Katrina Kaif may be the cream of the season what with her item song ‘Sheila Ki Jawani’ being played in every discotheque but if we talk of the numero uno actress then the Barbie Doll of Bollywood has still a lot of catching to do to match with the mantle of Aishwarya Rai.
In an online survey, former Miss World Aishwarya Rai has been voted as the Best Actress of 2010 for her stellar performance in the film ‘Guzaarish.’ Even though the film didn’t make a mark at the box office, the performances were hailed by the critics and certainly Aishwarya looked sublime in her role of Sophia.

After Kareena replaced Aishwarya in Sanjay Leela Bhansali`s revived ambitious project ‘Bajirao Mastani’, it is reported that Ash bagged a role good enough to make Bebo go green with envy.

Buzz has it that, Ash has been offered a role opposite Kareena’s beau Saif in Vishal Bhardwaj’s next. Sources confirm that filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj approached the green-eyes beauty with an idea to cast her as the female lead for his upcoming film. It is also heard that Vishal has been chasing Ash for 14 years now, but the two never worked together owing to date constraints or because the project was not of Ash’s interest.

However, looking at Vishal line of work it is widely speculated that if Ash agrees to the film, it will be sheer joy to watch an interesting new pair on screen.

There were hundreds of stories floating on how cinematographer-cum-filmmaker Rajeev Menon, who made Kandukondein Kandukondein with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Tabu, and Sapne with Kajol, was supposedly doing an Abhimaan kind of a flick with Ash and hubby Abhishek.

It is now being rumoured that though Rajeev was in queue before filmmaker Mani Ratnam, who used the Ash-Abhi combo for Raavan, the superstar couple gave Mani preference over Rajeev.

But now it’s said that after the debacle of Raavan, the Rajeev film may not take off because the trade would much rather see Aishwarya romance other heroes, and Abhishek serenade Katrina or Kareena.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali establishes an emotional connect with the cast of his film and his muse Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is one of his closest friends. They have worked together in super hit flicks like ‘Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam’ and ‘Devdas’.

And now the master filmmaker is deeply concerned about the beautiful actress after ‘Raavan’, her one of the most ambitious projects with hubby Abhishek Bachchan, has fallen flat at the box office. According to sources, Bhansali, who had plans to work with Kareena in his next film, has backtracked.

If sources are to be believed, Bhansali has decided to feature Ash in his next film. She is already in the film ‘Guzaarish’ but Bhansali wants to boost her morale by signing her in his next project also. And at this point of time, Bhansali has dropped the idea of signing Kareena, in favour of his favourite Ash.
