In a heartwarming revelation, veteran hairstylist Maria recently recounted her unexpected and touching reunion with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, two to three years after their collaboration on the iconic 2002 film ‘Devdas.’
Maria, who styled Aishwarya’s hair for the memorable song “Silsila Ye Chahat Ka,” shared her story in an interview with Bollywood Now.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s portrayal of Parvati (Paro) in Sanjay Leela Bhansali‘s ‘Devdas’ is still remembered for its stunning costumes, hairstyles, and makeup.In the song “Silsila Ye Chahat Ka,” Aishwarya danced gracefully with a burning ‘diya’ in her hands, her wavy locks adding to the visual beauty of the scene. Behind this memorable look was Maria, whose work contributed significantly to the film’s visual splendor.
Maria recalled her encounter with Aishwarya in Greece, where she was initially unsure if the actress would remember her. “Ek din main Greece gayi thi to udhar Aishwarya Rai aur Abhishek Bachchan aaye the. (Wahan par) seedhiyan thi, thoda andhera tha. Woh neeche utar rahi thi aur mai upar chaddh rahi thi. 2-3 saal baad mili woh mujhe,” Maria shared, describing the moment she saw Aishwarya and Abhishek on the stairs at a shoot location.
Initially, Maria doubted whether Aishwarya would recognize her after so many years. “Maine dekha nahin, ki Aishwarya Rai mere ko kahan pehchanegi,” she admitted. However, to her surprise and delight, Aishwarya immediately called her by her name. “She called me Maria,” Maria recounted, her voice filled with emotion.
