Aishwarya Rai gave some easy life to other contemporary actors like Priyanka Chopra, Vidya Balan, Kareena Kapoor and the likes as Ash was keeping a low profile as far as her celluloid career was concerned.
In the course of the last 3 years, younger actresses have grabbed the Filmfare Award starting with Kareena Kapoor (Jab We Met) and then followed by Piggy Chops (Fashion) and lately by Vidya Balan (Paa). But, all this while, Aishwarya was calm akin to a sleeping volcano ready to explode any time. And the time has come for the volcano to erupt and roar again with the ferocity of a wounded tigress.
Yes! 2010 is bound to belong to Mrs Bachchan as she is geared up to invade the silver screen with a cluster of films of varying genres:
1. Ravana- This Mani Ratnam film has been making the headlines for quite some time. A modern take on the epic Ramayana, the tale has been told with a difference and with a modern touch. Interesting to note that the pure Sita (Aishwarya) will be abducted by her real life hubby Abhishek Bachchan who will essay the notorious character of Ravana.
2. Enhiran- This film from South Indian shores will see Ash paired up alongside veteran Rajnikant in a science-fiction flick. Supposedly, it’s a film that revolves around a Robot taking on humans.
3. Action Replay- Pairing up with sexy Akshay, Aishwarya will sizzle again in this Vipul Shah’s thriller that boasts of a strong screenplay.
4. Guzaarish- 2010’s most anticipated film, it marks the comeback of renowned director Sanjay Leela Bhansali and the much-loved, screen-scorching pair of Aishwarya-Hrithik. The film’s script is afresh where a married nurse falls in love with a paraplegic man portrayed by the maverick Hrithik Roshan. The film will be a test of Aishwarya’s acting mettle.
Hey readers, kahan kho gaye (lost in her thoughts). It’s still some months to go before you can gape at her perfect face. Now, I would like to raise an interesting debate. Out of the above 4 flicks, which film do you think can bring Aishwarya the Filmfare trophy?
