It is rather ironic that most of those whom I have come across take Aish for a Bengali, while she is very much a member of the Bunt Community of Mangalore. Wonder why it is so!!

Rai is a surname in Coorg (kodagu) (Karnataka) while Roy is in Bengal which is more popular. People who do differentiate this take it for granted that Rais are from Bengal.
