Actor Aishwarya Rai Bachchan walked the red carpet at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival and closer home the star’s old video as a model surfaced on the internet, where she walked the ramp as a model. The video, shared on Reddit, mentioned that the clip was from the time Aishwarya walked the ramp as a Pierre Cardin model at The Oberoi Hotel, in New Delhi, on May 3, 1994.

The video shows five models walking the ramp, with three in front, as Aishwarya is in the middle. She walks the ramp confidently and with grace throughout the 38 second video. The ramp walk took place months before she won the Miss World in November, the same year.

The comments were all praise for Aishwarya, with many appreciating the “natural” look of the models. “When can we get this kind of beauty back? I’m sick of everyone looking like a Kardashian now,” one comment read, while another user tried to guess the other models in the video, “Pooja Batra? Gayathri Oberoi? Mughda Godse? And Queenie Dhody.”

Aishwarya started modelling since her college days, appearing in several television commercials way before she entered the pageantry. Post her crowning as the Miss World, she made her acting debut in Mani Ratnam’s 1997 Tamil film Iruvar, followed by her Bollywood debut the same year with Aur Pyaar Ho Gaya.
