Aishwarya Rai Bachchan returns to face the camera nine months after giving birth to Beti B, Aaradhya, according to a report in Times of India.

The last time the actress faced the camera was when she was six months pregnant and it was for a commercial. Post-delivery, she chose to stay away from the arclights completely so she could be with her bundle of joy.

A source revealed, "Ash did a photo-shoot for a jewellery brand. Having lost oodles of weight, there is a marked glow on her face and she looks even more ravishing now."

Shrikumar, who shot the commercial in Mumbai said, "This is my first ad with Ash. What impressed me about her was a passion for detailing." Adds Shrikumar, "There are a few interesting underwater shots in the ad too. For me, it has been the most memorable experience shooting with her."
