Aishwarya Rai is one of the most stunning actresses of her generation. She is not only known for her mesmerising beauty and acting skills but has also shown her sassy nature time and again. She has shut down sexist questions of many interviewers during various candid conversations. In contrast, when matters came to her hospitality, the diva also proved that for every Indian, it is always 'Atithi devo bhava'.
We stumbled upon a small video from one of Aishwarya Rai's interviews with a British journalist for Al-Jazeera in 2012. For the interview, Aishwarya opted for a lavish restaurant in Mumbai alongside British television host, journalist, comedian, and writer, David Frost. For the day, Aishwarya opted for a beige-hued ethnic outfit and kept her look on point. Soft glam makeup and side-parted open tresses added stars to her overall look.

In the small clip from the interview, the actress was heard ordering Indian food, for her guest interviewer, David. She was heard saying, "We would like some tikkas, different kebabs. Easier on the spices for him. And a dal would be great." Aishwarya further asked him, "Do you like the Indian bread or rice?" David replied, "Oh, I love the Indian bread." Afterwards, Aishwarya added:
"The Indian breads, yeah, the naans and kulchas and rotis would be great, and maybe a raita or a yogurt as well at the end. Ofcourse, there will be dessert but that will come to later. This is for me. Great, thank you."
During another segment of the same interview, Aishwarya was also seen teaching the British journalist how to eat samosa in desi style. The diva then demonstrated the Indian way of eating samosa by hand as she initially explained the difficulty of eating the same with a fork and knife. Afterwards, she was seen picking up the piece of samosa from her plate and explained that it was meant to be eaten with hands and not with a fork or knife. The journalist, too, then seemingly tried to eat his samosa with a fork and knife. Watching him do so, Aishwarya chuckled and stated:
"Happy snacking with the hand. It is not quite easy to do this (eat samosa) with a fork and knife. This is a hand snack, a finger snack."

Talking about Aishwarya's another instance with an journalist, it was during her appearance at the Cannes International Film Festival in 2009, when she had shut a French journalist after he crossed the line by asking an uncomfortable question. Aishwarya was asked about her take on going nude on screen, to which, she calmly responded, "I’ve never, ever, explored and I am not interested in exploring nudity on celluloid.” However, soon, the journalist further probed her by asking if she was okay to try nudity on screen. To this, Aishwarya showed her sassy nature and mentioned:
“I feel I’m talking to my gynac. I mean, who am I talking to? You’re a journalist, brother, stick to that.”
