Former Miss World (and one in all Bollywood's biggest stars) Aishwarya Rai Bachchan--who gave birth last November to daughter Aaradhya with husband Abhishek Bachchan--is being slammed in her native India by film fans, on blogs, and in entertainment columns for not dropping her baby-weight quick enough, with several arguing the star, 38, includes a "duty" to her supporters to stay up her image.
In a significantly cruel example of the tough criticism being lobbed Rai's manner, a website posted a video of the actress, juxtaposing pictures of her pre- and post-baby--overlaid with the sound of elephants trumpeting. The clip has been viewed over five hundred,000 times. (Other sites have followed suit, with similar read counts).
"She may be a Bollywood actress and it's her duty to appear sensible and match," one video commenter sniped. Another steered she "needs to be told from individuals like Victoria Beckham who are back to size zero weeks once their delivery."
Showbusiness columnist Shobhaa De unfolded to the the big apple Daily News concerning the vitriol Rai faces.
"Aishwarya is sort of a goddess. She is held up because the ideal of beauty and thus there's an expectation on her to appear good in any respect times," De told the paper. "The role models being held up are Angelina Jolie and Victoria Beckham . . .this whole business of trying desperately skinny 2 weeks once giving birth may be a Western import."
