Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who is 37 is in big dilemma. She is planning for motherhood but before she retires from film and concentrates on her new journey, she wants to deliver a mind-blowing and astounding performance. Currently, she has two good projects and she has to make a choice between these two projects. One is Vishal Bharadwaj’s film opposite Hrithik Roshan and the second option is Madhur Bhandarkar’s flick ‘Heroine’.

Aishwarya has heard the narration of Madhur’s ‘Heroine’ and she liked the script but not yet signed the dotted lines. The actress had four releases in 2010 but three of them is rated below average and the Tamil version of ‘Robot’ was a blockbuster. So before she takes a break from film, Ash wants to surprise her audiences with a scintillating act.

Ash and Abhi desperately wants a baby and both are giving a serious thought to extend their family.

Aishwarya Rai and Hrithik Roshan: Call of William Shakespeare

Guzaarish actors Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai took a long time before working with each other in ‘Dhoom 2’. But once they did, their pairing which was being considered dubious simply, scorched the silver screen.
They recaptured the magic in Ashutosh Gowariker’s ‘Jodha Akbar’ where they sizzled yet again in the garbs of the royal figurines. And Sanjay Leela Bhansali got them together again for the 3rd time for his ‘Guzaarish’. And ecstatically so, they haven’t disappointed!

Aishwarya and Abhishek plan to start a family next year 23 Jun, 2009 11:07 am ISTlMUMBAI MIRROR Print EMail Discuss Share Save Comment Text: Aishwarya and Abhishek A lot of people in the industry have been wondering why Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has been working so hard lately even as she balances her time between her two sets of parents at Jalsa (the Bachchans) and La Mer (the Rais). Fact is that Aishwarya is in a hurry to finish up all her pending assignments so that she can keep a part of the year 2010 free for family affairs, and that includes motherhood. A source close to the couple said, “The two of them are fed up of relatives, strangers and relative strangers asking them when the stork is visiting. Secretly, they feel pressurised. It’s as if their parenthood is a public issue. Even when they are at airports waiting to board flights, over-exuberant ladies rush to them with an inquisitive look on their eager faces. Even before these fans open their mouth, Abhishek knows exactly what the question is, and he gets visibly annoyed. Aishwarya handles such over-inquisitive attention far more graciously.” Luckily there has been absolutely no peer pressure on Abhishek or Aishwarya about parenthood from either side. Neither the Bachchans nor the Rais are the type who badgers their children asking when they will start a family. But Aishwarya already has a plan, and parenthood probably comes next year when she completes her pending assignments, and that includes a parade of topnotch films including Vipul Shah’s Action Replay, Shankar’s Robot, Mani Ratnam’s Raavana and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Guzaarish for which Aishwarya starts shooting in Goa in August, followed by Abhinay Deo’s Crooked. In addition there are filmmakers like Rohan Sippy, Vishal Bharadwaj, Rituparno Ghosh and Ashutosh Gowariker waiting patiently in the queue to sign her. A source said, “This no doubt is the busiest phase of Aishwarya’s career. Such a flurry of assignments has never been seen before in any married actress’ life and she’d be foolish to let such opportunities slip by. Luckily, Abhishek is thoroughly supportive of her career. She wants to complete as many of these assignments as she can to before she becomes a mother. Because once she gets into that role she wouldn’t want any other distractions. That, Aishwarya is sure of.” Question: Do you think Aishwarya will click at the box-office even after starting a family?

What could not happen seven years back is happening now. Vishal Bharadwaj had unsuccessfully tried to make a film with Aishwarya Rai in 2002. That project could not materialize, but both Ash and Vishal – respectful of each other’s talents – promised they would work together whenever a right project came along.

Well, that project has now come along and is set to take the shape of a film. After finishing his Kaminay with Shahid Kapur and Priyanka Chopra , Vishal would work with Ash. The project is not likely to go on floors soon, but will roll by the end of this year.

Before that Ash has a number of films to shoot for. She is presently committed to Mani Ratnam’s Ravana and Shankar’s Robot . She is set to pair with Akshay Kumar in a Vipul Amrutlal Shah film. She has also given her nod to directors Abhinay Deo (director of Delhi Belly ) and Rituparno Ghosh .
