Regrets
Turning
Down
Mani
Ratnam's
Roja
Speaking
about
the
film
offers
she
had
turned
down,
Ayesha
told
ETimes,
"There
were
a
lot
of
films
that
I
couldn't
do.
I
couldn't
do
Mani
Ratnam's
Roja
due
to
date
issues
and
I
regretted
it." The
role
eventually
went
to
Madhoo.
She
further
added,
"Then
there
was
a
Rama
Naidu
film,
Prem
Qaidi
which
I
had
to
reject
because
I
was
supposed
to
be
introduced
in
a
bikini
in
the
film."
Ayesha
Jhulka
On
Staying
Away
From
The
Limelight
On
being
asked
what
kept
her
away
from
Bollywood,
the
actress
said,
"I
am
still
a
part
of
Bollywood;
just
not
on
screen.
There
is
a
lot
of
work
coming
my
way
in
films,
web-series,
and
also
TV,
but
if
I
can't
take
it
up
unless
I
fit
in.
I
am
looking
forward
to
doing
roles
that
can
give
satisfaction
as
an
actor.
Otherwise
I
keep
busy
doing
work
for
animals.
Also,
I
am
writing
a
script,
and
reading
a
few
which
I
am
considering
for
acting
prospects.
So
a
lot
is
happening
right
now.
Ayesha
said
that
she
deliberately
kept
away
from
films
post
marriage
and
told
the
tabloid,
"I
started
working
at
a
very
young
age,
so
when
I
got
married,
I
wanted
a
normal
life.
I
quite
enjoyed
it!
Being
away
from
Bollywood
after
marriage
was
a
good
decision."
Ayesha
Jhulka
Wants
To
Work
With
Aamir
Khan
Again
Talking
about
the
actors
she
wishes
to
work
with,
Ayesha
told
ETImes,
"There
are
a
lot
of
good
actors--from
Ranveer
Singh
to
Ranbir
Kapoor--whom
I
would
like
to
work
with.
But
I
want
to
work
with
Aamir
again
because
he
is
so
fantabulous!"
Further,
she
was
all
praise
for
her
Jo
Jeeta
Wohi
Sikander
co-star
and
said,
"He
is
the
one
actor
who
always
has
his
head
on
his
shoulders.
He
works
really
hard
to
get
into
the
character.
Even
now,
if
you
see
his
films,
he
just
blends
into
the
character,
which
is
amazing!"
Ayesha
Jhulka
Reveals
Which
Bollywood
Stars
She
Remains
In
Touch
With
"I
am
in
touch
with
Jackie
Dada,
who
does
a
lot
of
social
work,
especially
towards
the
betterment
of
animals
as
he
is
also
an
animal
lover.
I
wanted
to
start
an
animal
ambulance
in
Lonavala
and
he
recently
donated
a
van
to
us.
I
am
also
in
touch
with
Bhagyashree,
Raveena
Tandon,
Hema
Malini
ji
and
a
few
more.
Recently,
I
had
a
little
mishap
with
my
dog,
and
realised
that
a
lot
of
people
support
me.
It
is
like
a
family.
Here
I
would
like
to
mention
a
person
whom
I
have
never
worked
with
but
who
reached
out
to
me--John
Abraham.
I
really
appreciate
his
support
as
not
many
people
do
that.
I
had
met
Aamir
after
years
and
nothing
had
changed;
even
when
I
meet
Govinda,
it's
like
no
time
has
passed,"
the
senior
actress
told
ETimes.
