Aishwarya Not to Accept French Honor Without Dad
Aishwarya Rai has been conferred Officer Dan Ordre Des Arts Et Des Lettres honor by the French authorities, but Aishwarya Rai will not be accepting the honor until her father gets hale and hearty.
Aishwarya said, “Thank-you, but not now,” to the French government when they conferred on her the second highest civilian award, which was also given to Shah Rukh Khan.
Aishwarya says, “I wanted my entire family — and that includes my parents, brother, sister-in-law, my husband and his parents, sister and brother-in-law — to be there. My father has been unwell and I wanted him to be there at this important moment.”
“It will be a glorious moment. But not without my father!”
But now her father is well and Ash has informed the French government to prepare for the ceremony.
She says, “My father will have to brave the long flight. There’s a long list of dos and don’ts for him. But worth it, don’t you think.”
Congratulations Ash!!!
