Aishwarya Rai Bachchan on living with her parents
In 2004, Aishwarya appeared as a guest on The Late Show with David Letterman. The interview is often remembered for her poised, confident, and witty responses to Letterman's questions, especially one remark that stood out. During the interaction, Letterman asked Aishwarya why she still lives with her parents as an adult, a cultural norm in India but something less common in the West, to which Aishwarya replied, "It’s fine to live with your parents because it’s also common in India that we don’t have to take appointments to meet our parents."

It’s nice; it’s just rooted."

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan on moving to Hollywood
In 2007, when she was asked about making the move to Hollywood, she replied, "Ek minute, maine kab kaha? Kaunse interview mein? Aap mujhe ye interview dikhaiye. Phir hum baat karenge. (One minute, when did I say that? In which interview? Show me this interview. Then we will talk.) If you have to ask questions, go ahead, but don't attribute statements to me. I first worked in a Tamil film. I work in Hindi films, I work in Bengali films, and I am working in some English films. This does not mean I am shifting anywhere or part of any other industry. It's really broadening your experiences in cinema.”

When the reporter asked, "Aaradhya is always with you. She’s already learning from the best," Aishwarya quipped "WOAH, she is my daughter. She is always with me." The beauty queen did not engage any further and simply walked away.
