- The first interesting thing about these two top actresses is that none of them ever thought of becoming an actress.
- Aishwarya’s favorite subject was Zoology. She wanted to study medicine but could not study. Surprisingly, Julia wanted to become a veterinarian but could not become one. Had Aishwarya been a Zoologist and Julia a veterinarian, they could have exchanged a lot of knowledge with each other, don’t you think?
- Another fact is that both Julia and Aishwarya Rai are highest paid actresses. In 2003, Julia was paid $25,000,000 for acting in the movie Mona Lisa Smile. In order to play her character, Katherine Ann Watson, a free thinking art professor, she observed art history class in New York University. On the contrary, I could not find any thing specific on Aishwarya Rai but according to the article published in Wikipedia, for a three minute dance performance in the closing ceremony of 2006 Commonwealth Games, she was paid three crore rupees.
- Another surprising fact, Julia Roberts is a big fan of Aishwarya Rai. According to her Aishwarya is the most beautiful women in the world and she is more beautiful than any Hollywood actress. What does Aishwarya thinks about Julia? Good question and the answer is I do not know.
- In terms of bad luck, these two actresses share the same fate. In beginning of her career, Julia auditioned for soap operas but could not get any chance. Aishwarya, like Julia, in the beginning of her career auditioned for voice-dubbing for a television serial but did not get chance.
