Sporting an au naturale look without any accessories in a new slim avatar, Aishwarya was photographed by ace lens man Farrokh Chothia for the October issue of the magazine, dubbed as the Glamour issue.

The shoot was done in London, the last leg of the Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan's “Unforgettable” world tour that concluded recently.

“Doing the Vogue cover was a promise I made to Anaita (Shroff Adajania) right from the time she joined the Vogue. Anaita was having a baby and she wanted me to do it before she delivers,” Aishwarya told the NDTV news channel from London.

She added: “I was to do this shoot last month but I fell ill before I left for the world tour. So, we crossed notes and managed to do it on time in London just after we finished almost the last show of the tour.”

The actress' make-up was done by Denise Rabor with hairstylist Josh Wood who couldn't stop praising her beauty.

Incidentally, Aishwarya is presently in Peru, shooting for her Tamil film Enthiren, with southern superstar Rajnikanth.
