'If I can have a fraction of Ash's poise, I'll be lucky'
Vidya says she's fed up of speculation on Aishwarya's role in her life
SUBHASH K JHA Times News Network
Vidya shoots down rumours about a rift with Aishwarya Rai during the making of Mani Rathnam's Guru. "By now I'm used to link-ups and rumours. But this one takes the cake. Whenever we worked together Aishwarya was a dream co-star… an absolute delight, and someone I look up to. To even suggest she had my role cut is so ridiculous. I was aware of the extent of my role from the start. I did Guru for the pleasure of working with Mani. There are moments in the film where Aishwarya needed to reach out to me emotionally. She did it so spontaneously she won me over."
Rumour suggests Vidya won't be attending the Candian premiere of Guru because of Aishwarya. Vidya's giggles. "This is too much! I'm going to Australia for Sajid Khan's Hey Baby on Jan 10. The premiere is in Canada on the 12th. There's no way I can get back without disrupting Sajid's schedule."
She says, "I hope this puts to rest all these silly speculations about Aishwarya's role in my life. She's way above all this petty politics. Her dignity in the face of adversity is exemplary. If I can possess even a fraction of her poise I'd consider myself lucky."
