Aishwarya Rai Bachchan won’t make a comeback

August 18, 2013

Aishwarya_RaiAug 18: There were rumors that Aishwarya was approached by Sanjay Leela Bhansali for doing a special song in his upcoming movie ‘Ram Leela’. But now it seems that Bhansali is not keen on taking Aishwarya and has roped in somebody else for the dance number.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali was asked about it. He said, “First it was Sonakshi Sinha, then Madhuri Dixit. Now it's Aishwarya. None of the three rumours has any truth to it.”

He did not divulge the details but said further, “All the rumours surrounding who has been approached for the special song are utterly ridiculous and nowhere close to true...We have already finalised a very big name and we will be shortly making an announcement of the same. Hope this puts rumours to rest.”

Aishwarya has worked with Bhansali in ‘Hum Dil DeChuke Sanam’, ‘Devdas’ and ‘Guzaarish’.

Aishwarya took a break from movies while she was on family’s way in 2010. She had put on lots of weight during her pregnancy. She then gradually reduced but is still continuing her sabbatical break.

A source close to Aishwarya said, “At the moment Aaradhya (Aishwarya and Abhishek Bachchan's daughter) is Ash's one and only priority. Yes, she is slowly looking at scripts again, and some very good ones. But you know what? She gets tempted, and then again she decides now is not the time. She doesn't want to miss out a single moment in Aaradhya's growing-up years.”

The source also revealed that Aishwarya Rai is showing interest in the remake of 1983 released movie ‘Masoom’. The movie will be directed by Bedabrata Pain and produced by Himesh Reshammiya. Aishwarya is showing interest as the makers of this movie are willing to adjust the schedule according to her convenience.

On being asked about Aishwarya’s item song for ‘Ram Leela’, the source said, “But an item song? No way.”

‘Ram Leela’ is a Hindi romantic movie, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. The lead actors of the movie are Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone. The movie is based on the epic love story of Romeo and Juliet. The love story was set during violent times. The movie will be released on 15th November.

Sanjay had problem finalizing the female lead cast of the movie. He wanted to cast Kareena Kapoor. But Kareena backed out citing monetary and date issues. Then, the movie was offered to Priyanka Chopra who also withdrew due to unknown reason. Finally Deepika was signed for the movie.

Los Angeles, Jan 9: Actors Salma Hayek and Tiffany Haddish are hopeful about the future for women in Hollywood and now cinema is making films about women because the audience was "neglected".

The duo along with Rose Byrne star in Like a Boss, a comedy directed by Miguel Arteta, which follows best friends Mia and Mel (Haddish and Byrne) who join forces to run their own boutique cosmetics company.

When the prospect of a big buyout offer from a notorious titan of the beauty industry (Hayek) tempts them, their lifelong bond - and their business - is put in jeopardy.

Hayek said she is happy with the increase in female-driven films in Hollywood.

"We're on the right path. And we're not going to stop," the actor told Variety.

"What I can tell you is that a lot more women are directing and acting and writing and producing. And there are a lot more movies made about women and for women because the audience was neglected, she said.

She was speaking at the premiere of the film in New York.

Haddish added that the mantle for change shouldn't be left to the traditional decision-makers.

To get things, one has to sometimes make noise, the actor-author said.

"It's about us putting in the work and creating the projects and creating the opportunities in order to do those things to make it better. I sit back and I listen to people talk sometimes, saying, 'They're not letting us; they're not giving it to us.' Why do we have to ask permission? Why can't we just start putting it together? If they want to come on board with it, come on board. And if not, oh well," Haddish said.

"I'm about creating an opportunity. People say I'm loud and obnoxious, but sometimes it’s the squeaky wheel that gets the oil and gets things done," she added.

The comedy comes on the heels of a year gone by in cinema that featured female protagonists in films like Little Women and Captain Marvel.
