Life after marriage is wonderful: Aishwarya


Life after marriage is "wonderful" for the new Mrs Bachchan who is currently on a honeymoon with her actor-husband Abhishek and gets ready to return to work in a week's time.
"I am feeling wonderful. I am very happy. By the grace of God, everything is wonderful," Aishwarya Bachchan nee Rai said in Cannes where she is set to walk the red carpet with her husband at the film festival.
In perhaps her first interview after her marriage on April 19, the Bollywood actress said, "It's all things good. It's a blessing. And it's a wonderful family," she said, going on to describe Abhishek as "superlative and fantastic".
Aishwarya said she had found wonderful parents in her parents-in-law Amitabh and Jaya.
Asked if she had changed after marriage, she said, "No. I am just a normal girl in a wonderful time of my life, a very special time. It's fantastic. It's all things good." Aishwarya said she was at the Cannes Film Festival for a day after which she would continue with her holiday that is at its fag end.
She said she was looking forward to working with husband Abhishek and father-in-law Amitabh in `Sarkar II'. "...Which will be a kind of working with family as we are all related now. It's always a privilege to work with actors like Abhishek and an iconic legend like my father-in-law," Aishwarya said.
The Bachchans will also be seen together in Karan Johar's forthcoming project.
