Former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan hospitalized with COVID-19

Former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan — long touted as the worlds’ most beautiful woman — has been hospitalized in India with COVID-19 along with her eight-year-old daughter.

The Bollywood superstar’s entire family is now in Mumbai’s Nanavati Hospital. Last week it was announced her husband Abhishek Bachchan and father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan, also famous actors, had been hospitalized.

Aishwarya Rai, who starred in “The Pink Panther 2,” had previously been isolating at home until her conditions worsened.

On Friday India surpassed over 1 million COVID-19 cases, making it the third most infected country behind Brazil and the United States, according to the BBC.
