SRK lost the chance to pair with Ash


Shahrukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s pairing always clicked at the box office. Whether it was brother-sister jodi in ‘Josh’ or romantic pair in ‘Mohabbatein’ and ‘Devdas’, the couple was accepted by the audience in every avatar. King Khan was the first choice for Mani Ratman film ‘Raavan’ but his dates clashed with Aditya Chopra’s ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ and so he lost the chance to act opposite Aishwarya. Abhishek was then signed.

SRK was to pair with Ash for ‘Chalte Chalte’ but finally he dropped her and cast Rani Mukherjee due to his bitter relationship with Salman Khan. But scenario gradually changed and Ash moved out of Salman’s life and walked away blissfully with Abhishek Bachchan. Later she formed a good combination with Hrithik Roshan and their chemistry boomed in ‘Dhoom 2’ and ‘Jodhaa Akbar’.

Hope, SRK and Ash rebirth their sizzling chemistry and come together to ablaze the silver screen again.
