Aishwarya Sharma, one of television's most popular actresses, has become a fan favourite with her impactful performances. Her portrayal of Patralekha, aka Pakhi, in Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin left a lasting impression on viewers. After exiting the show, Aishwarya ventured into reality TV with appearances on Bigg Boss 17 and Khatron Ke Khiladi, where she continued to make her mark. In a recent interview, the actress opened up about what she has been up to since moving away from daily soaps
Aishwarya shared that she likes working out, watching shows, making reels, shopping and spending time with friends when she is not working. 'I think I can write a whole book on that," she said during an interview with The Times of India.
The actress also talked about her journey in Bigg Boss and shared that she wasn't aware of the strong image she had built while inside the house. 'I feel good when people personally tell me that you were very strong in Bigg Boss because I wasn't aware of that when I came out, and then only I got to know. I feel blessed," she said.
Aishwarya, who is quite active on social media, often entertains her followers with funny and light-hearted reels. Talking about this, she said, 'I am glad people like my reels. I just make them for fun, and mostly, I choose funny stuff. Nowadays, only people like to watch light-hearted stuff."
During the interview, Aishwarya also mentioned that while people recognise her skills in acting, singing and dancing, there is one thing most don't know about her. 'I am a very emotional person because people see me as she is funny, energetic, straightforward, blunt, and arrogant but I am too emotional I cry at every little things," she shared.
She further talked about her friendships in the entertainment world and admitted that she prefers keeping her circle small and honest. 'I have a few friends from the industry. I don't fake with people, I can't stand them. I really like transparency, honesty and no filter," she said, adding that those few close friends have stood by her in every situation like family.
Looking back at her journey so far, Aishwarya shared that she has no regrets and wouldn't want to change anything from her past. She believes that every experience, whether good or bad, has helped her grow and become a better version of herself.
On the professional front, Aishwarya is yet to announce her next project.

When Akshaye Khanna called Aishwarya Rai Bachchan ‘very beautiful': ‘Not just from the outside…'
Akshaye Khanna and Aishwarya Rai collaborated on three films, Aa Ab Laut Chale, Taal and Humara Dil Aapke Paas Hai. While in the first two films, the actors played each other's romantic interest, in the third film, Akshaye had a cameo. Their film Taal, directed by Subhash Ghai, was a blockbuster hit at the box office. Taal was among Aishwarya's first movies after she marked her debut in 1997. While Aishwarya went on to become a superstar in her later years, her co-star Akshaye Khanna had already predicted that she would become a 'very fine actress'. In an interview with Lehren Retro, Akshaye had predicted about 25 years ago, just before the release of their film Taal that Aishwarya will go on to become a 'very fine actress'. He said, 'I have worked with Aishwarya before in Aa Ab Laut Chale. Taal is my second one with her. She is very beautiful.' The actor added, 'Not just from the outside but also from the inside. She is always smiling and laughing. Always cheerful. I guess she is going to be a very fine actress. She has performed amazingly in Taal.'

He said, 'Ash (Aishwarya Rai)'. The actor added, 'I can't take my eyes off her every time I meet her. It's embarrassing for men. She must be used to it (people staring at her).

Exclusive- Abhishek Singh on choosing an Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin as his Hindi debut: Choosing a show on Television is a long commitment
Abhishek Singh recently joined the cast of Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, in an exclusive chat, the actor got candid about his character with the show, his upcoming projects and more. How do you choose the scripts that prompt you to say yes to something? I look to answer one question from each story - Can it exist without my character? If not, I'll do it. Basically, I'm looking for a character that is intriguing and has an impact. Television is quite different of course! In Television, I look for a good character, but also a good overall storyline. For instance, I'm doing Ghum hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, right now. My character is that of a corrupt cop. The show has a long legacy, and I wanted to be a part of it for that reason. Choosing a show on Television is a long commitment and I want to make sure it's a show people will remember. Which medium do you enjoy the most, OTT, Films or TV? Films, OTT and TV are all awesome in their own way! It's like before OTT came around and took over our screens, we had only TV and movies to satisfy our entertainment buds! TV was a family routine while movies were more like a weekend fix. With OTT's advent, we've got a lot of content at our fingertips. But as time goes by, it appears to have its own place.

But in the last decade or so we have seen some other regional players really break out, and they seem to be doing amazing work! I have not personally worked with any of them, so I can't comment on their competitive aspects. But with my stint in Mumbai, I can say that Mumbai is an immensely fast-paced, competitive industry! It is also filled to the brim with creative talent and it is quite an experience working in such a thriving creative environment! Jazz City tell us a little about your character and who is directing you? Jazz City is a really interesting story. I won't speak too much on it before the trailer release.
