After his debut film Kuch Naa Kaho, Rohan Sippy has again teamed up with Aishwarya Rai, albeit for a Lux commercial.

"That's right," says media- recluse Aishwarya. "Rohan and I have been friends for ages. When his name cropped up for the new Lux commercial I immediately grabbed it. We just shot the ad in Dubai. And it's turned out really HOT!"

Talk veers to rumours that Aishwarya has not been giving ample time to the promotion of her films. "Not true at all! I've been virtually living out of suitcases, running from location to location all over the world, trying to get my four new films ready. Even then I've always made myself available for the promotion of all my films. I was absolutely pressed for time during the release of Mistress Of Spices. I nevertheless agreed to a number of one-on-ones on the film. What could I do if the press persons were looking for more spice than I could give them about the film?" she laughs, dodging all questions on her personal life.

Right now she's all set to promote Jagmohan Mundhra's Provoked in a big way. "It's a film and theme I completely believe in. I suggested we get the real Kiranjit Ahluwalia whom I play, into the promotional loop for Provoked. As for me not dubbing my lines in the Punjabi, Tamil Telugu and Hindi versions, I speak Punjabi in the original English version of the film. So the Punjabi version needs no dubbing from me. For the Tamil and Telugu versions I've asked them to get professional dubbing artistes who speak in these languages. How would I sound speaking in Tamil and Telugu? I don't think Hrithik dubbed for the South Indian versions of Krissh.

Her last word on the bikini controversy in Dhoom 2."Thank God people have stopped talking about it. It was never me."
