Aishwarya Rai's low jab to Emraan Hashmi's 'plastic' jibe

Emraan Hashmi is the latest actor to star in Milan Luthria's 'Baadshaho' with Ajay Devgn.

Rumour has it that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was one of the first actresses to be approached for female lead role.

However, she turned down the offer to play a royal scion due to Hashmi.

Reportedly, when she heard she would have many scenes with Emraan, she was not keen to be part of the film.

The reason behind this allegedly is, due to Hashmi's comment against her in Karan Johar's popular talk show in 2014.

Screen grab

During season 4 on Karan Johar's talk show 'Koffee With Karan' Hashmi called Ash 'plastic'.

The 'Murder' actor who was accompanied by his film director/producer uncle Mahesh Bhatt on the show, candidly voiced his opinion during the rapid fire round. He was asked to give an adjective that comes to his mind when the host throws names of certain Bollywood actor or actress.

When Karan prompted Aishwarya, pat came Hashmi's response as 'plastic'. He also stated Imran Khan was 'overrated', Amir Khan as 'boring', while actor Salman Khan as 'macho.'

It has been two years since then, but it seems Aishwarya is in no mood to let bygones be bygones.
