Aishwarya Rai speaks out against domestic violence 2006-06-21
Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai's new film on domestic violence has prompted an emotional recollection of the violence she suffered at the hands of an ex-boyfriend.
Controversial movie PROVOKED explores a Punjabi woman's fight against abuse by killing her bullying husband, and her subsequent punishment by the courts.
And Rai found the project the perfect vehicle to explore her own turbulent romantic history.
The 32-year-old says, "We're all extremely aware of such violence and it's something I've experienced, too.
"That's one of the reasons I wanted to be involved in this project."
