Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has never looked so visibly depressed before

The first poster of Omang Kumar’s upcoming movie Sarbjit was launched in the national capital yesterday. The event was attended by actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who plays Sarabjit’s sister Dalbir Kaur in the movie, along with Nitin Gadkari and Amit Shah, eminent politicians from BJP.

First, it was Randeep Hooda’s look in the movie that had created news, because apparently, Hooda had lost 18kgs for his role in just 28 days. And now, Aishwarya’s de-glam avatar in the movie is creating a stir in the industry, as she looks desolate and yet determined to get her brother back.


The poster shows Rai in spectacles and sporting gray hair, while in the background, we can see Hooda, as Sarbjit, in the prison waiting for justice.

The movie has been directed by Mary Kom fame Omang Kumar, and also stars Richa Chadda, last seen in Masaan, as Sarbjit’s wife.

A few months back, a few images showing Aishwarya as Dalbir Kaur had leaked online, but those pics couldn’t give us a clear idea of what her character would be like. Guess, a clear picture is worth more than a thousand words.

Talking of the resemblance that her character from Sarbjit bears to the real Dalbir Kaur, we didn’t find much satisfaction there, and coming from Omung Kumar, who had successfully transformed Priyanka Chopra into a girl from Mongolian face for playing MC Mary Kom in her biopic, this is a bit disappointing.

Here is how Dalbir Kaur actually looks like.

Let’s hope that even though her character is not made to look like the real Dalbir Kaur, Aishwarya does justice to her role and we get to see the pain that Dalbir Kaur went through via her expressions.
