Ash backs out of KBC

Aishwarya Rai
On Monday evening, Aishwarya Rai shocked the unit of Kaun Banega Crorepati, a show her father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan hosts. 

Ash was supposed to turn up for one of the KBC shoots with Akshay Kumar and her other co-stars, to promote her next Action Replayy. She never went.

Until Sunday, the officials of the channel were unaware that Ash would finally not turn up for the shoot. Naturally, when they were informed on Monday, they could do precious little to salvage the situatin.

What is even more shocking is the reason why Aishwarya skipped the shoot. Says a source, “Aishwarya learnt that the Action Replayy team had decided to donate their entire amount they might win on KBC to Salman Khan’s Being Human Foundation. This is why she stayed away from the show.”

Though Aishwarya did not turn up for the show, all her other co-stars from the film, including the director Vipul Shah completed the shoot. The winning amount, Rs 50 lakh, as promised was donated to Salman’s charity foundation.”

Neither confirming nor denying the story, the channel’s spokesperson said, “No comments.”

We sent a text to Aishwarya’s spokesperson, who replied, “The story is completely untrue. As far as my understanding goes, family members are not participating on the show.”
