Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Sonam Kapoor’s rivalry dates back years — from 2009 when Sonam signed on as the face of L’Oreal, which until then was ARB’s territory. Now that Sonam has got a big thumbs up at Cannes and Ash faced criticism for some of her choices, the younger actress jumps to Mrs B’s defence, “The whole idea of fashion and make-up is for people to discuss it and I guess she wanted to be discussed. She achieved what she wanted to achieve with it, which I think is great. I don’t think she walked for L’Oreal that day... There was an Amul ad on it, people were discussing it. I think it was great to do it on a 15th year, it’s cool. She was trending everywhere.” Sonam added that she has worn purple lipstick in the past. “I have even done black for a shoot!”
