The Devdas actress has not only inspired millions of people, but she is also an inspiration to actors like Sharvari Wagh who grew up watching Aishwarya. In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, the Munjya actress revealed that she used to mimic the senior Bollywood actress in her childhood. Sharvari told us, “I always tried to mimic Aishwarya Rai Ma’am because I have light eyes, and growing up, people would say aap unke jaise dikhte ho (I resembled her). I enjoyed watching all her films; she is so beautiful and an incredible performer.”

She further recalled, “After watching her movies, I would come home, go to my mom’s cabinet where I kept all her dupattas, and wear them while dancing in front of the mirror. Aishwarya Rai Ma’am has always been a huge inspiration to me. I loved her films then and still do.” In the same chat, the Vedaa actress expressed that when she got the opportunity to meet her childhood idol, she didn’t have the courage as she was fangirling. Since it was a big moment for her, Sharvari just told Rai that she was a big fan.
