When Emraan Hashmi Insulted Aishwarya Rai’s Beauty And Called Her Plastic, But He Apologised Later

Aishwarya Rai’s beauty is unparalleled, but she was once called ‘plastic’ by actor, Emraan Hashmi. Read on to find out why!

Bollywood actress, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is often regarded as one of the most beautiful women on the planet. The diva of Bollywood has time and again left us spellbound with her unparalleled beauty. Whenever Aishwarya makes an appearance, people go crazy about her beauty. Moreover, Aishwarya has been ruling the silver screen for decades now, mesmerising the audience with her acting skills.

There is no denying the fact that Aishwarya Rai is the epitome of beauty and grace. However, did you know that once actor, Emraan Hashmi commented on Aishwarya’s beauty and called her plastic? The actor’s comment shocked the entire nation as it was unacceptable. Moreover, when Aishwarya got to know about it, she started hating Emraan Hashmi and never ever shared the screen with him.

Though Emraan Hashmi prefers to stay away from the limelight, he once made an appearance on Karan Johar’s popular talk show, Koffee With Karan 4. During his stint on the show, he and his uncle, Mahesh Bhatt nailed the Rapid Fire round. However, when the show’s host, Karan Johar asked Emraan to name an actor/actress that comes to his mind when he hears the word plastic. To which, the Tum Mile actor quickly gave Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s name.

When the show was aired, Emraan’s comment didn’t go well with Aishwarya’s fans and media critics. Reportedly, it had ripple effects on Emraan’s career, and he went out of his way to apologise for it. In an interview with the Hindustan Times, Emraan talked about his ‘plastic’ comment and clarified that he had made that comment to win the gift hamper on the controversial talk show. Adding that he knew that it would make headlines, Emraan said:

“I didn’t mean it. I’m a big fan of Aishwarya. It’s the format of the show. I cannot not say things and not win the hamper. I love her. I have always been a great admirer of her work. I knew people would make big deal out of it… so what, people make a big deal out of nonsense all the time.”

However, Aishwarya didn’t forgive Emraan for his remark on her beauty. If reports are to be believed, she refused to sign on to the film, Badshaho because Emraan was attached to it. Moreover, later in 2019, in an interaction with Filmfare, when Aishwarya was asked about the worst thing anyone has ever said about her, she revealed that it was being called ‘fake and plastic’.
