Aishwarya Rai rejected working with these two Hollywood superstars
In the early 2000s, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan created a special place for herself in the Hollywood film industry. She was seen in films like Bride and Prejudice, Mistress of Spices, and Provoked. She was at the peak of her career when she was offered two films that could have changed her career drastically. According to a report in DNA, Aishwarya had turned down two action movies. Later, Angelina Jolie and Charlize Theron were roped in. Well, Aishwarya was the first choice for the movie Mr and Mrs Smith along with Brad Pitt. However, Aishwarya claimed that she was uncomfortable doing kissing and intimate scenes as a female spy in the movie.
Later, she also rejected working in Hanock as she did not want to perform kissing scene with Will Smith. A report with The Telegraph revealed that the actress had date issues and turned down the film which was later done by Eva Mendes.
Repotedly, Aishwarya was offered to play the role of Briseis, a priestess of the Trojan almighty Apollo and the widow of a Trojan warrior. During an earlier interview with The Indian Express, Aishwarya said that, ‘Films in the West and here work differently in the sense that they meet you and then they say ‘greenlit’ and they lock you off for a period of time because of the insurances. The way the entire film schedule is, you are locked off, which was very new for me. You understand the impact of the [film]. It is exciting because these are huge offers. But when Troy was spoken about forget on the script level they were saying at least six to nine months to lock off [the schedule] because it is a huge film. I had films here I was committed to, I couldn’t get myself to kick that to the curb’.
