Preity Zinta has been reportedly signed by Wizcraft International for the Bachchans Unforgettable tour.
Preity has replaced Bipasha Basu who opted out of the show for hiking her fees.
The gorgeous Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is getting Rs. 1 crore for the tour and Bipasha demanded the same amount as Ash and unable to fulfill her desire by Wizcraft, she preferred to walk out of the show.
Wizcraft then approached Preity and she readily accepted – a development that has been confirmed by the organizers.
Seems like Preity, by joining the Bachchans tour has not only saved the show but also added some extra glamour to it.
Earlier it was Akshay Kumar who was dissatisfied with the amount being paid to him but on hiking his fees, he stayed back.
Lara Dutta opted out as she had the feeling that Aishwarya would hog all the limelight and she will not be noticed.
Apart from Bollywood mega superstar Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan , Ritesh Deshmukh and Shahid Kapur are also part of the show.
Madhuri Dixit has also been finalized to groove with Ash on the show that will kick-start in July across UK, Europe and Canada.
