Aishwarya's hairstylist for Silsila Ye Chahat Ka recently spoke about the actress' generosity.

In a recent interview with Bollywood Now, veteran hairstylist Maria spilled the beans about collaborating with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Devdas. Maria recalled working with the actress on one song, Silsila Ye Chahat Ka.

The hairstylist reminisced about visiting Greece for a shoot wherein she met Aishwarya Rai after a few years.

"Ek din main Greece gayi thi to udhar Aishwarya Rai aur Abhishek Bachchan aaye the. (Wahan par) seedhiyan thi, thoda andhera tha. Woh neeche utar rahi thi aur mai upar chaddh rahi thi. 2-3 saal baad mili woh mujhe (I once went to Greece. Aishwarya and Abhishek were also there. I saw Aishwarya on the stairs. I met her after 2-3 years)," Maria said.

"Maine dekha nahin, ki Aishwarya Rai mere ko kahan pehchanegi (I believed Aishwarya won't recognize me)," she shared while adding that the actress called her by her name, Maria.

Aishwarya's hairstylist from Devdas was initially unsure about talking to her, thinking the actress wouldn't reciprocate. However, she was elated that Aishwarya recognized her.

Apart from Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Devdas starred Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit. Actors like Jackie Shroff, Kirron Kher, Smita Jaykar, and Dina Pathak played crucial roles in the movie.

SRK played the role of Devdas Mukherjee, a rich man who returns to India after graduating from London. Aishwarya was cast as Paro, his childhood friend and neighbor. They both are in love and want to marry each other. However, disputes in their families separate them forever.
