An Article from The Times Of India

After mother-in-law Jaya Bachchan hosted a godh bharai for bahu Aishwarya Rai at Jalsa last week, on October 23 Ash's mother Vrinda Rai held one over lunch at a hotel in Bandra.

Says a source close to Aishwarya, "The godh bharai by Ash's mother was a very traditional Mangalorean one, known as baike, where the mother hosts the godh bharai for her daughter. It was a quiter one as the hotel had promised them privacy and there was no media madness. Ash's parents got the venue late on Saturday night, and they were there till early in the morning supervising all the arrangements."

Vrinda had personally taken care of the details. "Everything was elegant and tasteful. There was a troupe from the south to play Mangalorean music, while white flowers, especially jasmine, and brass urlis (ritualistic Kerala lamps made of bell metal) were part of the decor. The flowers were traditional south Indian with a strong Kerala theme. The cuisine was also from the south and had dishes from every state in the south, ranging from velli aapam, malabar parathas, prawns, egg stew, allepy fish curry, roast urlakalang, yene kathrika, hyderabadi biryani, curd rice, steamed fish and paneer in banana leaf."

Guests
The source adds that the Bollywood presence was minimal as it was a family affair. "Apart from the Bachchans and Kapoors, the only other Bollywood presence was that of Mani Ratnam, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Ashutosh Gowariker. Shweta Nanda and her family were present, along with Abhishek and his friends, including Sikander and Kirron Kher, Shrishti Arya and Sonali Bendre-Behl. Shrishti's husband Sameer and Sonali's husband Goldie are out of India shooting for their next film and couldn't attend. Ash wore a traditional pistachio green and gold Kanjeevaram saree given by her parents, while Abhishek wore a green and gold kurta-pajama. The couple looked colour coordinated and extremely happy."

While saying that it was a traditional Mangalore style function , what is with the reporting about "kerala" theme ? Mangalore is part of Karnataka and I doubt there was anything Kerala style about it, duh ...... Typical superficial reporting without getting the basics right.

Its a nice feeling when you know that someone likes you,
someone thinks about you,
someone needs you;but it feels much better when you know that someone never ever forgets your birthday.
*HAPPY BIRTHDAY*

Why post a pic not related to the event? This is not her best though...

Schmuck would do well to behave herself/himself and talk to other posters decently.
everyone here has a right to express their opinions. because Bollywood celebrities are public figures and this is a Bollywood blog. We are free to express opinions as long as they are not abusive.

Just because Ash pays you to praise her, does not mean we all are forced to praise her.

Are you in your senses? If I remember correctly, everybody was annoyed that she did not invite them for her wedding. That was a National issue back then. And of course people love her. She chooses to invite her close circle of friends because that is her choice. Why will any nincompoop want to question that?

in bollywood actresses don't have friendship between them. does sonam, deepika kareena or katrina has any female actress friend. so why people expect from ash to have friends from bollywood( though she has some friend like raveena, urmila , preity, twinkle etc) but most these have friends from non filmy background.

She is always grinning like a hyena. Great looking sari though.
