Steve Martin sends love and prayers to Aishwarya Rai following her hospitalisation

Aishwarya Rai, one of Bollywood’s biggest stars who has made waves in the West as well has been getting an outpouring of love and prayers from across the globe.

The diva’s Pink Panther costar and Hollywood actor Steve Martin has stepped forth sending love to the actor after news broke out about her being moved to a hospital along with daughter Aaradhya over breathing complaints.

“I’m wishing Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and her daughter a speedy recovery. She was such an elegant and delightful acting partner in Pink Panther,” tweeted the Cheaper By the Dozen actor.

Aishwarya had essayed the role of Sonia Solandres, a criminology expert in Pink Panther 2 alongside Martin’s character of Inspector Clouseau.

Earlier on Friday, it was reported that the mother-daughter duo was hospitalized after they had earlier spent a week in home quarantine following their COVID-19 diagnosis.

“Both Aishwarya and Aaradhya were admitted to Nanavati hospital today. They are fine. Aishwarya needed medical attention,” sources told the Press Trust of India.

On July 12, Abhishek Bachchan had announced that his wife and daughter too had tested positive after he and Amitabh Bachchan contracted the disease.

“Aishwarya and Aaradhya have also tested COVID-19 positive. They will be self quarantining at home. The BMC has been updated of their situation and are doing the needful. The rest of the family including my Mother have tested negative. Thank you all for your wishes and prayers.”
