In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Aishwarya said that opportunities are laid on her lap. “I have said this to her also, ‘it’s fantastic for you'. The kind of support Karan has given to her from the beginning, and to have that kind of an establishment with you is very comforting because you know it is not tough. You can have it all laid out for the longest time. And she smiled. It's great where you as an actor know there are only good opportunities ahead.” She further added that "But what's nice is she is also doing good work, along with great opportunities which are virtually there literally on her lap, regularly."
Has Aishwarya forgotten that she was a struggling actress desperate for movies until she started dated Salman Khan. All her movies from 1999-2002 (HDDCS, Josh, Dhai Akshar Prem Ke, Albela, Devdas, Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam) were directed/produced by Salman's friends. It's interesting how she was unknown in Bollywood until 1999 but as soon as she entered into a relationship with Salman, movies from his friends started falling into her lap.
Later, opportunities were laid literally on her lap regularly when she started dating Abhishek Bachchan and got Umrao Jaan, Buntu Aur Babli, Sarkar Raj, Dhoom 2, Guru, Jodha Akbar because of Bachchan connections.
It is very hypocritical of Aishwarya, a woman known for conveniently using her relationships to get movies, to attack Alia and take a rude dig at her.
