According to recent reports, Aishwarya Rai was once offered to dance in the film, Ram Leela’s song, Ram Chahe Leela. However, the lyrics had a connection to Aishwarya Rai’s ex-boyfriend, Salman Khan’s film, Dabangg. Reportedly, Aishwarya had asked the director to change the lyrics, but he refused to do so.

“Thappad se nahin pyar se darr lagta hai”

“Salman and I broke up last March, but he isn't able to come to terms with it. After we broke up, he would call me and talk rubbish. He also suspected me of having affairs with my co-stars. I was linked up with everyone, from Abhishek Bachchan to Shah Rukh Khan. There were times when Salman got physical with me, luckily without leaving any marks. And I would go to work as if nothing had happened.”
For the unversed, Aishwarya and Abhishek are proud parents to a beautiful daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan.
