Jaya
Bachchan
and
Aishwarya
Rai
Bachchan
are
the
most-talked
about
'saas-bahu'
jodi
of
B-town.
From
how
they
behave
with
each
other
when
they're
in
public
to
what
they
speak
about
each
other
to
media,
netizens
notice
everything
about
them.
So,
we
have
brought
to
you
a
special
feature
related
to
Jaya
and
her
bahu,
Aishwarya,
and
this
particular
incident
dates
back
to
2009.
Did
you
know
that
Jaya
Bachchan
was
shocked
to
learn
that
Aishwarya
had
lost
an
award
to
Priyanka
Chopra?
According
to
a
daily,
during
an
award
function,
director
Ashutosh
Gowariker
had
taken
a
sharp
dig
at
Priyanka
and
had
said,
"Priyanka
(Chopra)
I
love
you,
but
I
don't
know
how
you
got
the
award
for
Best
Actress
when
Aishwarya
(Rai
Bachchan)
was
also
nominated
in
the
same
category
for
Jodhaa
Akbar."
For
the
unversed,
Priyanka
had
won
an
award
for
her
brilliant
job
in
Fashion.
However,
Ashutosh
had
felt
that
Aishwarya
should
have
won
the
award
for
'Best
Actress'
for
Jodhaa
Akbar.
While
expressing
his
disappointment
overtly,
Ashutosh
had
further
added,
"Jayaji
(Jaya
Bachchan)
was
just
asking
me
the
same
thing." Well,
just
like
Ashutosh
Gowariker,
Jaya
Bachchan
was
shocked
with
Priyanka's
winning
too!
According
to
the
reports,
Priyanka
didn't
comment
at
that
time,
but
she
had
later
shared
her
displeasure
with
many
of
her
close
B-town
friends.
Cut
to
present,
Jaya
Bachchan
seems
least
interested
in
signing
any
project,
whereas
her
bahu,
Aishwarya
Rai
Bachchan
will
be
seen
next
in
Mani
Ratnam's
Ponniyin
Selvan.
She
had
recently
dubbed
in
Hindi
for
Angelina
Jolie's
Maleficent:
Mistress
Of
Evil,
leaving
everyone
enchanted
with
her
voice
and
promotional
videos.
