In 2000 the beautiful Bollywood star was named the Most Beautiful Miss World of All Time so posing next to the Indian godess is not advisable. Ashwarya was in London’s West End yesterday to premiere her new film, Provoked, which also stars, Lost’s Sayid, Naveen Andrews. 

Set in London in the late 80s, Provoked is inspired by the true story of Punjabi housewife and mother of two, Kiranjit Ahluwalia, who was freed by the British judicial system in a landmark case that redefined the word ‘Provocation’ in the case of battered women. Director Jagmohan Mundhra casts Bollywood beauty Aishwarya Rai in her most unglamorous role to date and manages to pull off a first – a film in which you actually forget the former Miss World’s good looks and empathize with her portrayal of a victim turned victor.
