Aishwarya Rai is NOT Going to be in Heroes

By Sam | June 25, 2007 (11:40 pm) | More: Heroes Cast/Crew Updates

About a few weeks back, some Bollywood blog posted “news” about Bollywood star and former Miss World Aishwarya Rai joining the cast of Heroes for an 8-episode stint; she was supposed to play the sister of Mohinder Suresh. I read the “news” in another Heroes site, but after visiting their source, instantly thought it was crap, so I never posted it here. But word had already gotten out, and you had a ton of Bollywood-themed sites (and Indian news sites, some very respectable ones, I might add!) reprinting the story as real news.

According to Kristin at E! Online, the Rai rumors were very much junk, so don’t believe it.

Now I know some of you people have problems with Kristin’s news gathering capabilities (Math, I’m looking at you), but I’ve always taken everything she said as “rumors” until they are officially announced or confirmed by other sources. But when it comes to this news items, I’m going to have to agree with her. There’s just no evidence to think it’s real in the slightest.

Besides the fact that the original source just doesn’t check out (he almost comes out and tells us his site is not to be taken seriously), NBC would have surely promoted the hell out of Aishwarya Rai joining the cast. Can you imagine the ratings in India alone as a result???

Anyways, it would have been nice if Rai did join. She’s certainly still a gorgeous woman, and an Indian Hero would have been pretty cool…
