Aishwarya Rai Savage Reply to David Letterman Nailed it!! 

Damn I'm not Indian. I am Caribbean but I so love that response " we dont have to make appointments to meet our parents" We share the same sentiment

The fact that as fluent as she is in English, she did not mention that in her list of languages she speaks. 😂😂

Respect goes both ways.. She was being gentle and polite.. Untill the sarcasm 😂

The US audience was very supportive when she said we don't have to take appointment to meet our parents 😂

She is not only beautiful she is very intelligent

She didn't even consider english as a language 😂😂😂

She questioned back intelligently with ' How did you get into it' . A confident and bold actress. She did it for the first time. Wonderful!

Haha! He tried to make her look stupid and she made him look silly!! She’s cool!

"So how did you get into doing this?" was a real shade y'all...love boss lady Aish😂

I need that kind of confidence, just nailed it

I have never seen this kind of interview earlier..!! Excellent reply by Aiswarya Rai of every question!! Proud to be an indian !!🙏🇮🇳❣️👍

He was trying hard to make her look dumb but she was so fluent and spontenous with her answers that made him startle, I wish to ve this kinda confidence

Don't mess with an educated indian diva....definitely she will own you...🖤 Good Job queen

Beneath that absolutely gorgeous figure she resides in, there is an even better personality she has developed. What a great answer to the question about living with the parents ! I can't understand how she was able to grasp the insult hidden in the question and then give back the insult with her answer so quickly. A proud ambassador for India. She really brought respect for Indians worldwide. I had the pleasure of once meeting her in Melbourne.

Letterman was straight up rude to her and he is ignorant. He was condescending to her and Aishwarya Rai showed her class, cleverness and keen sense of honor. Brilliant and beautiful lady, Aishwarya Rai.

This was happening for the first time in the history for an actress who was from India and met interviews. She represents India with a Super Dignified Manner. She deserves enormous love, respect and honour. She's my favourite person and professional. Love her the great, most and best 💖💖💖💖💖

Its easy to laugh away, but its tough to counter & stand up...and She is the Toughest.

It was a planned humiliation for outsider Aishwarya Rai by the bullying media guys. She was too smart in tackling them in a graceful way, yet giving slaps in answers

I'm from Trinidad and remember watching Indian movies since I was barely 10years old with my grandma. Saturday nights and every Sunday at midday. Loved the musicals and I love how she said it's part of their culture, true every hindu festivals has songs and that makes them stand out. Love those Indian movies and the songs are lovely it wouldn't be the same without it.

I’m not India,but in our culture we love to stay with our parents and taking care of our parents like they did when we were young,we don’t take our parents to housing homes for elderly like Americans do to their parents…it’s like God gave us blessings by looking after our own family and their happiness..

:-) It is not a savage reply. It is a sweet and charming reply of a cultured Indian lady.

She is classy and clever.

Very smart lady! Beautiful and smart. Kudos to her for bringing Letterman back to decent limits every time he attempted impudence.

Devdas as a movie was also made in Bengali language. It is originally written in Bengali language by the renowned author of all ages , Saratchandra Chattopadhyay who through his simple words narrated the complex yet touching emotional condition, position, contribution and role of women in the then society of India from different aspects of life.

It's Devdaas not Dave Dust...😂 In captions...

She destroyed him in 5 th language 😂

Have different level of respect for her now ❤️

We live with our parents to take care of them and keep them happy.

He tried making her look stupid but she ended up making him look silly instead. But for real though, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with living with your parents as a grown adult if you’re still working and being independent. In fact I think it’s even normal in India to keep living with your parents until you get married so that you can help look after them.

Her real savage moment was "so how did you get into this?" 😂 🎤💥 By the way, she failed to mention English as one of her languages, which she clearly speaks very well so that makes 5!

Best reply regarding parents living with son

3:14 burning moment 🔥🔥

What a classic putdown!David Letterman got it right between the eyes..... more than he bargained for!! 😂😂😂

That's what i like about India..the parents and their children live together..it is respectful to take care of our Elders which is something other countries can learn from that ❤

I am 40, I live with my parents ,my dad at 82 and having hard time getting out of bed even to pee .I get up 4 /5 times at night when he calls me hold him and help just to pee coz he cant get up by himself . This is family values .Asian family values ,we dont let our parents to die alone

I gotta say hands down that Aishwarya Rai is one of the most beautiful woman alive today.

Aishwarya Rai answered well. She wasnt intimidated by Letterman. In fact he was on the backfoot. All Hail.

She is absolutely right and the answer is wonderful. I have practical experience in this issue. When I was studying in soviet university and my course mate was a German and a good friend. Once he invited me to Germany during the summer holidays. After a few days of roaming in the city, he planned to go to his parents in the village. He called up and fixed the date. Before leaving the village at the lunch table, he put some money in and i noticed. On the way to the town, I asked him about that money. He is in a simple manner and very cool and answered that he paid for our food. Bcoz they live in retirement and what we had is over their budget. I was shocked and never asked anything on this subject after we even returned back to university. After 40 years,still I am, Finding difficulties to understand his attitude towards his parents. 😢

In india we dont have to get appointment to meet our parents for dinner is a golden quote uttered by our beautiful sister. ❤❤❤

Not only in India but almost in every Asian country children live with their parents.

For all those who are saying that she didn't even mention English as a language Lemme clear it for you all Go to 2:19 she said she can speak about 4 languages (INDIAN) she said she can speak about 4 INDIAN LANGUAGES. But I loved the reply to that living with family question!!! Aishwarya Rai is just epic!!! 🔥

Beauty with brain Aishwarya 💖

Aishwarya is witty and Dave is cool and hilarious. Great interview and exchange. 😂👍

She won miss world for a reason clearly 🔥🔥

Gosh, she is so humble, she didn't mention the fact she was the winner of Miss. World 1994 and started to act soon after that.

I love this version of her

the smile before she says " we don"t have to take appointments to meet our parents". added the extra layer of "Imma get to you"

She is epitome of confidence,always❤

The way she started roasting him one after the other, lol

I compare Ash's answer with that famous 'slap' by a man to an aggressive Kangaroo . 🤣🤣🤣👏🏼👏🏼

She nailed it!! Love it.

I am from Bangladesh. We already knew her for ages. But never like this. She absolutely gorgeous and same time super intelligent. Loved her response.

David Letterman got a chance to realize how old he is.

She looks so young and vibrant! ❤

She is very very beautiful. Definition of beautiful.❤❤❤

Those questions were apparently basic. It just shows he does not intend to engage at a higher deeper level. He could have sparked a conversation by asking about her experiences working in different film industries outside India and where she sees the industry going in future. I expected more out of this dialogue.

He was trying to make fun of her but it turned out to be a joke on him😂😂😂

What a punch back for his sarcastic questions

Cnt get enough of this interview

Thank you, gracias. Very very very true we do not need any appointments for dinner, lunch etc etc with our parents. Thank you

She's so elegant

That's not her fault. Those days we have been taught like that hindi is our national language. Our education system lied to us.

I loved and appreciated the way she answered this man, yeh we feel shame to take appointment meeting our parents.

It can be easily checked that Hindi and English are the two official languages of India as per the constitution. The Indian constitution does not define any national language. However, the term official language and national language mean the same thing in many countries and hence some people think that Hindi is the national language. So constitutionally, English and Hindi are the official languages. Informally, they may or may not be regarded as National languages as per one's preference.

she's pretty cool and very beautiful love her confident

the captions pronouncing devdaas as dave dust 💀🫤

I love Indian culture! They combine the best of what it means to be human! A sophisticated understanding of the nature of being and our relationship to the divine, beautiful arts practices, flavorful foods, warm hospitality, respect for the elders and end of life, matriarchy, reason and advanced thought in academic disciplines… Indians to me do both celebration/communal ritual equally with contemplative/intellectual observance.

Her responses are EPIC, including all her reactions🎉🎉

Not only most beautiful woman in the world but also she is very clever woman.

She is one stunning lady. Great sense of humour too.

3:48 yeaaaah ,,,expression of her face❤

I loved letterman show and his unique style of stammering in the interview😄

I lost it when the subtitles said ''dave dust'' for ''Devdas''

Beauty with sense of humour.😮

Hindi is not a national language of India it is official language but she is done good ❤❤

lovely lady. She didn't count her fluent English in her languages. Makes 5. Totally unfamiliar with Bollywood.

It's not a savage answer, she is telling the cultural differences.....

She owned the show

There is so much difference between Aishwarya then and now.. Was so bold and carefree, now she is so closed..

Omg she is beautiful we all know that...but love her intelligence and presence of mind so so so much!!!❤❤

He didn't let her complete half her answers man🙂

The confidence she had when she said hindi is our national language even though it isn't... that got off guard!!! But love her accent really...!!!

Thank you ma'am proud to be an Indian .❤

She's Beauty with brain

I like the cheekiness and leg-pulling of this girl.

This is why i love her so much💕

Well said Aishwarya..... 😇👍👌👏

Can we take a moment to appreciate the extraordinary literature of the renowned bengali writer Sharatchandra Chattopadhyay.

I love this lady, she well knows how to give a befitting reply.

In India’s desi culture, even when your parents grow old and come to live with you in a house purchaser by you, you still say that you live with your parents. This culture is mostly lost in the west aping metros of India but other smaller townships and villagers still practice such 1000’s of years old values. Old is gold after all.

3:15 most savage reply🤘🏻

Love from Dallas Texas.

The fact is singing was a common entertainment in the evenings in villages and the grounding in indian classical music was more common with ordinary folks. People enjoy it and Bollywood filled that need with very good songwriters, music directors and singers of all genres. It added sale ability to the movie.

5:26-What is the reference to Happy Days Reunion here? I don't understand that-can somebody explain?

I love how she hit back at that jab of disrespect - silly statement to make by the host

When salman saw this video, he was laughing and sobbing at the same time.

God bless India!

This is the best of her beauty I have ever seen... So beautiful

First she said हिंदी because it's our राष्ट्रभाषा then she said मराठी because she lives in Maharashtra her career made in this state and it's language means बोलीभाषा मराठी ❤❤❤. Then born place मातृभाषा तुलू........large respect, really I love it ❤❤❤

Parents are everything ❤
