Following the screening of the 2002 film at the screened at Cannes Film Festival, the Bollywood actress caught the attention of Hollywood filmmakers who were eager to cast her in their movies.<\/p>\n

One such offer Aishwarya Rai received was for Brad Pitt\u2019s \u201cTroy\u201d which needed her to dedicate around nine months to the role.<\/p>\n

In an earlier interview with an Indian media outlet, the Bollywood actress recalled the makers of \u2018Troy\u2019 asking her to lock nine months off from her calendar despite the part being very small.<\/p>\n

According to Aishwarya Rai, she turned down the offer to star in the movie opposite Brad Pitt as she could not lock off such a long time due to her previous commitments.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey wanted me to lock off 6-9 months because it was a huge film. Obviously, we have a way of looking at things like this is your part, lock off that kind of time. Of course, you understand the impact of largesse of that piece of cinema but to lock off that kind of time when you have that kind of albeit very small films here which I was committed to, I couldn\u2019t get myself to just kick that to the curb,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The Bollywood actress, however, acknowledged that missing such opportunities was a difficult thing to do.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s exciting because there are huge offers. It\u2019s difficult because you know you are walking away from possibly\u2026\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cGiven a chance, I would like to work with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, because she\u2019s a versatile actor,\u201d he said in a 2012 interview.<\/p>\n

Aishwarya Rai later appeared in several projects outside India including 2004\u2019s British film \u201cBride and Prejudice\u201d and drama \u201cProvoked\u201d among others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
