Aishwarya is the youngest in the Rai family. Her father, Krishnaraj Rai, was initially in the Indian Navy; he later joined the merchant navy. Aishwarya's mother, Vrinda Rai, was a homemaker. The siblings would miss their father when he had to go on long voyages.

Aishwarya Rai did her schooling at Arya Vidya Mandir, in Santacruz, Mumbai.
