Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan honours acheivers of Lavasa Women's Drive 2011

She honoured recovering cancer patients and other acheivers at a glittering ceremony here last evening.

The Lavasa Women's Drive was about celebration of the different aspects of life with strength, belief and conviction, along with keeping the faith, Ms Rai-Bachchan said.

"Diseases like cancer should not be feared, and the ceremony has been a humbling experience. They (patients) have been an inspiration for their sheer courage to wake up everyday and conquer cancer," she said.

She further said Indian women need to undertake regular tests for cancer.

"Living the life of a celebrity is one filled with moments of joy and pride on a daily basis. I believe in celebrating the gift of life on a daily basis and sharing it with somebody," she added.
