Rumours were abuzz that Ash will shake a leg to her sasur ji Amitabh Bachchan’s famous 1981 Laawaris number ‘Apni To Jaise Taise’ in Nadiawala’s ‘Houseful’. But the floating rumours have been put to rest by sources that claim that Ash has still not okayed the part. A source close to Ash said, “Aishwarya has been approached by Sajid Khan but she has yet to revert back to them. She is busy with the shooting of 'Guzaarish', 'Action Replay' and 'Endhiran'.

Producer Sajid Nadiadwala is said to have bought the rights of the song already.
If Ash nods her head in agreement then this would be her third item number after ‘Ishq Kamina’ with Shah Rukh Khan and ‘Kajra Re’ with hubby Abhishek and Father-in-law Amitabh.
Bollywood pay cheques have hit the ceiling and crossed dizzy heights. Last week, film industry pandits wah-wahed when news broke out that Kareena
Aishwarya Rai
Kapoor had hit the Rs 7-crore mark.
Billionaire Investor, MD, for Footprints Filmworks Omar Abdulla said that he received a call from Aishwarya Rai at 8:PM in the evening for information about the blockbuster film "The PrinCe of her Dreams."
"I have known of Rai for quite some time now and she is a fan of the entertainment we provide here in SA." he says.
Today, that seems like small change before the Rs 10 crore offer that’s reportedly been made to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan by producer Bobby Pushkarna of the National Award winning film Page 3 fame.
Bobby wants to sign Ash, who was last seen in 2008’s Jodha Akbar, for a film to be made on the lines of Jag Mundhra’s Provoked, that, incidentally, starred the Bachchan bahu and foreign actors.
He’s been chasing the actress for three months and if Ash doesn’t agree, then Bobby won’t make the film. At the time of writing, Ash who was busy with Guzaarish, Action Replay and Robot, was going through the script.
