Ravishing Aishwarya Rai was seen in quite a few successful Tamil films such as Jeans, Iruvar and Kandukondein Kandukondein. She has since become busy in Bollywood and in the past year also entered Hollywood. In a recent interview to a British television channel, Ash claimed that her creative instincts were tested and honed to the full while working under Mani Ratnam in Iruvar which also happens to be her favorite movie so far.
