She is scared of people but she can tame exotic horses and ride them. She is always around to save the prince, but no one knows where she lives. She looks fragile, but she is also like the wind and cannot be captured by force. #PonniyinSelvan2 #AishwaryaRai #ManiRatnam pic.twitter.com/Zrp8x1qAmP
NANDHINI

Men who are ensnared by her say that her beauty is her biggest weapon. But what they overlook and eventually pay for, is a sharper weapon that she is constantly honing — her mind. #AishwaryaRai #AishwaryaRaiBachchan #PonniyinSelvan2 #PonniyinSelvan pic.twitter.com/0hJSPjVVhj
