Bollywood actress, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is a strong lady. She had seen the most significant success in many setbacks, but she never stopped or lost hope. The gorgeousness stood herself again in Bollywood and showed off her worth with her dhamakedar comeback in the films. However, not many know that there was only one time in her life, when Aishwarya 'really cried', and it wasn't because of her professional lows.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was crowned Miss World in 1994, and she made her acting debut with Mani Ratnam's Tamil film, Iruvar, in 1997. After which, there was no looking back. In a 2000 interview with Rediff.com, Aishwarya talked about being a head girl and always getting first rank in the school. She added that only one time she got super hurt was when she came seven or eighth in the tenth class. She was quoted as saying:
"My parents never pushed me, but it was taken for granted because I always came first. It never was a big issue for me to get the first rank. When I came to the 10th grade, my seniors, my juniors, everybody thought I’d top the ICSE board exams. But I came seventh or eighth in class and that was a huge ego blow. That’s when it hurt. It really hurt because I had not valued my first rank until then."

Aishwarya also talked about how her parents and friends helped her deal with the problem. She shared that it was just an ego thing. She further shared:
"I realised it was an ego thing. I got into Jai Hind and I did my 12th grade in Ruparel eventually. My percentage was not poor, but it was only a trivial ego thing. Although I came eighth, there was only a 0.5 percent difference between the girls. It was then that I realised I was trying to live up to other people’s expectations and not my own. I’d never set any goals for myself. That was the only time in my life that I really cried. Thankfully, I had my parents and friends who kind of put things in perspective for me."
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is known as a blue-eye beauty, Aish and whatnot. But only her family knows the real Aishwarya, another normal woman trying to live her life. The actress also shares a beautiful relationship with her brother, Aditya Rai's wife, Shrima Rai. Once Shrima had revealed Aishwarya's cutest nickname. Yes, the actress has a nickname, and it is not Aish. Once during an 'Ask Me Anything' session, Aishwarya's bhabhi, Shrima, shared that Aishwarya is always her children's 'Gollu mami".
