Worry not - we’ve got our hands on a testimonial which has let the cat out of the bag. “I studied for a year at Jai Hind College, Mumbai and Aishwarya joined the college later,” the Taal star’s old college-friend, Shivani, told Rediff.



Sharing old memories, Shivani stated, “Guys struck by her beauty would come and stand at the college gates as she was strikingly beautiful even then.”

“She would travel by train and board at ‘Khar’ station. Sometimes, we would walk to college together. Boys (and girls) would stop to look at her in awe!” she continued.

Reminiscing about Aishwarya’s time in the classroom, Shivani said, “She had a big group of friends who were always late to class and sat at the back. But they’d sit at the front in Physics class as the teacher was very strict and Aishwarya wanted to impress her!”

“She was the apple of all the teachers' eyes, especially the Physics lecturer who encouraged her to appear in the college magazines, I think,” she continued.



Shivani went on to muse over Aishwarya’s popularity, “She was very down-to-earth and good at her studies. Everyone called her the most beautiful girl in college and soon, she proved to be the most beautiful girl in the world!”
