Aishwarya Rai Bachchan commands the room in black as she recalls Miss World questions on India’s old stereotypes

Highlights:

  • Aishwarya Rai Bachchan revisits her 1994 Miss World experience at Red Sea Film Festival
  • Says many questions about India then came from “less informed” views
  • Shares memories of handling assumptions about education, geography, and stereotypes
  • Reaffirms that Miss World gave her a platform to contribute beyond the crown

At the Red Sea Film Festival, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan went back to her Miss World 1994 moment. She spoke plainly about how that win still follows her, even in rooms like this one, where she is often asked again about India and what it meant to represent it at 21. The session also touched on how she faced “less informed” questions about the country at the time, a reminder of the gap between India’s reality and the world’s dated ideas.
