Aishwarya
Had
To
Choose
Between
Bhansali
&
Abhishek
Deccan
Chronicle
quoted
a
source
as
saying,
"Aishwarya
Rai
Bachchan
had
to
choose
between
working
with
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
and
sharing
screen
space
with
her
husband
Abhishek
Bachchan,
as
the
dates
for
both
films
were
clashing."
Aishwarya
Chose
Abhishek
Over
Bhansali
"And
she
chose
the
film
with
her
husband.
They
haven't
worked
together
in
eight
years.
And
more
importantly,
both
of
them
have
fabulous
roles
in
Gulab
Jamun.
They're
going
to
be
playing
characters
they've
never
played
before," added
the
source.
Did
Aishwarya
Rai
Make
A
Mistake?
Considering
the
recent
flops
of
Aishwarya
Rai
Bachchan,
we
do
feel
that
the
actress
should
have
given
a
green
signal
to
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali,
who's
one
maverick
director!
Recently,
A
Trade
Analyst
Had
Decoded
Why
Aishwarya
Is
Not
Delivering
Hits
A
leading
trade
analyst
was
quoted
in
Asian
Age
as
saying,
"Somehow
Aishwarya's
comeback
films
are
not
working.
It
could
be
her
selection
of
roles.
It
certainly
can't
be
the
way
she
looks,
as
she
is
looking
better
than
in
any
of
her
films."
Aishwarya's
Experiments
Fell
Flat
The
trade
analyst
further
added,
"Even
the
idea
of
the
tattoo
on
her
wrist
was
her's.
She
hand-held
debutant
director
Atul
Manjrekar
because
she
knew
they
were
treading
on
wobbly
ground.
But
the
final
outcome
was
far
from
appealing."
A
Filmmaker
Had
Also
Blamed
Aishwarya's
Acting
Chops
A
filmmaker
was
earlier
quoted
as
saying,
"She
(Aishwarya
Rai)
wants
to
go
from
Jennifer
Lopez
to
Meryl
Streep,
but
she
doesn't
have
the
range.
In
Jazbaa,
she
played
a
traumatised
mother
but
looked
shallow
and
too
taken
up
with
looking
glamorous."
'Aishwarya
Lacks
Emotional
Depth'
"In
Fanney
Khan,
she
is
fine
singing,
dancing
and
playing
the
pop
diva.
But
when
she
has
to
communicate
her
character's
loneliness,
she
is
at
a
loss.
Aishwarya
lacks
the
emotional
depth
to
pull
off
40-plus
characters,"
said
the
filmmaker.
