Bollywood is on high alert! One of its biggest stars, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has fallen ill while shooting her latest movie “Action Replay.”
The model and actress has spent the last week on Manori Island working with Vipul Shah on the movie that tells the story of a time-traveling man, played by Akshay Kumar.
But all of a sudden, while shooting a scene, Ash got sick and had to take antibiotics. But it seems like Mrs Bachchan ate the medicine like candy and soon had a bad reaction. Her lips got swollen and her fever worsened.
But what to do when you have to finish a movie? Well, Ash is a true professional and decided to simply cover her face with a veil and continue shooting! Interesting! No rest for this L’Oreal girl!
“The reaction could’ve either been because of the antibiotics, which she took in excess as she had to finish the shooting yesterday as well as fulfill the next important commitment of being the keynote speaker at a women’s summit today or it could also be an insect sting,” Aishwarya’s spokesperson said.
But unfortunately the star didn’t get any better despite all the antibiotics and today her husband, Abhishek Bachchan, had to accept an award for her at the summit.
Poor Ash! We hope she gets better soon!

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan seems to have turned workaholic. She has been shooting for Vipul Shah’s forthcoming flick ‘Action Replay’ at Manori Island for the last few days. Besides, she also has to finish some important sequences. However, she suddenly suffered high fever and a severe throat infection just before reaching the set. In spite of all this, she was not willing to cancel the day’s shoot. In fact, she did go to the set in a ferry from Versova to Manori Island after taking antibiotics. And, the actress got busy shooting for her part.

Everything was fine until lunchtime when suddenly she felt her lips starting to puff up and getting swelled. This may be due to the reaction of antibiotics, which she took in excess. After all, she had to finish the shooting as well as to fulfill the next important commitment of being the keynote speaker at a women’s summit, it is learnt. Anyway, this isn’t fair for the Bachchan bahu , who is the vital link of the entire family these days. Her illness causes a great concern among Bachchans, we are told.

On Monday, a shoot involving Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan was supposed to take at a suburban mall. The entire mall was to be cordoned off for the entire day. That would have brought business to a standstill and resulted in a huge loss for the shop owners. But Aishwarya stepped in and saved the day for the shop owners. She asked her producer to cordon off only the area where the shoot was taking place and let business run in the other sections of the mall.

Aishwarya was shooting for Vipul Shah’s Action Replay and she was doing the portions in which she had to sport an old lady’s get-up. Vipul was extra cautious about not revealing her look. So his production team told him to book the mall for the entire day.

Rumours were abuzz that Ash will shake a leg to her sasur ji Amitabh Bachchan’s famous 1981 Laawaris number ‘Apni To Jaise Taise’ in Nadiawala’s ‘Houseful’. But the floating rumours have been put to rest by sources that claim that Ash has still not okayed the part. A source close to Ash said, “Aishwarya has been approached by Sajid Khan but she has yet to revert back to them. She is busy with the shooting of ‘Guzaarish’, ‘Action Replay’ and ‘Endhiran’.

Producer Sajid Nadiadwala is said to have bought the rights of the song already.

If Ash nods her head in agreement then this would be her third item number after ‘Ishq Kamina’ with Shah Rukh Khan and ‘Kajra Re’ with hubby Abhishek and Father-in-law Amitabh.

It is believed that the star is now being offered a whopping 10 crores for a film. Producer and National Award winner Bobby Pushkarna of Page 3 fame is said to have relentlessly pursued Aishwarya for almost three months to get her to agree to do his film. And it is believed that he had even decided that if Ash would not do his film, then he will not make it.

However you can’t blame the actress for becoming pricier by the day, if produces are willing to chase her around to work for them, one can’t blame her for superciliousness.

The leading lady is at present shooting for ‘Action Replay’, ‘Guzaarish’ and ‘Robot.’

Sushmita Sen will appear in an item number in Sajid Khan’s film, Housefull, dancing to the remixed version of the famous song ‘Apni Toh Jaise Taisi’.

Confirmation of Sushmita’s appearance in the song – first made famous by Amitabh Bachchan in the 1981 blockbuster Lawaaris – puts persistent rumours of Aishwarya Rai’s appearance in the Housefull item number to rest.

While Aishwarya Rai was indeed approached to appear in the song, sources say she has turned the offer down, allegedly due to the link the song has with her father-in-law. She is also currently busy with a filming schedule including Guzaarish, Action Replay and Endhiran. Had Aish agreed, it would have been only her third item number appearance, following ‘Ishq Kamina’ (with Shahrukh Khan in the film Shakti - The Power) and ‘Kajra Re’ (with Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan in the film Bunty Aur Babli).

When it comes to the Bachchans, it all runs in the family.

The news is that Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan will do an item number in comedian-turned-director Sajid Khan’s upcoming multistarrer, Housefull.

The song to which Ash will be gyrating is said to be dad-in-law Amitabh Bachchan’s hit number, Apni toh jaise taise, from his 1981 hit Laawaris.

The film’s producer, Sajid Nadiadwala, has bought the rights of the song, though Sajid Khan is mum. “I am neither confirming nor denying the news. We will make an announcement at the right time,” says Khan.

Of late, the Bachchans have been going out of their way to push the prospects of each other. Last week, when Abhishek Bachchan made his debut as a TV show host–Bingo on Colors channel–Big B was his first guest.

Obviously, Abhishek needs all the push.

What with the entire globe concerned with Global warming and the ultimate crisis of water that it will eventually lead to making all and sundry feeling high and dry! Reality has hit hard at all humans and bollywood stars and film folks are not spared with the fear either. Recently, it has been reported that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was supposed to be shooting for a song sequence on a holi day celebration for the film ‘Action Replay”.
According to sources, there were to be 500 extras and 150 dancers to accompany the actress for the song. There were supposed to be gallons of water to be used as it was supposed to be a holi based song which is a festival of colors where the modern version of celebrating it with water based colors was to be shot.

Bollywood’s most beautiful actress Aishwarya Rai, in a recent shooting scene, decided to drop her wet Holi scene in a bid to save water in a city that’s suffering from acute scarcity of drinking water.
The Holi wet scene was to be Aishwarya’s entry in Vipul Shah’s upcoming flick ‘Action Replay’ where there were supposed to be lots of colour and water. But, then their inner conscience rose and they planned to drop the water-wasting scene.

“It is true that we are not going ahead with the earlier planned water sequence in the Holi song as we would have used at least 70-80 tankers of water for the 3-day shoot. It is an elaborate song with 500 extras and 150 dancers. I was very excited about it but then realised the magnitude of the water scarcity the city is facing. Aishwarya also opined that we should not go ahead with the plan. Both of us were on the same page on this. We have now decided to shoot it in a different way. It will be completely dry,” cites Vipul, the director of the film.
So, looks like they are reading a lot of environmental-friendly stuff. Anyways, their act is praiseworthy indeed and must be set as an example for our people to imitate. Kudos!
