'I was offered Black, but I was busy then.'

"I was offered Black, but I was busy then," says Aishwarya

^^ exactlyy.. totally agree with you

Oh I watched that interview...She specified she was offered the teacher's role...the one that ultimately went to Big B...😊...So no question of comparison with Rani there...

I disagree. There is nothing wrong with talking about roles you have been offered IMO. If someone asks, are you gonna lie and say no I wasn't offered the film. Why?

Nothing wrong with mentioning a fact. It's not like the revelation is going to do any damage to Rani.

um aishwarya was never offered the role of "michelle" in black. i think she was offered the teacher part in black. rani herself stated in an interview long back that she was the only actress approached for the main role of michelle. i think aish was approached for the teacher role in the movie or some other role, but not the role of michelle.

but looking at the whole film i think amit ji did full justice to that role and i don't think anyone could have done it better. same with rani's role.

and i think its perfectly ok to talk about roles that she was offered but couldn't commit to!

mmmm... she could hav said a bit earlier or she was not asked ??? 🤔 does not matter really....she was NOT in black !!!! 😆

Wow, people get all offensive when its my post. Sadly this is NOT my own post or the words. It's from pinkvilla and I just watched the video. lol

anyway who cares if she was offered which role in black, those who were in the film already did a fab job, meanwhile couldn't ash reveal this after 30 yrs, she is revealling it so soon naa

Black was such a critical success only because of its actors not just because of the characters. Aishwarya can never play a role like Michelle.
