Aishwarya Rai is one of the most beautiful actresses of her generation. She made her acting debut in 1997 with Mani Ratnam's Tamil film, Iruvar. Since then, she has worked in one after the other films and also etched a special place in the hearts of her fans with her impeccable dancing skills. Among many others, it was her dance number, Kajra Re, in the 2005 blockbuster film, Bunty Aur Babli, alongside her husband, Abhishek Bachchan and father-in-law, Amitabh Bachchan that was simply one of a kind.
Now, a Reddit user shared an old video of Anushka Sharma, in which she was seen grooving to Aishwarya Rai’s iconic dance number, Kajra Re. In the video, Anushka was seen performing the dance at an award show and doing her best while grooving to Aishwarya's hook steps.

Moreover, she completed her look with glam makeup, including blushed cheeks, kohl-rimmed eyes, glossy lipstick and an open hairdo.
