In 2017, former actress and talk show host, Simi Garewal released a few unseen snippets from her Rendezvous with the late Iron Lady Dr. J Jayalalithaa. However what caught our attention was that in one of the snippets, Amma disclosed that not only does she find Aishwarya to be the most beautiful woman in the world, but she would also want Ash to play her if there is a film made about her life.

Jayalalitha had said, "I think Aishwarya Rai would be very suitable to play me in my younger days. But then to play me as I am now or I am likely to be in the future, I think it would be a little difficult.'
Incidentally, Aishwarya's first film role was based on Jayalalithaa, in the national-award-winning film Iruvar, helmed by Mani Ratnam.
