Shankar approached the former model for the female lead role in his forthcoming film ‘Robot’, but Deepika is reported to have charged such a high fee which imagine for producer.It may seem to be hard to believe, but the truth is that ‘one film wonder’ Deepika Padukone is proving to be expensive than former Miss World Aishwarya Rai to the film producers. Before her entry into Bollywood, Deepika was talked about more because of her string of boyfriends, but today she is also in the news for demanding very high rates for acting in films.

The film producer Shankar offered to Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan for the role of robot, but there is no confirmation whether the actress has said yes. Ash is basically running a tight schedule.
Aishwarya has just completed shooting for an international project ‘Pink Panther – 2’ and ‘Sarkar Raj’ after completed the magnum opus ‘Jodhaa-Akbar’. At present, she enjoy holiday in the ‘pink city of Jaipur in Rajasthan with her husband Abhishek Bachchan and mother-in-law Jaya Bachchan.
