Aishwarya Rai Bachchan recently played the perfect Bachchan bahu as she cooked for hubby Abhishek Bachchan and the entire cast of the film ‘Game’ in Greece. The cast of the film, which includes Kangna Ranaut, Jimmy Shergill, Anupam Kher, Boman Irani, Shahana Goswami, Gauhar Khan and the film’s co-producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar, swear by the culinary skills of the gorgeous lady.

Talking about their cooking spree, Abhishek said to a news daily, “Whenever we had spare time, we did a little cooking for everyone. Apart, of course, from cycling, taking walks and playing volleyball on the beach.”
Talking about the film shooting experience, Abhishek said, “Shooting in Samos was an experience in itself, especially the action sequences, as we had all modes of water transport being used.”
Well, with so much love around and your beautiful wife cooking for you, watch out for your weight Abhi!

You heard, didn’t you, that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was originally supposed to act in this film opposite husband Abhishek, but opted out followed by Gul Panag? Truth is, the Bachchan bahu was never approached and Gul was only tested for the role. If offered, would Ash have accepted the offer? Don’t know!
But we’re glad she wasn’t asked, because honestly, audiences are fatigued by the Abhiash jodi already. And look who’s been taken on in Crooked instead, former Miss India Sarah Jane Dias!
That’s not all, Kangna Ranaut, who has just won her first National Award, too has entered the film. She takes Pakistani actress Soniya Jahan’s role since Soniya didn’t have the required work permit. Kangna was the original choice but didn’t have dates last year. But now that she’s free and Soniya is out, Kangna’s signed the film in which she gets to play a very meaty role.

and the winner is or rather are Mani Ratnam and Delhi Belly director Abhinay Deo. The concern of these directors was to sign the duo of Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan first in their movies.Mani Ratnam has already bounced up with the pair for his profect and shooting have been in the process with “Ravana” while Abinay has finalised January 4 as the D-day to start his film “Crooked” with the couple.

Anecdote about the film “Crooked” are that it is inspired from a Hollywood flick “The Bourne Identity”. The film will have a 40-day non-stop schedule in the beginning.
