Here is my view of Ashi -
Personality: She seems harmless and is probably a good natured character. But her accent sounds really made up & she talks like a bimbo. She comes across as sweet/open-hearted to many people, but to me, she looks superficial.
I find it hard to believe that she is so clueless about India & its culture. I know it can be possible in the real world. But here's the catch, if someone can speak that much hindi(even if it's not proper), my natural inference would be that the person would probably know more about Indian traditions than what Ashi does.
Beauty: If I really analyze her face, her features don't seem pretty, she is just very fair. If some one focuses just on her eyes, they look weird (in my opinion). Her complexion is great, very even & very fair.
Grace: She lacks a certain inner grace somehow, but maybe that's because of that accent.
I find Anandi to be prettier, with better features. Of course Anandi's dressing makes sure that most of her prettiness can only discerned by a keen observer, who focuses above the neck! Which is why I loved it when Ashi appreciated Anandi's slim & petite frame, which many people fail to notice due to her loose dresses.
