Aishwarya Rai Bachchan called her own choice to perform hot scenes with Ranbir Kapoor in the recently released KJos Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. As per all rumours of her kiss with Ranbir in film was a just rumour.

Aish In an interview to India Today said, "No, I think.. in that I'm referring to the fact that when I did Dhoom, I remember I did that just around the time there was also the talk of possibly working in the West, and I was declining some wonderful work in the West because um, I personally also wasn't comfortable with the idea of intimacy on celluloid, but I keep referring to everything as, I think to the audience, everything is relative to how much they are exposed to. So when there's this huge influx of (kissing scenes) they've seen so much, that I think somehow (sic) now the audience has also become, pretty uh, they've.. they've gotten used to all of this visually. Uh, but at the time, I said okay let me first do, let me kind of maybe explore that turf a little bit, on an Indian movie, and so Dhoom was where you know I kind of explored the area..."

On getting positive responses from the audience, is it unexpected, "No, I mean the response of the audience and critics and all was obviously I mean there, you saw the results in the movie itself, people kind of loved the movie and all of that, but uh..there was some kind of, there was a little bit of uproar that Yashji had shared with us, which at the time was surprising, but it was topical about, (sic) there's just this immense, but it's weird...it came from a place of great love.. and uh, towards me, I mean it's almost like people felt I belonged to everybody, and it was from that protective, possessive love, that there was a bit of , a bit of chatter and talk around, and a bit of a reaction, so um.. it's.. so what i mean is.. it's all relative, when you kind of see with the times, but um, here we are."
