Amid divorce rumours, Aishwarya Rai's video on how to tackle street harassment has gone viral. The video was taken as part of L'Oreal Paris campaign.
Aishwarya, who is the brand ambassador of L'Oreal Paris, says in the video, "Street harassment. How do you deal with it? Avoid eye contact? No."
The actor then goes on to say, "Look the problem directly in the eyes. Hold your head high. Feminine and feminist. My body, my worth."
She urges the viewer to never compromise their worth or doubt themselves. "Stand up for your worth. Don't blame your dress or your lipstick. Street harassment is never your fault," Aishwarya adds.
In the caption of her post, she wrote, "On this International Day for the elimination of violence against women, join @lorealparis's Stand Up against street harassment training program. We're all worth it." The post was accompanied by the hashtag, #WeStandUp.
Reacting to her video message, her followers flooded the comment section with their opinions. "Well said .Proud of you fighting for a cause which has been of grave concern for women and the society," said a follower.
"She shares very selected videos & photos on her social media but they are very sensible," said one user while another pointed out, "Wow aishwarya you are most inspirational and powerful woman."
This come amid rumours about Aishwarya's divorce from Abhishek Bachchan. In a recent interview with The Hindu, Abhishek thanked Aishwarya for supporting the family and being a responsible and selfless mother.
The rumours initially made rounds on social media in July when Aishwarya and Aaradhya attended the wedding of Ananta Ambani and Radhika Merchant without the Bachchan family.
The couple got married in 2007 and have 13-year-old daughter, Aaradhya. Abhishek was absent from the photos of Aaradhya's 13th birthday, which was celebrated recently.
