Aishwarya Rai Bachchan says she turned down Shah Rukh Khan’s film because Abhishek Bachchan wasn’t…

In an interview, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan revealed that she turned down the offer because she was not cast opposite her husband Abhishek Bachchan.

Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone shared the screen in Farah Khan’s 2014 film Happy New Year. The film also stars Abhishek Bachchan, Sonu Sood, Boman Irani and Vivaan Shah. Interestingly, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has also been offered a role in the film.

In an interview, she said that she rejected the offer because she and her husband were not chosen. Speaking to NDTV, Aishwarya Rai said, “Yes, I was offered the film and it actually seemed like quite a fun journey. I knew we would have a lot of fun doing it and it would be a fun experience.” She added: “They wouldn’t put us against each other. That would be very, very strange, wouldn’t it? That’s why I had to refuse.”

video As her interview went viral on social media, one netizen wrote, “The simple reason why she sacrificed her career for Abhishek…unfortunately he ended up playing minor roles.” The second said: “Men eventually bring you to their level, high or low, depends on the man.” A third said, “The real reason was that SRK was the main character and Abhishek was the second one. She will be playing the role of Deepika, who will be her female lead. Abhishek didn’t like it, so she said no. In Duma, she did not play Abhishek’s love interest, but she did this film because Abhishek was the protagonist and Hrithik was the main antagonist, so there would be no harm to fragile egos here.”

For those who don’t know, reports are saying that Abhishek Bachchan cheated on his wife Aishwarya with his Dasvi co-star Nimrat Kaur. For the first time, Nimrat broke her silence and addressed these rumors and said that it is impossible to stop gossip.

According to The Times of India, responding to dating rumors with Abhishek Bachchan, Nimrat said, “I could do anything and people would still say what they want. It’s impossible to stop such gossip and I prefer to focus on my work.”

Nimrat’s clarification follows a viral post on Reddit that alleged Abhishek had an extramarital affair with her. Fans also criticized Abhishek for allegedly being unfaithful to his wife.
