Dancing is not only a form of movement but also of expression. Aishwarya Rai surely does it best, what with a graceful body and equally expressive eyes. Here is a tribute to her dance numbers over the years…
The Rhythm is Gonna Get You: The jhatkas, the matkas and the contortions - nobody does it better than twinkle-toes Ash. Here's looking at you, lady, and the dance numbers that have lit up our lives
Anil Kapoor was no match at all for her snake hip moves in Taal's Ramta Jogi
On Fire: Her elaborate moves spoke as much of her sorrow as her ocean-deep eyes in Kahin Aag Lage.
The hills came alive with her rain dance in Taal Se Taal Mila

Two to Tango: Ash matched Madhuri step for step in Dola Re from Devdas
Move Your Body: Its hard to decide what zapped us more, her dance moves or her killer bod in Krazzy Kiya Re. Mercy, please?
