Deepika Padukone charging more than Aishwarya!


It may seem to be incredible, but the truth is that 'one film wonder' Deepika Padukone is proving to be costlier than former Miss World Aishwarya Bachchan to the film producers. Before her entry into Bollywood, Deepika was talked about more because of her string of boyfriends, but today she is also in the news for demanding exorbitant rates for acting in films.

Soon after the resounding success of the Shahrukh-Deepika starrer Om Shani Om, a producer from south India Shankar, who made the super hit film Shivaji –The Boss with Rajnikanth, had approached the former model for the female lead role in his forthcoming film Robot,but Deepika is reported to have charged such a high fee which left the producer stunned as well as silent. Next, Shankar approached Aishwarya Bachchan-Bachchan for the role, but there is no confirmation whether the actress has said yes.

Sources close to the former beauty queen revealed that though money is no factor with Aishwarya, she is basically running a tight schedule. After having completed the magnum opus Jodhaa-Akbar, Aishwarya has just completed shooting for an international project Pink Panther – 2 and Sarkar Raj. Currently, the actress, her husband and actor Abhishek Bachchan and mother-in-law Jaya Bachchan are holidaying in the pink city of Jaipur in Rajasthan.

Producer Shankar has once again signed up his favorite super hero Rajnikanth for Robot, where the actor will be seen in the role of a scientist who creates a robot for the benefit of mankind. However, the robot, like Frankenstein, turns again mankind and Rajnikanth works hard to bring it back to control. A whole lot of special techniques and special effects will be used in this semi-science fiction.

Now, what is worth mentioning is that perhaps the success of Om Shanti Om has gone into the head of Deepika, who has let go of an opportunity to work in a big budget film opposite South superstar Rajnikanth only for the sake of money. This move may prove to be costly for Deepika and she may not even get the opportunity to make amends. For Bollywood does not offer time to make amends!

TFS!
Yaar,when will the media obsession with Deepika end!they are saying that ASh was the second choice!!!!and that ASh got the role because she charged less!!these journos have lost all credibility 😡 .not yet time to put them in the same bracket!

Any one watched the Star Screen awards last night?Ranbir and Deepika sitting shoulders and thighs touching(not a ray of sunlight could pass through).

Did the director ask them to do this?They looked just too comfortable together-especially Ranbirs body language..leaning forward,smiling-he always looked so stiff in his previous pics!

I wonder when it was shot..before or after the 'quarrel' 😕

Perhaps a video will be posted...and we can have some opinions..
Both never so gorgeous-that i can safely say for sure!

Very bad Deepika..tsk tsk😆.

Insignificant news 😛: Deepika was in the race till SRK was supposed to be the lead and the movie was in Hindi. But as soon as the talks with SRK and subsequently with Aamir (who wanted to play both Scientist and Robot😊) failed and it was planned as a Tamil film with Rajnikant, Aishwarya was the only choice. Apparently Ash agreed to do the film as a gratitude to Shankar who gave her a huge hit in her initial days with 'Jeans'.

Now Rajnikant plays Scientist and Tamil superstar Ajit plays Robot. Aishwarya though confirmed the news of the film is on a tight schedule as she has to also go abroad for Bachchans world tour (stage shows) soon. What will happen to John Abraham's film with Ash then? Hmm....
