Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is among those superstars who never invited controversies in her way. Aishwarya has always been far off from the controversy world. Except for one time, when uninvited controversy knocked her door.
It was during the release of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Hrithik Roshan’s movie Dhoom 2. The actress faced legal threats. Unbelievable right? But why did she receive legal threats? Well, it was all because of a spiced kiss that she shared with his co-star Hrithik Roshan in the film.

Controversy revealed

She then added, “And I was like wow, I’m just an actor, doing my job, and here I am being asked to offer an explanation for a couple of seconds in a two, three-hour piece of cinema.”

Aishwarya Rai also revealed that she rejected a couple of Hollywood projects as she wasn’t really comfortable with the idea of physical intimacy on the big screen. She continued, “A lot of actors have kissed before that movie; they continue to kiss on the screen until this very minute, but the public display is not that common in Indian culture. Even our actors, it’s very rare that actors look comfortable in our cinema on-screen kissing,”
