For the past several months the Indian press have been speculating that Abhishek Bachchan, the son of India's most famous and popular actor Amitabh, and starlet Aishwarya Rai were either engaged or, in some of the wilder stories, already secretly married.  On January 14 the couple finally made it official and announced that Abhishek had popped the question at the New York premiere of their movie Guru, in which they play husband and wife.

Guru isn't out on DVD yet, and it didn't make it to Topeka theaters, but you can see the two together in Kuch Naa Kaho and Umrao Jaan.

Aishwarya is best known in America for her role in Bride and Prejudice, a remake of Jane Austen’s novel.  She was also in a remake of the Austen novel Sense and Sensibility several years before, titled I Have Found It.
