The gorgeous Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is among the few crop of current Indian actors to have a considerable following among the young Chinese in the sub-provincial district of Shenzhen.
Just opposite to the majestic hotel Pavilion on the Huaqiang Road is a huge L'Oreal hoarding featuring Ash.
"She's beautiful. I pass through this road every day and never fail to have a look at the hoarding," says Zu Shan, who works as a marketing executive of an advertising company.
Ash is the brand ambassador of L'Oreal's cosmetic products.
"Aishwarya is a good actress. I have seen most of her movies," he says.
Zu's favourite male star is Abhishek Bachchan . "The two make a great couple," he says.
Zeng Fangjun also adores Ash's beauty as well as her acting talents.
"She is quite talented. I got to watch some of her movies on the local cable network," says the communications manager of an IT firm.
Local channels like CCTV feature Indian movies with Chinese subtitles.
