Ratner apparently told the host: "I want you to tell me who the most beautiful actress in Bollywood is so that I can cast her as Chris Tucker''s love interest!" When the name of Aishwarya was mentioned, Ratner said, "That the one. That's the girl I want. Next time she's in Los Angeles, I want you to introduce me."
Why did Aishwarya Rai reject Rush Hour 3?
As per several media reports, Retner did send Rush Hour 3's script to Aishwarya Rai, but the actress rejected the role because of her date issues. A few reports also indicated that Rai was not happy with the character she was offered, and the intimate scenes that were included in the script.
