what hypocrisy? MB behaved like a a$$ so why should she let him take advantage of her work? Dabboo has been a friend to her for 20 years and if he requests she should turn it down? WHY? Speak with some logic pls
-----------
Same person commenting over and over again with the same comment. Try and understand - the relationship has nothing to do with it. The photos were taken for a movie, Heroine. Which undoubtably came out of MB's production budget as they were done to promote the movie when she was in it. Following the fallout, she issued a legal notice that her name and pictures should not be associated with the movie. Now, those same pictures which she legally banned and wanted out of the media and public, are being floated around. If the photos were legally banned by notice (or whatever document she issued), then they shouldn't be released regardless of who the the relationship is with.

MB was not fair and Dabboo has been a friend, sure. But the legality of the pictures is what's at stake, not her relationship. One could also argue that MB wouldn't have acted the way he did if she'd told him about her pregnancy - he could've accomodated it by changing schedules, shooting etc if he'd known in advance. He must've lost $$ in that. And supposedly Aish is known for her professionalism - where was her professional courtesey then? She didn't need to shout the pregnancy to the world, but discreetly informing the director would've been courteous. And no one's telling her not to work when pregnant or not get pregnant - it's how she handled it. It was unprofessional on her part too.

@ PV - please post!

Just because a person voices their opinion they dont become sick. But because they are posting the comments as different people again and again, that too with illogical arguments, I called it 'sick'

An no, opinions are not 'true' or 'false'. Everybody has an opinion, just like everyone has a mouth. (...)

*Phewww... finally! GBU Anon. :)
I comments on articles fair & square, not because I'm a fans of some actor so I'll comment or bad-mouth the others. And I'm definitely not gonna prejudiced or make racial comments.

And if u really think her PRs post articles about her on the site, u need a reality check. Because PRs have real jobs to do rather than post fancy articles on sites like Pinkvilla (and there are so many sites like them). Again an illogical argument.

And if u call posting articles non-stop a facade, we are not making up any article. Every little thing Ash does, makes news. So obviously the media, like TOI here, is reporting it and Pinkvilla is just endorsing it, just like it does w/ other celebs.

And how do you know Ash fans spew venom on other stars? And not otherwise? Its just ur mind. We have better things to do than go to a post of a star whom we hate and spew venom there. Look who is spewing venom here for example... YOU! Pot calling kettle black eh? lol

PV pls post.

Go Ash! You're the most beautiful and one of the best actreses of contemporary cinema.

@ Kitty

Then can you explain why you keep posting worst and disgusting comments about other actors like Ranbir Kapoor ????????? I have seen it very often! But when others comment on Ash by giving their honest opinions about her you can't swallow it. practice what you preach ! Otherwise you'll be identified as a hypocrite by non biased readers on this site really soon! (or have they already?)

Oh only you have logical arguments! Is that so? Judging by your 'sick' comment we can definitely see the level of your maturity and your so called 'logic'!

Just because a person voices his/her opinion which in Ash's case is 200% true doesn't make that person 'sick'!

she/he states what's there to be seen for all of us and we all share the same opinion on Ash! And not all the comments you talk about are posted by the same person. I am so sure of that. It's just that we can see through the facade put out by your favorite and of course ! her PR people who are posting articles about her non stop on this site . There's nothing sick about expressing your opinions!!! what's so sick is that you trying to shove Ash news down our throats several times a day. As she/he and a lot of other people visiting this site including myself say why don't you all just publish a new fan site for her called Aishvilla??? Then you'll be able to rave about her and promote her as much as you want without bombarding this site with posts about her( mostly recycled old news,false news and pics) What I find ridiculous is that these so called Ash fans go spew venom on articles about each and every other actor on this site ( I've noticed that These Ash fans/PR are the first ones to post derogatory comments in order to make their favorite look good) like Kareena, Katrina, SRK , Ranbir to name a few but whenever others voice their true opinions on Ash these obsessive fans ( or should we say her PR?) go into every extent possible to attack that person. Wonder what kinds of logical arguments those are!

Lol, nothing that Ash does or doesn't do, can please everyone...I'm amazed that some people waste so much time on commenting, some even writing essays, when they don't like a particular celeb... Don't click the news then, if it bothers you so much, it's simple...I only read and comment on celebs I love/like, life is too short to occupy it with negative things.

she is no doubt naturally beautiful. Click her in any damn pose and she would still look gorgeous.

I would have preferred if she opted out of the calendar rather than using a photo from Heroine, even if it is just a close up face shot!

@Tue, 2012-01-10 15:30 — Anonymous, everybody knows that the worst and most disgusting comments, and the most passionate and obsessed haters are on the pages of Aishwarya and I'm pretty sure it's not her fans that are saying that stuff about her, so there goes your theory! But then again we'll never know who makes those comments since they are "Anonymous" LOL...

Anonymous's picture

to the detractors: she worked her ass off for whatever time the shoot lasted. She didn't get paid for it. Whatever advance she got she even returned that amount. Why should she let her hardwork go away just like that? She just didn't want MB to manipulate her pics to promote his movie. Otherwise she is fine with it. Thats y she allowed dabboo to use them. Its as simple as dat.

Anonymous's picture

@Why give Dabboo to use the pictures (even if its all legally okay), when she claimed she didn't want to be associated with the movie in anyway and even served Madhur a notice about it. How can she say she doesn't want to be associated with the film in anyway and still ask Dabboo to use the same photos?

Hypocrite much??? The photo is completely in character so what is she trying to tell us now?? That she was better for the role???

No, ITS NOT HYPOCRISY, get the point correct. If someone bad -mouths you in public, makes allegations against you, then would you like to give him the permission to use your pictures for his movie which you were kicked out of for being pregnant ? Absolutely not.

On the other hand, if someone is your dear friend since ages, you always do photo shots with him, you have a great rapport with him, AND HE REQUESTS YOU TO USE THE PHOTOGRAPHS HE HAD SHOT WITH YOU, then why should you say no?
She has problems with the movie/director, not with the photo or photographer. And she is not asking Daboo, Daboo is asking her. She is a world beauty, she does not need to ask ANY PHOTOGRAPHER to take pics of her, photographers run after her to add glory to their shots

I can't believe it, she looks younger and thinner than Kareena. She is an even better actress, dancer and beauty. Plus a much bigger superstar too. Your loss MB

Dabboo speaks about Aishwarya here.

"I shot with Aishwariya in early 2011, when she had started shooting for Heroine. I have done a small role in the film where she does a photoshoot with me.

It was shot with a mix of my lights and the lights used for the film. What this has done is it has given a different look to the photograph, as you can see in the way Aishwariya's face is glowing. I had to balance the lights because I had to make it look good in the movie as well as for my photograph.

Aishwarya and I go back a long way. I was just an assistant when she was a model. I knew her much before she started doing movies and I have always found her so beautiful. I always dreamt of shooting with her and I told myself that the day I shoot her, I have arrived as a photographer.

The first time I shot with her was in 1995, just after she had become Miss World. It was like a dream come true. She never made me feel like I was a newcomer.

She is truly one of the most photogenic and prettiest girls I have worked with and whatever she does she gives it her best. She wants to make every photograph look good and you can see that enthusiasm in her. She is very involved and wants to try something conceptual and something different all the time."

I agree with all the people saying that she has double standard,something is very strange here and her fans cant convince us once again aishwarya is trapped....
if the photographer took the pictures for heroine it means he must be paid by the producers not by aishwarya so how can aishwarya permit him to use these pictures and how can Daboo himself use them....if she has the authority to permit him to use these pictures than maybe Daboo provided her (PR) the pictures and they must be the one who issued these pictures to convince people that she looks hot for heroine and manipulated us all that Madhur is using the images to promote the film???now since she doesn't want to stay out of the lime light and the "Calender thing" she allowed to use the pictures...now are you guys still say that Madhur is promoting the film with her pictures?? lol

Anonymous's picture

Now Madhur should serve Ash a legal notice for her continued use of Heroine stills despite being sacked from the movie...Have some self-respect Ash...I expected better from you.

Most Beautiful Women in the world,have you seen every girl in the world to come down to that conclusion??
Have you, and btw beauty lies in the beholder, don't drag your opinion down others.
I agree w/anon 2012-01-11 08:10 . if you love aish so much create a fan site and go there to gush not here

The pictures are the photographer's. He has the rights, obviously. Dabboo requested her, asked for her permission and it was sweet of her to oblige as he says. She just didn't want those pictures to be used to promote the film. She didn't want to be associated with the film at all. Otherwise she is fine with it. How hard is it to fathom that?

===

Really? If she didnt want to be associated with the film then why would she 'sweetly' allow Dabboo to use her Heroine pictures?? Shes completely contradicting her own intentions to not associate with the film by allowing Dabboo to use her pictures...it seems like its okay for HER to get publicity using the Heroine stills for Dabbo's calendar but its not okay for Madhur to use the same pictures...double standards anyone????

No, she is not trying to upstage Kareena. I highly doubt she gives a damn about the film or its new leading lady anymore. And she never promoted herself as the most beautiful woman in the world. That's a laughworthy statement you made. The majority think she is the most beautiful. Everybody, from Oprah to Julia Roberts to Rajinikanth says she is the most beautiful. Now are you telling me that she has forced them to say it? :| Whenever someone calls her the most beautiful, she actually downplays it and slams it as silly talk. She's not self-obsessed like so many other actors. She would suffocate without fame? LOL. Is that why she hasn't made a single appearance for the longest time? Guess she's not missing stardom much. :D

Schmuck
she cared the most about the movie for which she hid her pregnancy..she has never been hailed as a great actress in spite of being in the industry for decades, she was desperate for eyeball grabbing role that she did that.when Madhur took her off the movie, it obviously hurt her big fat ego..just because she hasn't made a public appearance doesn't mean she doesn't care, she very much does..fame is life for her..all her moves point to the same..and don't tell me she downplays the most beautiful woman in the world!!..if she did, there wouldn't be so many people disliking her attitude..have u heard a Katrina downplay her beauty, she actually does and means it..she says i find girls walking on streets to be more prettier than she is..and there is that calmness in her..but Aish has always been arrogant and too full of herself, its pretty darn obvious that she takes the title seriously...thats why u hardly see her in public without the mandatory makeup, come on even after delivery at the stupid press conference, she has her eyes and face done, tell me have u seen a Lara do that?..even now Lara walks out without an inch of makeup or care in the world..thats the difference between some one trying to be normal and some one who thinks that she has to look the best always...she would have given instructions not be called the most beautiful at every gathering if she wanted to, but she will stick to the title until her last..and inspite of no public appearances, enough hype curiosity will be generated by her PR's to keep her in news..why else would PV publish atleast 2-3 articles about her everyday how ever irrelevant that may be..
we dont like her and we have our reasons..not necessary that whole world agrees to your obsession..why dont u guys create a fan website Aishvilla - the perfect name and just bombard it with her posts day in and out..in that you spare us from all the arguments there is here..dont think that her popularity gets her so many hits, its normal guys way of expressing their irritation..we dont worship her and for god damn sake there is more to this world than a beautiful face..i just pity your obsession towards looks..the western society is far more receptive towards other facets of a person's personality than their looks..but we will never change, its generally disheartening to see this..there is just so much more to do in this world, other than looking good!!!
