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.

Helpless Aishwarya Rai wants some time for Pa as well as Paa. Well, this was her dilemma but thanks to a considerate director, the Bachchan bahu got a few days leave from her taut shooting schedule.

Pa Amitabh Bachchan was all alone whilst shuttling from place to place and juggling his schedule to promote ‘Paa’ and the reason for his solitariness was that all the members of the family were busy. Abhishek Bachchan is in Goa shooting for Ashutosh Gowariker’s film, Jaya Bachchan was handling politics in the parliament and Ash has a busy schedule because of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Guzaarish’.

So a doting bahu like Ash, expressed her helplessness to Sanjay and then what else – “Sanjay made up his mind to give her some time off on those crucial days on and before the premiere, although it meant considerable schedule adjustment on his part,” a source was quoted by a daily.

Aishwarya Rai says she is fully convinced that actor-husband Abhishek Bachchan will make a good father in real life because he is so “real and rooted”.

Jaya Bachchan, the veteran bollywood actress and mother-in-law of gorgeous Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, has created a storm by supporting Ashutosh Gowarikar in questioning Priyanka Chopra’s best actress award while ignoring the claims of her daughter-in-law at IIFA in Macau.

Jaya Bachchan feels that Aishwarya Rai’s character of Jodha Bai in Ashutosh Gowarikar’s directorial venture ‘Jodhaa Akbar’ was more deserving of the best actress award than Priyanka Chopra’s role in Madhur Bhandarkar’s flick ‘Fashion’. Though the veteran actress claimed in the same vein that she was yet to see Priyanka Chopra’s film ‘Fashion’ , but it did not make her wait before passing a judgment on Priyanka’s histrionics prowess vis-à-vis Aishwarya Rai.

Sources say that Jaya Bachchan’s displeasure was more pronounced as all other principal actors of ‘Jodhaa Akbar’, including Hrithik Roshan, had won awards in their respective categories. Only Aishwarya Rai and cinematographer Kiran Deohans could not manage to get any awards at the function and this despite the fact that Big B was the brand ambassador of the IIFA function.
