Why did Aishwarya Rai turn down 'Raja Hindustani' role?
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Miss World 1994, was initially offered the lead in the 1996 film Raja Hindustani. She declined due to her pageant commitments, and Karisma Kapoor took the role, earning nationwide acclaim. Despite missing this opportunity, Aishwarya went on to build a stellar Bollywood career, becoming one of India's most admired and iconic actresses.
