Rajkummar Rao had a crush on Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

Often regarded as one of the most beautiful women in the world, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is used to receiving compliments. The gorgeous actress recently amassed another fan, it seems. Actor Rajkummar Rao, who appeared on Karan Johar’s popular chat show along with Bhumi Pednekar, revealed that he was in awe of

Aishwarya when he met her for the first time. The two starred in ‘Fanney Khan’ last year and Rajkummar said he had a big crush on the actress after meeting her. He also revealed that he was often left tongue-tied and nervous while they shot the film. In an earlier interview, he had said that working with Ash had been a fascinating and fun experience. And that while his character was in awe of her in the film, it was actually the same way in real life as well.

This year, Rajkummar will be seen in ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga’, which also stars Sonam Kapoor, Anil Kapoor and Juhi Chawla. Apart from that he also has ‘Mental Hai Kya’ opposite Kangana Ranaut. Unconfirmed reports suggest that Aishwarya has signed a Mani Ratnam film but she is yet to comment on the same.
