Aishwarya
Rai to do pulse polio campaign
in Pakistan
Behindwoods September

The
Pakistani Government has
decided to launch a pulse
polio campaign. It needed
a well known face to propagate
the campaign. Because
women are still under
purdah and there are
not many actresses,
the Government kept
wringing its hands.
Some one then suggested
our own Aishwarya Rai
to appear in the promotional
campaign. Aware of the
huge fan following she
enjoys among the film
audience there, the
Pak government approached
India to allow her to
work. The Indian side
agreed and soon Aish
will appear in a promo
for pulse polio along
side the famous Pakistani
singer, Javed Ahmed.
