Aishwarya's hush-hush meet with Sanjay Leela Bhansali

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan ideally sticks to business. So, what was she doing meeting Sanjay Leela Bhansali, in a tight security zone like the sets of Padmavati?

The actress has earlier worked with the prolific filmmaker in movies right from Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, to Devdas and Guzaarish, co-starring alongside Salman Khan, Ajay Devgn, Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan respectively.

And now, she’s gone on to the sets of Padmavati to meet him. Is Ash starring in the film as well? That can’t be said till the ice-maiden melts down to make an official statement.

But then Aishwarya has refused more offers from Sanjay than she has accepted. We’re now aware of how the director has been trying to make Gustakhiyaan, on the life of poet Sahir Ludhianvi, and his relationship with poetess Amrita Pritam.

Abhishek Bachchan has shown interest in the script, and Priyanka Chopra, whose office is located right opposite Sanjay told us that she has met him. Priyanka had said, “But not for Padmavati. You guys have to know that my office and Sanjay’s office are next to each other. So we do meet more often than not.”

So, is Sanjay trying to cast Ash with Abhishek, or is he trying to get her in for a cameo in Padmavati? Or are they talking about another movie? Whatever the case may be, going by Ash’s work ethics, the meet up with Sanjay at his workplace is more than just exchanging of pleasantries.
