Aishwarya was not offered 'Padmaavat', 'Bajirao...': Report 
Aishwarya Rai, who had earlier claimed that Sanjay Leela Bhansali wanted to cast her in 'Bajirao Mastani' and 'Padmaavat' but couldn't get Khilji for her, was reportedly not offered roles in either of the films. Reports also suggested that 'Bajirao Mastani' was first announced with Kareena Kapoor Khan and Deepika Padukone was always the first choice for 'Padmaavat'.
