Aishwarya Rai Bachchan: Photoshop Scandal?

She’s widely considered one of the world’s most beautiful actresses, but Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's new Kalyan jewelers ad campaign is at the center of controversy.

The Bollywood actress’ slim figure in the print ads seems to be the result of some serious photoshopping, as she has been carrying some baby weight since the birth of her daughter last November.

One Indian news source noted, “It's quite surprising that she has got back to her lean self within a matter of two months' after she was last pictured with a fuller post-pregnancy figure.”

“We can't figure out if she's really lost weight or if the pictures are heavily Photoshopped. The ad has been shot aesthetically, which gives an impression that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is floating in golden-hued water. The actress was last spotted with baby Aaradhya in June this year, and it's quite surprising that she has got back to her lean self within a matter of two months, or as we said before - the images might be a result of heavy editing.”

However, the ad’s photographer Kiran Deohans fired back, “Coming back post-delivery after months and shooting for this commercial, Aishwarya is still the same. She is a true professional and has the same passion for work. As the director of photography, I felt she is the most beautiful woman I ever worked with. She always had that sparkling glow on her face earlier and even after pregnancy.”
