Aishwarya Rai refused to work with Aamir Khan in this blockbuster, earned Rs 400 crore, made Karisma Kapoor superstar; Movie is...

Aishwarya Rai and Aamir Khan—two titans of Indian cinema—have only shared screen space once, in Mela (2000). But that wasn't supposed to be their only collaboration. They were almost cast together in not one, but two significant films: Raja Hindustani (1996) and Mangal Pandey (2005). Director Dharmesh Darshan opened up about the missed opportunity in Raja Hindustani, a film that later went on to become a blockbuster. Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, he recalled, 'She was also my first choice for the role of Memsaab in Raja Hindustani (1996). My heart was with her. But she urgently had to go for Miss World. I didn't want to take any chances, as I wanted an actress who could devote her full time to the film and Bollywood. It was her sheer grace that she didn't hold it in her heart.' Meanwhile, another near-collaboration—this time in Josh—was sidestepped by a casting misread. Director Mansoor Khan said, 'I was intending to cast Aamir as the romantic lead opposite Aishwarya. But when I narrated the script to Aamir, he thought he was playing Max. Then I went to Shah Rukh; he was excited about Max. I narrated it to him; he suggested a lot of things for Max's character.' Raja Hindustani earned Rs 76.34 crore worldwide, including a domestic gross of Rs 73.84 crore. Its domestic nett was Rs 43.15 crore, and its adjusted worldwide gross is equivalent to Rs 400 crore. While these cinematic what-ifs remain part of industry lore, real-life speculations are currently casting a shadow over Aishwarya's personal life. Rumours of a split with Abhishek Bachchan have been circulating, especially after the Bachchan family's silence on Aishwarya's birthday this November 1st. Amidst the noise, an old interview with Filmfare has resurfaced, where she spoke about the reality of relationships behind the glamour, 'There's a lot of adjustment, a lot of give and take. There will be agreements and disagreements. But it's important to keep the communication going. That's something I've always believed in.' From missed roles to muted wishes, Aishwarya's timeline reads like a series of graceful exits—both scripted and unscripted.
