Aishwarya rai was kissed by someone real hard.....well.. stung by bee
NEW DELHI. Feb 22. (AP): Bollywood's leading lady Aishwarya Rai has to be thick-skinned to deal with all the attention she receives. But she didn't expect to need thick skin to act in her latest movie too.

Shooting of ``Umrao Jaan'' was held up for several hours after the former beauty queen was stung by a bee during a scene, the Hindustan Times newspaper reported Wednesday.

Cast members were shocked when Rai screamed during a take after a bee stung her on the hand, the report said.

Director J. P. Dutta postponed the shoot, but Rai quickly recovered and came back to finish the scene, the newspaper said.

Rai could not immediately be reached for comment.

Rai plays a poet and courtesan in the period film ``Umrao Jaan,'' a story about her search for love.

A former Miss World, Rai is a superstar in India. She has made more than 30 movies, served on the Cannes Film Festival jury, and features in international ad campaigns for leading jewelry, cosmetic and cola companies

So sad to hear that the bee had to lose his/her life. What a way to end life !!

On a serious note, I say whats the big deal about a bee stinging her. For goodness sake, it only a bee and a army of bee !!!

its a kiss of death only who truly loves do this kiss and die. the bee must have been in love with miss Rai.

Good to see our Rai lass doing so well. Hopefully we will see Limbu, Gurung, Chettri, Tamang, Newar, Bahun, Kami, Damai, Sherpa in the same circle.
