Why is no one talking about how skinny Ash looks in this movie. She looks totally fab! now i can rest easy and stop trying to find a new bollywood queen. (Im not saying she's the best actress, but she's just so devastatingly gorgeous i can't look at her for long though for fear that it might make me jump out a window in hopes to be reincarnated as her clone!) anyway i digress...She has positively lost a notible amount of weight from the mistress of spices days. Im in shock im the first one to comment about it. Surely other people must have noticed. And also i want to know what the freaking heck is her secret. She has the face of an 18 yr old and shes 33! Whatever it is i can only hope that she will share...well not to everyone or else it wouldn't be so special would it?

Aishwarya looked beautiful and womanly in Mistress of Spices. I hope you aren't saying SKINNY is beautiful. Ugh!!
As for her secret, I'd say being Indian is her secret. heehee
I am also Indian, and my grandmother, who is 94, looks 60 and still exercises! :)
Anyway, I agree with you about Aishwarya's beauty. Absolutely stunning, although my husband begs to differ. :(

I'm much too fond of the night sky to be fearful of the dark.

I was sad to see her so skinny. Each of the 'Sexiest Woman Alive' ladies always have full figures and I am unhappy to see Ash's go. I hate to think she has been tainted by the pole thin, 10-year old boy body look that seems to frequent in the model circles these days.
My bet to her secret with skin is probably her diet and which brand she uses for general skin care. People are always surprised that eating right and sticking to water do wonders for your looks.

Maybe she deliberately lost weight for playing the part of the abused wife in this movie. When some people feel helpless and hopeless in their situation in life, they become depressed. Two common symptoms of true depression are to either start eating too much or to stop eating much of anything at all. Her character had put up with horrible abuses from her husband for 10 years, and she thought her situation was hopeless. If that wouldn't cause mind-numbing depression, I don't know what would. I've been depressed in the past (but not because of suffering abuse), and I know I've stopped eating too during those sad times...just didn't take any joy from anything at all, including food. Thank God that's behind me now. So, the actress might have wanted to appear frail for that reason.
