Bipasha
lost her role in Raavan as Mandodari because the star cast is already heavy.
Aishwarya
Rai Bachchan (Sita), South superstar Vikram (Ram), Abhishek Bachchan (Raavan);
National Award winner Priya Mani (Shoorpankha), Govinda (Hanuman) etc.
She
was already in costume and getting ready to go to the sets when she was dumped
because it took the creative team that long to decide whether she should drive
to the location or not. However, there are websites and papers still writing
about Bips being dropped because certain members of the cast were threatened by
her dominating screen presence.
Aishwarya and
Bipasha are quite civil toward each other and they have also worked together in
Dhoom 2.Bips
is doing Dum Maro Dum that has Abhishek in the lead and though Bips is cast
with Rana Dagubatti, she and AB Junior get along famously. Who comes up with
all these weird theories?
Aishwarya and Abhishek Bachan may
skip the IIFA weekend, held in Sri Lanka’s capital Colombo. Aish who has
recently returned from her shooting in Chennai with Rajnikant for “Robot”, is
scheduled to travel to Paris in the first week of June.
“She
is going for a Longines (international watch brand which the actress promotes)
commitment to Paris where she will be attending the French open,” her
spokesperson said.
Abhishek’s spokesperson
said the actor will be shooting for Abhinay Deo’s “Game” in Istanbul.
Speculations are that the Big B too may give the event a miss this year
following two incidents of demonstrations by some Tamil groups in Mumbai
outside his home to protest against the choice of IIFA venue. Amitabh Bachchan
is the brand ambassador of IIFA since the event began ten years ago.
One of the most beautiful actress in Bollywood, the
former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachan attended the Cannes Film Festival with
her mother Vrinda Rai.
She walked the red carpet in pink
gown with her mother dressed in off-white saree with matching jewelry.
This is the first time after marriage that Abhishek
Bachan was not accompanying Ash. Since 2002 Ash has been a popular face on the
Cannes Red Carpet. She represents L’Oreal.
Aishwarya posed with her mother, they were all smiles for
the photographers.
Rumors mills are churning hard about
the patch up of Abhishek Bachan and Salman Khan. Grapevine has it that Aish’s
hubby Abhishek and alman Khan have put an end to their hostility. Abhi was seen
supporting Salman on a social networking site.
Salman was dating Aishwarya before
she got married to Abhishek Bachan. Their love affair was the most talk about
news in town.
According to the latest news Abhi stookd up for Salman
when the later was attacked by a journo for doing a hosiery advertisement. Abhi
seems to be in a mood to bury the hatred and be friends with Sallu. The
journalist had reportedly stated that “big league heroes don’t sell
undergarments”. Salman had ignored the statement by Abhishek quickly responded
in to defend the Khan.
Abhi reportedly remarked that Akshay Kumar, Hrithik
Roshan and Shahrukh Khan were also doing undergarment ads. The surprise was
that Abhishek was defending Salman.
The beautiful Aishwarya Rai will be seen working her ex-boyfriend Vivek
Oberoi once again. After Kyun Ho Gaya Na, both of them will be seen together
after a long gap for Satish Kaushik new movie “Tansen”.
“Tansen” is a multi million mega project where Abhishek and Aishwarya will
play the lead role. Vivek’s role is still not decided as yet.
The film’s shooting is set to begin in the mid of June, preferably in a
foreign location.
