Queen of Bollywood - Aishwarya Rai is Back

The former Miss World, Bollywood glamour queen, heartthrob of millions, and an actress with zeal of creativity-Aishwarya Rai, is back in India after a brief stint in Hollywood and is now ready to rage a storm by her forthcoming releases.

The beauty with brains, Ash was found to comment-‘Hollywood can wait’. This gives an indication to the fact that Aishwarya Rai has understands her priority quite well.

As regards Hollywood, The Last Legion & Provoked are the two films ready to see the light of the day this year. Aishwarya Rai, it seemed has started to believe in playing safe. Speaking about her future projects in Hollywood, Ash said, ‘I really want time to decide. I don’t know what will come my way. I will go through the scripts; I will look at the dates and only then will sign new movies’. She has now imbibed the art of believing in the power of uttering ‘No’. She expressed the view that, ‘’ When I am not convinced about something. I simply say no’.

Aishwarya Rai has got a number of films in Bollywood queued up. Among them are- Jodha-Akbar by Ashutosh Gowarikar, Guru by Mani Ratnam and Sarkar2 by Ram Gopal Varma. But as of now, J.P. Dutta’s Umrao Jaan and Dhoom 2 by Sanjay Gadhvi are the talk of the nation. This is the season of remakes in Bollywood starting with Don and Sholay; and Ash can’t be absence in the club of remakes. The Aishwarya Rai starrer Umrao Jaan is all set to hit the silver screen very soon. In this film, she will do what Rekha did in its original version in the 1980’s. However, the wait and watch factor of this remake like any other remakes is to see who excels-the old or the new. As of now, it could only be speculated that Ash performs a real treat for the eyes.

Ash, however, is not willing to entangle into the controversy of her comparison with veteran actress Rekha. She rather said that she has a great respect for Rekha. ‘I consider it a privilege to actually play the role that Rekha is actually known for and I am very lucky to be spoken about in the same breath as her,’ she says.

Dhoom 2 by Sanjay Gadhvi also features Aishwarya Rai, but in a totally different incarnation from that of Umrao Jaan. Her branded westernised look in Dhoom 2 might ravage many hearts. With all these in stock, 2007 seems to be a year earmarked for the paragon of beauty, Aishwarya Rai. Best of luck, Ash.
