British director Gurinder Chadha hired her to play the heroine in Bride and Prejudice, a Hollywood-funded but Bollywood-ized version of Jane Austen's classic novel, Pride and Prejudice. The movie did well at the box office and Aishwarya's Hollywood profile rose a notch.

Amisha Patel

Amisha whenever she hit's a low, she bounced back with one major hit that saved her the blues. Be it Gadar or then Humraaz. Now she is reapeating this in the form of historical The Rising a Ketan Mehta and Aamir Khan's projects. Amisha Patel was born on 19th June 1979 in Mumbai. For studies she went to abroad. Determination has been one of her strengths. Even when she was in Standard IV, Amisha was sure that she wanted to be the head girl of the school. When she told her mother about it, she laughed it off. Amisha worked towards her goal by improving upon her academic record and by the time she reached Standard XII, she became one. While doing Economics in the United States, Amisha kept herself busy teaching classical dance in her free time. She did join a financial company but a regular nine to five job couldn't hold her for long. She joined Satyadev Dubey's theatre group and started doing plays after convincing her parents a process that took a year. Armed with a foreign degree and an ultra respectable family background Amisha Patel was to be the CEO of the family business. Fate have something to do with her. Director Rakesh Roshan had already signed Kareena Kapoor opposite his son and had even started shooting with her. When that association did not work out Roshan remembered his fascination with his school friend Amit Patel's limpid-eyed daughter at a sangeet celebration. Rakesh Roshan even remarked that if he ever made a film with his son he would take her as a heroine. And this way she got her debut film Kaho Naa Pyar Hai. After that she had given other hits also like Gadar, Humraaz. In 2003 she had a Parwane which was a flop. Amisha Patel believe what is in destiny no one can take away from you. She replaced Priyanka Chopra in Humraaz. In her debut film 'KNPH' she replaced Kareena. Amisha Patel has the best collection of bags and belts in tinselville. Whenever she goes abroad she shops for expensive accessories. Her collection includes from Louis Vuitton, Salvotore Feragamo, Christian Dior, Gucci and Versace. Her forth coming films are Vikram Bhatt's Elaan in which she is playing a journalist. Then The Rising for which she is very thrilled to work with Aamir Khan. She is playing an innocent bengali girl, Jwala who gone through a devastating time before a Britisher comes into her life. These days her personel life is also has a lot going on. She had Vikram Bhatt eating out of her pretty palms in venice and now when back home its Abhishek Bachchan who is showing a lot of interest in her. Both tuned in Morocco when they were there for Film Festival few months ago.

And people like my fans give me so much love which I really respect and thankful for”, says the gorgeous Ayesha Takia, who has already made a name for herself in the competitive world of Bollywood (a sobriquet for the Hindi film industry). This young and lovely Indian film actress hails from Chembur in the city of Mumbai in Maharashtra She was born on April 10, 1985 into a mixed family. While her father Nishit is from the Gujrati community, her mother is an Anglo- Indian Muslim (half British and half Maharashtrian) by the name of Faridah. Natasha Takia, her younger sister, was born in the year 1988. Ayesha Takia completed her schooling in St. Anthony's High School. Since her mother has a British background, Ayesha grew up speaking English at her home. She learned Hindi and Telugu when she ventured into the world of cinema. Among actors, Ayesha Takia’s favourites are Aamir Khan and Shahrukh Khan. Sridevi and Rani Mukherji are her favorite actresses.. Ayesha Takia made her first appearance on television in the well-known Complan advertisement campaign which has the famous “I’m a Complan Boy! I'm a Complan Girl!” logo.

Ayesha’s debut film is “Taarzan: The Wonder Car” where she worked opposite another newcomer Vatsal Seth. This film is a bit different from the usual mainstream love story as it has certain supernatural elements in it. Talking about the film Ayesha says: “As an actress I want to do all roles that would inspire or challenge me. The first film that I did was not like the usual commercial flick, so I am trying to do varied roles.” Although the film failed to make a mark at the box office, Ayesha earned rave reviews for her performance. She bagged the Filmfare Best Debut Award in the year 2004 for her performance in Taarzan. Some of the films fared poorly at the box office. But she again came to limelight in the year 2006 with her powerful performance in the low budget film Dor. In this film she plays the role of a young widowed Rajasthani woman called Meera who stays in a conventional joint family. Again in 2006, Ayesha Takia came to be considered amongst the top ten desirable women of India in a survey that was carried out by Zoom, an Indian TV channel .
