Aishwarya Rai Bachchan heaps praise on Modi

Actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. She said that what Modi has been doing for the country is not an easy job.

During an interview to ETV news channel, the former Miss World said that what Modi has been doing for the country is not an easy job. She also said that whatever he is doing is for the well being of the nation and its people.

Asked if she would like to start her political career from Uttar Pradesh, she made it clear that her platter is full - she is a good mom, a good daughter, a good wife as well as a responsible citizen of the country. The actress, who is married to actor Abhishek Bachchan, is very content with her job.

Although she didn't make it clear that she wouldn't enter politics, she did not affirm it either. She also said that the question is just an estimate of possibilities.

With regard to a question about the new destiny of her life, she gave quite a philosophical answer. She said that she is not living her life with the purpose of achieving a destiny. The "Devdas" actress added that life is just a journey and there are ups and downs.

Aishwarya has high hopes for her upcoming film "Sarbjit", which will release on May 20. She said the world had seen the power of the media during the Sarabjit case. The fact that media can give voice to the people also came forth.

"Sarbjit" is based on the life of Indian farmer Sarabjit Singh, who strayed into Pakistan, was convicted of terrorism and spying in Pakistan and sentenced to death.
