Aishwarya Rai Bachchan got emotional during the national anthem, going by a video that has been doing the rounds on social media. The actress was attending the IMC WE Exhibition 2018 in Mumbai, along with other prominent personalities such as Shabana Azmi and Sonu Nigam.

In a video shared on Bollywood fan accounts, Aishwarya stands for the national anthem, and is visibly teary-eyed. As it ends, she cries more openly.

She even wipes away a few tears, while others huddle around her for a photograph.

In 2017, Aishwarya became the first female actress to hoist the national flag at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM), Australia's annual celebration of film from India and the subcontinent. "Thank you so much Melbourne, thank you everyone for giving us such a moment of pride and happiness with so much love and warmth. Celebrating our 70th Independence Day will forever be such a beautiful memory for me and my dearest Aaradhya," she had said.

On the work front, Aishwarya recently starred in Fanney Khan, which bombed at the box office. She has signed Anurag Kashyap's film Gulab Jamun, where she will share screenspace with hubby Abhishek Bachchan.
