Did you know, not Shah Rukh Khan but Salman Khan shot for THIS romantic scene with Aishwarya Rai in Devdas after breakup?
A surprising fact from Devdas surfaces. Salman Khan, Aishwarya Rai's ex, stepped in for Shah Rukh Khan during the 'Morey Piya' song shoot. He demonstrated how Devdas removes a thorn from Paro's foot. This unplanned moment was captured on camera. It became their last on-screen appearance together. Their romance ended after a troubling incident. Aishwarya later married Abhishek Bachchan. Here's a surprising behind-the-scenes twist from Devdas you probably didn't know. While Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai 's chemistry in the iconic song Morey Piya left fans spellbound, one of the most intimate scenes from the track—where Devdas removes a thorn from Paro's foot—wasn't filmed with Shah Rukh at all. It was actually Salman Khan who performed the gesture on set. Despite their rocky breakup, the moment was captured and made it into the film, marking the last time the former couple ever shared screen space. In her book, Anupama Chopra revealed that during the shoot of the Morey Piya song in Devdas, Salman was present on set while Shah Rukh and Aishwarya filmed a romantic scene where Devdas delicately removes a thorn from Paro's foot. The scene, meant to be intimate and sensuous, was shot in close-up without showing the actors' faces. Unexpectedly, Salman stepped in during the shoot and began demonstrating to Shah Rukh how to perform the gesture—despite his strained equation with Aishwarya at the time. Interestingly, Sanjay Leela Bhansali kept the camera rolling while Salman demonstrated the scene by gently removing a thorn from Aishwarya's foot—marking an unplanned but emotional moment. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo That brief interaction ended up being their last time on a film set together. The close-up shot of Salman and Aishwarya was eventually included in the final cut of Devdas, making those few seconds in Morey Piya the last time the former couple shared screen space. Salman and Aishwarya's romance blossomed during the filming of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, but their relationship soon took a turbulent turn. According to senior film journalist Hanif Zaveri on the Meri Saheli podcast, the two were serious about each other until a troubling incident occurred—Salman reportedly caused a scene outside Aishwarya's residence, banging on her door when she didn't respond. Following that episode, Aishwarya ended the relationship and was later rumoured to be involved with Vivek Oberoi . Though Hanif Zaveri claimed that the rumours of Aishwarya dating Vivek were untrue and allegedly fabricated by Vivek for publicity, the aftermath of her breakup with Salman remained widely discussed. Several reports alleged that Salman had been a controlling and obsessive partner, with instances of harassment and stalking. He was also reportedly involved in Aishwarya's ouster from Chalte Chalte, where Shah Rukh Khan replaced her. Years later, Aishwarya found stability and married Abhishek Bachchan . Salman, meanwhile, remains a bachelor, despite a few high-profile relationships since.

Aishwarya Rai was thrown from these 5 blockbusters with Shah Rukh Khan without..., the films are... In the glitzy and glamorous world of Bollywood, it's often the dazzling and glittering lives of celebrities that come to the forefront. However, their challenges and struggles that happen behind the scenes are often brushed under the carpet. One such story is of India's most celebrated actress who is not only known for her beauty, impeccable acting but also for presenting India on a global stage. Yes, we are talking about Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. While now Aishwarya has become a seasoned actress, back in the day, she was dominating the entertainment landscape. But while she was bagging a lot of appreciation and love at the peak of her career, she also underwent a setback that's unknown to many. Dropped without warning In a throwback interview with Rendezvous with Simi Garewal, Aishwarya Rai revealed that while she was at the top of her game, she was removed from not just one, two, but five major projects all opposite Shah Rukh Khan. And what was even more painful for her was that she didn't get any explanation for the same. These 5 projects included major blockbusters like Chalte Chalte, Kal Ho Naa Ho, and Veer-Zaara, which were written keeping her in mind. She was removed from these roles without any justification, which left her feeling despair, shocked, and hurt. Expressing her hurt, she said: 'There were a couple of films that were supposed to happen with me. But suddenly they weren't happening, without any reason whatsoever.' Simi also asked Aishwarya if she decided to step away from those films, she replied: 'No, it wasn't my decision. You obviously are taken aback, confused, and of course hurt. You wonder about it.' Harsh Lesson Learnt Aishwarya, further expressing her discontent, revealed that this situation opened her eyes to how the industry works. 'You become more aware of what you've heard about, like in terms of situations, people, and the domino effect,' she remarked. Aishwarya was a big actress at that time who delivered back-to-back hits, and this unfairness was an epitome of the unpredictability and instability of this industry. 'It became obvious that it can happen to me too…with all your apparent box office success or 'secure positioning' in the industry,' she said. Rising with Grace Despite the professional blows, Aishwarya didn't let the bitterness take over; she rather chose to move on with grace and continued to excel in her career. After that, she delivered powerful performances in films like Dhoom 2, Jodhaa Akbar, and more.
