I love Shah Rukh Khan. He’s a beautiful man.” Bellucci added, “He’s sensual. He’s yummy.” The actress further added, “I love Aishwarya Rai Bachchan too. She’s the actress with the beautiful green eyes. I had the privilege of meeting her in Cannes. She’s sweet.” When asked if she watched Hindi movies, Bellucci stated, “I’ve watched quite a lot of Hindi films. Indian films are all over the world. My favourite film is Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen.” Monica Bellucci at the time added, “I loved the way it was filmed and I wish I had been part of it. I’d love to work with an Indian director but it depends on the role I’m offered.
