Ash unsure about `Laawaris` number in `Houseful`

Aishwarya was approached for `Apni to jaise taise...` number, but she`s still to revert.

New Delhi: Rumours were rife that Aishwarya Rai will dance to the tunes of hit number ‘Apni toh jaise taise’, which was originally picturised on her father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan, in Sajid Khan`s ‘Houseful’. But sources close to her say that she is yet to accept the offer.

"Aishwarya has been approached by Sajid Khan but she has yet to revert to them. She is busy with the shooting of `Guzaarish`, `Action Replay` and `Endhiran`," Aishwarya`s spokesperson told reporters. Recent media reports suggested that Sajid Nadiadwala had bought the rights of the song, which is from the 1981 blockbuster ‘Laawaris’ and that he had approached Aishwarya for it. If at all the actress agrees to do the item number, it would be her third in over a decade-long career. In the past, she featured in item numbers like ‘Ishq kamina’ and ‘Kajra re’ - both the songs have been iconic in their own sense. While in ‘Ishq kamina’, she teamed up with Shah Rukh Khan, ‘Kajra re’ saw her with Amitabh and Abhishek.
