She became runner-up in the Miss India pageant in 1994, and was subsequently sent to Sun City, where she won the Miss World 1994 title.
Her beauty and brains were unmatched by any other contestant. Her Green-Blue eyes made her famous, and to prove her generosity and good thoughts, she has donated her eyes. Aishu, as I and her family love to call her, began to get into the film industry .
With the first film released being Iruvar (tamil). She then did other films such as Aur Pyaar Hogaya, jeans,taal,hum dilde chukesanam,kandukondain and recently did josh. Her superb dancing ability, as exhibited in Taal n Jeans movie, will definitely be a plus in her acting career.
The combination of her many features has made Aishu one of the most wanted girls in the world. Almost every man dreams to have her, and every woman dreams to emulate her. Her perfect match of beauty, style and intelligence makes Aishu my opinion of the perfect woman.
