Aishwarya Rai is increasingly dressing and behaving like Rekha, her mogra gajras are becoming a recurring feature in the glossy lady`s accessories. At the launch of the prét collection of Devdas outfits at Pyramid in Crosswords, Ash, dressed in a gold-bordered black saree had her hair adorned with Rekha`s trademark mogra flowers. `She`s got a hive of mogras,` shouted a fan.
Amisha Patel, in a lacy brown-black number, was overshadowed by the on-her-way Diva. Amisha tried to be friendly to Aishwarya, who was giving her the usual `plastic smile` treatment.
At the Devdas premiere, the Rekha-Ash connection was at its strongest. Rekha went out of her way to compliment the light-eyed beauty by kissing her hand. But watchers say that the older actress stole Ash`s thunder. Rekha, in her characteristic gold and kanjivaram was easily more charismatic than the wilting Ash in pale pink and crystals.
