Sushmita Sen and Aishwarya Rai, the ultimate beauty queens of Bollywood have carved a niche for themselves in this industry. Both the ladies, who have been on a break from acting for the past few years, seem to be coming back with the same film - Prahlad Kakar's debut Bollywood directorial, Happy Anniversary. In an interview to Hindustan Times, Sushmita talks of this re-union with her once-upon-a-time rival, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
"Aishwarya, I am looking forward to working with you! The truth is that Prahlad, Ash and I go back a long way... to our (1994) beauty pageant days. I've never known her well enough to call her a friend. But I think she is a great human being. In those days, our lives ran parallel. Later, we chose different paths. But there was no rivalry. I live my life loving people."
