The industry is such a small place, apart from this, after my mother's accident, I don't even have time to spend with my family, I am not the kind of person who would deny a big thing like marriage. If this had happened, I would have proudly announced my marriage to the world. Apart from this, where is the time to get married? All this is absolutely nonsense.''

salman khan and aishwarya Rai reportedly broke up in 2002 and they never worked together again after that. In an interview with simi garewal in 2012, aishwarya talked about her breakup with salman and said, “I think I have pretty much shut it out. I think I would not want to look at it in any way. Especially on a public platform. I would really not want to do that.” When asked if she feels negative about the past, the actress said, “I have banished my past. It is a thing of the past and needs to be left there. I am not a solo artist… I have my family, my close ones, people I love and care about a lot. So there is a clear wall there. Yes, there is, and there is no denying it.”
