Whether or not you remember the film or its plot, there is no way you can forget Aish's stellar performance. No, it's not about a role but rather a dance number that she did. The film's song 'Ishq Kameena' saw Aish showing off her best dance moves. This song had gone down as one of the best dance numbers of that year.

Bunty Aur Babli (2005): Even before Aishwarya became the 'Bachchan Bahu', the actress had appeared in a song with Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan in the film 'Bunty Aur Babli' starring the latter opposite Rani Mukherjee. Till date, 'Kajra Re' - the song which Aish performed, is one of the favourite songs of all Bollywood buffs. In fact, during the wedding of Mukesh and Neeta Ambani's daughter, Isha Ambani, Aishwarya and Abhishek had danced on this song.
