Abhishek scared of wife Aishwarya Rai's ex-boyfriend Salman?

What's common between Abhishek Bachchan and Salman Khan? It's definitely Aishwarya Rai, who was once Salman's girlfriend and now Abhishek's wife. Possibly this is the hidden and sole reason why Abhishek Bachchan chose the option to avoid Salman by giving a miss to Bigg Boss 5.

Abhishek Bachchan, who was excited about his forthcoming film Players, was leaving no stone unturned to promote it. Abhi, who was supposed to visit the sets of Bigg Boss, changed his decision in the last minute. Reason? Well, a smart Junior B tried to give a valid reason of bad weather that is currently predominant in North India due to which his flight got cancelled, but the real reason seems something else.

Few Daily Bhaskar sources claim that Salman co-hosting the show seems to be the real reason which kept junior B away from the house. But what if Sallu co-hosting the show? Well, we all remember the history of Aishwarya and Salman's relationship. Possibly this might have compelled Abhi to stay away from Sallu's show. So, the question arises, is Abhishek scared of Ash's ex Salman?
