Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s modeling contract from 1992 goes viral, guess how much she was paid?
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was a well-known face as a model in the 1990s before becoming a true blue Bollywood star. Three decades later, a copy of her modeling invoice has surfaced on the internet, and fans have a lot to say about it.
According to the contract, which was signed on May 23, 1992, the actress was paid Rs 1,500 for a magazine shoot. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who was “about 18” at the time, agreed to work as a model for a magazine catalogue shoot for a company called Krupa Kreations. The single-page contract, signed in Mumbai, bears the actress’ signature.
A user shared the contract along with the caption, “Aishwarya Rai got paid Rs 1,500 for one day’s work in 1992. I wasn’t even born then!”
One Redditor acknowledged that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was always a star, saying, “In 1992 my father’s income was Rs 8,000 per month which was sufficient to run our house of 5. This is massive money for a day’s work for an 18-year-old.”
Another user mentioned, “One day? My father was working for a month for this.”
After the contract went viral, photographer Vimal Upadhayay shared images from a vintage photoshoot featuring Aishwarya Rai Bachchan on social media. Sonali Bendre, Niki Aneja, and Tejaswini Kolhapure also appear in the photographs.
Along with a series of photos taken for a magazine catalogue featuring salwar kameez looks, Upadhayay wrote on Tuesday, “Hello, yesterday I celebrated the 30th anniversary of the fashion catalogue published by me. Aishwarya Rai, Sonali Bendre, Niki Aneja, and Tejaswini Kolhapure were few of the models posed for this catalogue.”
After walking the red carpet at the 75th Cannes Film Festival, Aishwarya returned to Mumbai with Abhishek Bachchan and their daughter Aaradhya Bachchan. This year marked the actress’s 20th appearance at Cannes. In addition to her stunning appearances at the festival, the diva made headlines for her family outings.
