," "Dhoom 2" and "Guru", she is now all set to woo audiences in "Sarkar Raj," "Pink Panther 2" and "Jodhaa Akbar".

Why Aishwarya Rai is very selective about work

The gorgeous Aishwarya Rai Bachchan says that she is very selective about work because she believes in totally fulfilling the commitments she makes.

Ash, who has her bag full of projects along with marital responsibilities to shoulder, says she takes up only those projects, which she can handle.






"Whether it is films or endorsements, I am, and have been, very selective about my work. I take up work which suits and fits in my schedule," Ash is quoted as saying by a news agency.

"I don't take projects that I cannot handle because I believe in totally fulfilling the commitments made by me," the Bachchan bahu added.

Ash said she enjoys getting into the skin of varied roles.

"I have always tried to pick up a variety of projects as I want to have different experiences with different projects. Also preferences for roles grow with time."

Ash was recently in the capital to launch the bridal collection of watch brand that she endorses. And like every woman, she is happy about possessing a range of them matching her various outfits.

"The first watch that I received was gifted to me by my family. Now, I have a variety of them in my wardrobe and I enjoy it, like any other woman."

"With saris I sport timepieces with delicate and feminine dials. However, my personal favourites are watches with chunky dials."

Commenting on her upcoming films Ash said, "It was a fantastic experience shooting 'Pink Panther 2'. It was wonderful as the schedule was just perfect for me. And Jodhaa Akbar took its duration, as it is a period film."

Apart from director Harald Zwart's much talked about Hollywood flick and Ashutosh Gowarikar 's historical epic, Ash has Ram Gopal Varma 's Sarkar Raj in her kitty.

AISHWARYA RAI - RAI ADJUSTING TO MRS BACHCHAN


Newly wed AISHWARYA RAI is finding it difficult to get used to her new name following her marriage to fellow film star ABHISHEK BACHCHAN. The superstar couple tied the knot in a ceremony in Mumbai, India last month (20Apr07), the climax of three-days of festivities. But the Bollywood actress admits she still finds it strange when people use her new moniker. She says, "This is the first travel where people start calling you, 'Hello Mrs Bachchan, good evening'. "I've maybe done a double take at times, but pleasantly so, it makes us smile, so it's been good."
