I've never said I'd never kiss: Aishwarya

The gorgeous Aishwarya Rai says that she has never said that she will not kiss on screen.

Talking to an entertainment portal, Ash when pointed of being coy on questions of sexual mores and even kissing, said, “I'm very clear -- I speak for myself. I've never said I'd never kiss, or whatever on screen. I've always maintained I'd cross that bridge when I come to it. Again, I'm accused of playing it safe. The truth is, I don't know what tomorrow holds. So I can't make a close-ended principle about it.”

Talking about her appearance in the Oprah Winfrey show recently, Ash said, When a song from one of my films, Kuch Naa Kaho , was shown on Oprah, I realised everyone out there assumes a song is a substitute for a kiss in our films. That image of coyness about our movies exists long before me. I keep saying, on all my interviews abroad, that things are changing in our cinema, though very slowly.”

Ash, who recently inaugurated the Cannes Films Festival, was blasted by some sections of the media for wearing pants at the Oprah Winfrey Show, had this to say about that: “I thought I'd wear one (sari) on the show, and packed two of them, in case Oprah wanted to wear one too. As luck would have it, my flight was delayed and I reached minutes before the show went on air! So I had no time to change, which is a pity. Americans love the garment but have no clue how it's tied.”

Ash adds she is least bothered about the criticism she faces at home from sections of the media saying, “Someone asked me why I'm politically correct, even when people hit out so openly at me. But the truth is, I've never been brought up to behave any other way. I can't say anything hurtful about anyone. I just don't believe in saying mean things. I won't feel good doing that. It's strange why being well behaved is perceived as being too 'propah' and staid. This is the way I am. I'm amazed how many people feel good hitting out at me. They're welcome to do it. Earlier, they had more leeway to deny their indiscretions in print. But now on television they look pretty ridiculous denying what they say.”

Ash, who is currently shooting in London for Provoked has two more very interesting films on hand: Raj Kumar Santoshi ‘s Saamna with Akshay Kumar , Ajay Devgan and Nana Patekar and the sequel of Dhoom – ‘Dhoom 2’ opposite Hrithik Roshan .
