If you are a celebrity then comparisons are an inevitable part of your life and Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai is no different. There was a time when she was the undisputed most desirable actress in the tinsel town.
She was ruling the roost and was a mesmeriser both owing to her mirror-shattering beauty and her ample amount of on-screen talent. However, of late, the tabloids are penning more and more articles about Katrina Kaif who is considered to be her arch rival.
Being young and vivacious, Katrina is hogging all the limelight- be it for her rom-com flicks or her navel-show in raunchy songs like ‘Sheila Ki Jawani’. To Aishwarya’s credit, she did as many as 4 films in 2010 but most of them were duds at the box office. The audience is no more tempted to watch her film and even a spectacular film like ‘Guzaarish’ licked the dust at the theatres.

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.

Salman Khan was a lucky chap since he got to romance (on reel as well as in real) two of the most in-demand beauties of the B-town. Katrina Kaif was his muse till recently (now they have severed ties) and Aishwarya Rai was his past. And, now both the ladies have their own demoniacal battle to wage.

With the release of 2010’s two most talked about films-Rajneeti and Raavan, the cat is out of the bag as to who is the reigning queen of Bollywood- Aishwarya Rai or Katrina Kaif? Katrina Kaif’s Rajneeti has been one of the most acclaimed films of the year 2010 till now while Aishwarya Rai’s one day old Raavan is already facing the thrashings of the critics and the stabbings by the viewers.
Aishwarya’s ride on the ten headed monster was short lived as it was beheaded as soon as it came out of its dungeon since it failed to provide the other riders the topsy-turvy they were expecting. While Katrina’s political ride managed to swing over Abhishek’s sweetheart.
While Rajneeti portrayed the glamorous doll of Bollywood as a woman clad in sari and giving speech to win votes as her people, Raavan saw the stunning beauty queen as Ragini who is tortured by the goon Beera, beautifully displaying the battle which goes on between a woman’s heart and a wife’s mind.

2010, hitherto, hasn’t been very successful for the Bollywood planet with most of the films biting the dust. Except for Shahrukh Khan’s ‘My Name is Khan’ and Aamir Khan’s ‘3 Idiots’, the response has been lukewarm and discouraging.
But, the summer promises to be hotter as two of the sexiest women gear up for a battle ahead.
1. Katrina Kaif- With the IPL fever set to die down, Bollywood’s next awaited release will feature glam doll Katrina Kaif in the most challenging and meatiest role of her career thus far. In ‘Rajneeti’ where she plays a woman politician (loosely based on Sonia Gandhi’s life), Katrina has an opportunity to showcase her acting mettle. For a change, she would be wearing a simple sari and not those itsy-bitsy clothes which have made her a perfect eye candy in a slew of hot films.
2. Aishwarya Rai- Don’t blame it on the climate, if the temperature becomes unbearably hot this summer. As after a long gap, Ash is set to invade the theatres with ‘Raavan’ where she plays Sita (a modern day take of the epic Ramayana). Besides, she will take us back down those beautiful memory lanes of the 70s in ‘Action Replayy’ opposite the sexy Akshay Kumar.
So, it was worth a wait. But, now the time has come for a screen war between the two glittering stars to fight for the crown. It’s experience v/s. experiment. It’s Aishwarya v/s. Katrina. Let the war begin……..

The two most enigmatic women in the Hindi film industry Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Katrina Kaif have supposedly turned a complete tumble toss as far as choosing roles are concerned. It is reported that both the actresses have opted for roles which are modern versions of the ladies from the Indian Epics ‘Ramayan’ and ‘Mahabharata.’ The two ladies are to be seen in roles which they have never been seen before.

Two of the most beautiful actresses are connected by an uncanny coincidence. The forthcoming films of both the stunners are based on the religious Hindu epics Ramayana and Mahabharata.

Mani Ratnam’s Raavan, starring Aishwarya Rai as Sita, is based on Ramayana. It has south star Vikram playing Ash’s hubby and Abhishek Bachchan playing the villain who kidnaps Ash and takes her into a forest. Govinda’s character, based on Lord Hanuman, is that of a forest guard who helps trace Ash.

Prakash Jha’s film Rajneeti, on the other hand, is based on Mahabharata. The film, a political thriller, borrows a great deal from the politics of Mahabharata. Ranbir Kapoor plays an Arjun-like character who, with the help of his mentor, takes on his rivals. Katrina too plays a politico in the movie that stars a host of actors including Ajay Devgan, Arjun Rampal, Manoj Bajpai and Nana Patekar.

The sexy damsel and the reigning lady of the tinseltown Katrina Kaif has something up her sleeves(or should we say blouse) that lands her at a par with the Bollywood’s hottest diva of the 90s Madhri Dixit.

The young lady is a Bollywood import from west and Katrina(read Salman) has played her cards like a maverick magician and has successfully dethroned former Miss World Aishwarya Rai from the throne of the ‘most desirable Indian actress,’ Meanwhile, all this while, the 40-plus actress Madhuri was busy carrying out the responsibility of her matrimonial life in raising her children in USA.

But, now Mrs. Nene aka Madhuri has reportedly signed a movie in which she will be portraying the character of late Mrs. Indira Gandhi . As per reports, the film is to be directed by Asian-American filmmaker Krishna Shah and the starcast include Dharmendra, Abhay Deol and Nana Patekar.
