Rai became a full-time 1 model after her year’s duties as Miss World. She is still called the most beautiful woman in the world. She is also multi-lingual and can speak five languages. She made her movie debut 2 in ‘Iruvar,’ a 1997 Tamil film. It didn’t do very well. Her first commercial success came a year later in another Tamil movie, ‘Jeans’.
雷在获得世界小姐殊荣的一整年中，她成为了一名全职模特。如今，人们还把她称之为全球最美丽的女人。她还能够讲5门语言。1997年，她出演了她的第一部电影作品《舞蹈王子》，这是一部泰米尔语电影。这部影片并没有掀起太大的波澜。而一年之后，她出演的另一部泰米尔语电影《善良的谎言》却让她取得了商业上的成功。
The Bollywood movie industry took an instant like to her and she starred in several very successful Hindi movies. In 1999 she won the Filmfare Best Actress Award. She has acted in over 40 movies in the past decade in Hindi, Tamil, Bengali and English. She also landed the lead female role in 2009’s ‘Pink Panther 2’movie in Hollywood.
