When Hrithik Roshan Misjudged Aishwarya Rai And Thought She Has No Talent
Aishwarya Rai and Hrithik Roshan are one of the hottest and most loved on-screen couples in the Bollywood. Both the stars acted together in three films that include Dhoom 2, Jodha Akbar and Guzaarish. And people fell in love with their chemistry which was always on fire.
But, not many know about the first impression of Hrithik Roshan when he met Aishwarya Rai during their shoots. At that time, Hrithik used to think that Aishwarya is mere a pretty and beautiful face without any talent.
These are the words Hrithik had admitted during Dhoom 2 promotions. He later stated that he misjudged Mrs. Bachchan and said, “I Judged Ash Wrong. I have to say that I had judged her wrong. I felt really foolish at that. Sometimes beauty just takes over so much of the other talents.”
“She’s someone with a lot more mettle than just what shows on her face,” Hrithik was quoted in an interview. What is that thing that changed Hrithik’s opinion?
It was during one of the shooting schedules with Aishwarya Rai in Rio De Janerio for Dhoom 2 and his opinion completely changed of the dazzling actress. Hrithik had further added that he was delighted to see Aishwarya’s ‘dedication’, ‘consistent focus’ and ‘approach to work’. He went on to say that Aishwarya is a thinking actress, apart from being beautiful.
Coming to the actress, What did she use to think about Hrithik?
In an interview with Subhash K Jha, Aishwarya said, “Hrithik has been a special co-star. We’ve shared a fantastic rapport that gets translated into wonderful chemistry on screen.” She also revealed her friendship with Hrithik and goes back her initial days in Bollywood.
First, both the actors worked in a commercial. “We’re both genuinely committed to our craft. That apart, we share a special friendship from the time we did a commercial together many years ago,” said Aishwarya.
Even before that, she had been approached for Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s Mission Kashmir. That’s the first time the former Miss World met Hrithik Roshan. “He was very new then. From then, our journey took off. I was also offered Krrish but had no dates.”
“We never came around to working together in a movie until Dhoom 2. It was a very new genre for me. Doing Dhoom 2 was a pleasure because of that friendship. I think part of our comfort level comes from the fact that Abhishek and Hrithik are childhood friends. So, vicariously, I was already a part of the brat pack,” had said Mrs. Bachchan.
