If there is one star whom millions of people want to see on social media, it is definitely Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
Fulfilling the wish of scores of fans and followers, the 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' star will be making her much-awaited debut on Instagram.
Ahead of the Cannes Film Festival 2018, the 44-year-old is all set to expand her digital imprints by making her presence felt on the photo-sharing app on Friday.
"Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has always been a private person and her presence on the social media platform is basically her way of thanking all her well wishers who have been hiving her so much love through the start of her career; a way to directly connect with them," revealed a source.
A source stated to DNA, "Ash has a huge fan base on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Her fans have been waiting for her to be on social media for a long time. It’s due to constant requests from her well-wishers, admirers and fans from all around the globe that she opted to start an official handle to keep them abreast of her life and projects, etc."
The source added, "Ash’s closest buddies from the industry, which include Karan Johar, Manish Malhotra and others, have been telling her to join social media. Even her team persuaded her a lot. Before her 17th Cannes appearance, the L’Oréal team also discussed this with her. Finally, she decided to go ahead."
On the work front, Aishwarya will be next seen in 'Fanne Khan' opposite Anil Kapoor along with Rajkummar Rao.
