The magazine had Sanjay and Aishwarya's interview. During those years, Sanjay used to be known as 'Casanova of the 90s’. He revealed, "My sisters warned me before I came for this session. They told me 'Don't you woo her. Don't take her number. Don't send her flowers'."

He also talked about Aishwarya, "If she stood on (the) road, they'd all come to a screeching halt. If I did the same, they'd run over me."

This issue hit the stands way before she debuted in films or won Miss World crown. And Sanjay knew about her already, which left Aishwarya surprised.

संजय दत्त की ये बात 1993 की है। संजय दत्त और ऐश्वर्या राय को एक मैगजीन का कवर शूट करना था। उस वक्त ऐश्वर्या फिल्मों में नहीं आई थीं। वह मॉडलिंग कर रही थीं और उन्होंने कुछ ऐड्स में काम किए थे।

Here is what he said, "Hey! Who doesn't know about her? Look I saw her in the Pepsi ad. In fact everyone did. Actually, my sisters like her a lot. They find her very beautiful. They've met her."

However, Sanjay didn't find Aishwarya 'hot'. Cineblitz had also quoted Aishwarya as saying, "He (Sanjay Dutt) said that I'm not hot. Oh God! What's going to happen to me?"
