He bumped into his ex-flame Aishwarya Rai while shooting for his newest movie Veer.It happened at the Mehboob Studios where Aishwarya is shooting for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Guzaarish.
Salman too is eventful shooting for the promo of Veer.Sources said that Salman emerged from his car and was talking on phone with a smile on his face. In the mean time, Aishwarya too was walking towards her van. Sources said that the ex-lovers’ eyes did meet for a moment and then chose to look the other way. Salman, who was all smiles on phone, turned serious and his smile turned into a frown. Even as Salman was walking around uneasily, Aishwarya entered her van instantly.
It may be recalled that the lovers had an ugly break-up after seeing each other for several years. Aishwarya is now cheerfully married to Abhishek Bachchan while Salman is going steady with Katrina Kaif.

What can she do if men of all ages locate her so gorgeous? Aishwarya Rai though married to Abhishek Bachchan has many male admirers in Bollywood and one such man is the hunk, Ranbir Kapoor. Lately at the Paa opening, Abhishek came to know about this, Ranbir was seen catching up with Aishwarya Rai and both the stars nonstop talking to each other until Abhishek came and interrupted them.As soon as he joined them, Aishwarya Rai told him a secret about Ranbir and that was an incident that happened almost a decade ago.
At that time, Ash was working with Rishi Kapoor in his directorial debut Aa Ab Laut Chalein and a young Ranbir who was keen to learn film making, was assisting his father. There was one instance when Rishi Kapoor and Ash were held in a grave debate over a shot, Ranbir, who was seated next to them, was busy making a sketch.
But before Ranbir could finish his sketch, his dad rapidly took the notepad from him to discover that he was sketching the beautiful Aishwarya Rai. After listening to this anecdote, Abhishek was quite ‘amused’, whilst the sharmila Ranbir couldn’t stop ‘blushing’.

Aishwarya and Sanjay Bhansali have teamed up yet again for the upcoming film Guzarish. After Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Devdas this is the third film that Ash will be doing for Bhansali. Ash who shares a warm relationship with Bhansali says, “You know Sanjay and I share a great rapport, we didn’t do the last movies together and the crew was telling me things were just not the same.”

No clue about that but Ash elaborates on how she has always been the right choice.”Sanjay and I have this relationship we don’t have to ask or dwell on stuff we know exactly what the other wants.
It’s a lovely emotional film a bit unusual,” says the blue eyed beauty.So, let’s see if Aishwarya’s be able to prove herself with Guzarish.

All eyes were on Vidya Balan at the film Paa’s premiere, not only because she plays the lead role opposite Abhishek Bachchan in the movie, but also because she was wearing a saree which seemed quite familiar.The actress, who has time and again faced flak for wearing wrong kind of clothes, was wearing a beautiful saree this time but there was a hiccup – it appeared to be straight out of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s wardrobe!
If you remember Ash wore an elegant black and white saree on the popular Oprah Winfrey show, designed by Sabayasachi Mukherjee. Vidya’s saree, also reportedly a Sabayasachi Mukherjee creation, was an exact replica. Perhaps, it was a goof up or someone was up to some mischief, but tongues started rolling on seeing Jr B’s onscreen wife dressing up as his off-screen wife.
Poor Vidya is again in controversy for her dress. Misfortune, should we say?

She is equally excited about the Family banner ABCL’s Paa, though she is not part of the cast.The fact is that she is supporting the film by taking up the responsibility as its marketing head.This is her way of reviving the family banner, which went bankrupt a few years ago following a series of flops and incurring a huge loss from organizing the Miss World contest in Bangalore in 1998.

Bollywood’s leading beauty Aishwarya Rai Bachchan believes that when it comes to time management, there is no better example than her father-in-law, megastar Amitabh Bachchan. The 36-year-old actress who is currently shooting Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Guzarish with Hrithik Roshan, said that the Big B inspires her to be punctual.”His commitment and dedication is an example for everyone to follow,” Ash told reporters last night at the launch of a new product of the international watch brand she endorses.
The actress who is a globally known face thanks to her high-end endorsement deals and international films like The Pink Panther and Bride and Prejudice said that she likes to enjoy the present and live it to the fullest whether it is professional or family commitments.”We live such busy and hectic lives that we just sail through the moment. The pace of our lives is so hectic that we don’t get to feel what now is all about,” she said.
The former beauty queen who recently completed shooting for Mani Ratnam’s Raavan slated for a mid-2010 release, said that she does not have any regrets.”I have a positive approach. Times can be good or bad. I look at all experiences as a learning curve. Sanjay (Bhansali) reminded me that Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam has completed ten years. Subhash Ghai also recalled that Taal has also turned 10. Times flies fast and I consider myself blessed,” the actress said.

Love and all is fine in its own place, really. When it comes to one’s career, I suppose one needs to be a little ruthless at times, right? At least that’s how Juicy Mausi feels. And so, when I heard that Ash ditched her husband Abhishek for Akshay Kumar, I did not really think it was weird or ‘wrong’. It so happens that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has opted out of her husband Abhishek Bachchan’s film Crooked produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani citing ‘date problems’.
Apparently, the dates clash with her other commitment – Vipul Shah’s Action Replay starring Akshay Kumar.Since Action Replay is neariAsh ditches hubby Abhi for Akking completion and Crooked is going on the floors not before January 2010, Juicy Mausi doesn’t think there should’ve been too many chronological problems.However, one needs to prioritise certain things in life.
Of course, when one wants to get ahead! And it’s not like Ash is leaving her husband Abhishek altogether. They are still very much together darlings.

At a time when there is a virtual scramble for first State Dinner of US President Barack Obama on November 24 in honour of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, a US news outlet has come out with its own top 10 wish list of the invitees.Topping the list released by Politico ? known for coverage of the Capitol Hill and the White House ? is top industrialist Mukesh Ambani, who met the President early this year. He is followed by writer-turn activist Arundhati Roy.”As India has assumed a larger role on the global stage, Roy has spoken out against globalisation, Indian poverty and the country’s nuclear weapons programme ? though she has often stirred up controversy,” Politico said and put Thomas Friedman, author of The World is Flat next on the list, followed by Bollywood stars Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.”Rai and Bachchan (or Ash and Abhi, as they are known to their fans) are the biggest stars of Bollywood.
They have billions ? not millions ? of fans; Bachchan has starred in more than 40 movies, and Rai can earn up to USD 15 million per film. If Obama needed to boost his popularity around the world, here is his ticket to the heart of India,” it said.West Bengal Governor Gopalkrishna Gandhi too makes it to the wish list on the basis of him being the grandsons of Mahatma Gandhi; given the personal admiration of the Father of the Nation by Obama.”But politics and admiration for Mohandas aren’t the only things that Gopalkrishna and Obama have in common ? both have written books, and both have two daughters,” it said.Bobby Jindal, the first Indian-American to be elected as Governor of a US State, Raj Goyle ? the fast emerging young Democratic leaders are the two Indian American politicians in the wish list; which also includes Raghubir Goyal, White House Correspondent, India Globe.
Politico’s wish list also includes Jeffrey Immelt, General Electric.”As CEO of General Electric, Immelt knows a thing or two about India. His company is one of the biggest US investors in India. And since GE owns NBC Universal, Immelt knows a thing or two about celebrity and the news business. With NBC and GE stock both struggling, an invite for Immelt might be a much-needed vote of confidence,” it said.
