Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Once Denied Brad Pitt Movie Over Love-Making Scenes; Says ‘There Were A Lot Of Kisses’
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan explained the reason for refusing Wolfgang Petersen’s historical war film alongside Brad Pitt.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was the Hollywood film industry talent that won hearts before Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone. She made appearances on multiple talk shows, winning over viewers with her charm and wit. International motion pictures such as Bride and Prejudice, Mistress of Spices, Provoked, The Pink Panther 2, and The Last Legion have featured the blue-eyed diva.
Aishwarya established herself in the West with her captivating beauty and outstanding acting. As a result, numerous famous people occasionally bring up her name in interviews, even now.
Rejected Brad Pitt’s Troy
There was a time when the Ponniyin Selvan actress was receiving many offers to work on Hollywood projects. However, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was quite selective and slowly distanced herself from working in English or international movies due to scheduling issues. One such film the actress was offered, which she denied, was Brad Pitt’s Troy.
A lot of Kisses
In an interview with PTI, Aishwarya revealed why she rejected being a part of Wolfgang Petersen’s historical war film. The Ae Dil Hai Mushkil actress revealed, “One of the reasons I declined Troy was that there were some very explicit lovemaking scenes in the script and a lot of kisses.
Scheduling Issues
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan disclosed in the same interview that Michael Douglas had brought a script for her when he visited India in the past. Will Smith wanted to collaborate with her on Hancock and Seven Pounds as well. Aishwarya claimed that her attitude was not the reason she turned down these films. She did not have time to work abroad due to scheduling conflicts.
Brad Pitt stated earlier in 2012 that he would like to collaborate with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan because of her versatility as an actress. He referred to her as one of the most well-known Bollywood actresses who gained popularity in the West due to her good looks, sense of style, and acting prowess. He addressed how they missed an opportunity to work together in Troy.
Her Recent Projects
Meanwhile, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s last theatrical release was Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan 2 (2023). The period drama film also stars Vikram, Trisha Krishnan, Karthi, Sobhita Dhulipala, Jayam Rani, Jayaram, Prakash Raj, and others. The film received positive reviews and a great response at the box office.
