I never said I don’t like Aishwarya, in fact, I’m a fan! I just said I don’t like being compared with her. She is a highly accomplished lady and it’s not fair to her to compare her with anybody either. I would rather be the best version of myself than be a copy of someone else.

Cheema had gone on to add, “Aishwarya Rai is a highly accomplished, beautiful, and unique person. She does not need to be compared with anyone.
