Every actor has a fair share of crappy films. She has several memorable films as well.

It's a well known fact that she was supposed to do Dostana, HNY, Padamavat and BM - there are even articles from 2004-2005 that prove it

I'll say it's the biggest mistakes she's ever done by refusing these projects. It's almost like she wants to purposefully ruin her career

Her being the first choice for Khamoshi too was surprising

Did You Know? Aishwarya Rai Versus Manisha Koirala

Nov 03, 2009, 15:00 IST | Entertainmnet Team

Did you know, it was Aishwarya Rai who had bagged in the role of female lead in Mani Ratnam's Bombay a film made on the 1993 bomb blasts.

Did you know, it was Aishwarya Rai who had bagged in the role of female lead in Mani Ratnam's Bombay a film made on the 1993 bomb blasts.

According to the buzz, Mani Ratnam had asked cinematographer-film-maker Rajeev Menon for the dates of Ash for his movie. But, since she was busy with the Miss India pageant, she couldn't. And this is where Manisha came in the picture and took away the role.

Shankar, who is now busy shooting The Robot with Ash, was suppose to sign her for his Tamil flick India and had also decided the name of her character as Aishwarya but the clashes of dates stroke and the role went for a second time to Manisha Koirala. And we saw Manisha starring opposite Kamal Hassan, playing the role of this character named Aishwarya.

Need more, here it is. Manisha was seen playing a role in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Khamoshi but that role too was meant for none other than, Aishwarya Rai. While Aishwarya slipped the role off, Manisha was seen bagging a number of awards for her performance in this deaf-mute saga.

anyone who chats about a film she considers as her movie it seems.
padmavat offered to her and bhansali failed to find a khilji..oh come on. srk, hrithik, ajay, akshay anyone could have played khilji especially coming after super hit bajirao.
this woman always has this ego the size of an elephant.

SLB himself admit he only saw Salman as Bajaro opposite Ash in BM. Why would she lie ? Directors and easily come out and correct her ? She would make an ass out of herself?
