hrithik roshanAfter wrapping up the shooting of his forthcoming venture Kites, Hrithik Roshan will begin shooting for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s yet untitled next with Aishwarya Rai in coming 2009 summer. Hrithik we have learnt is super excited to do this not just because he will complete his hat-trick of working with Aish but because he has been genuinely floored by the script of the film and is eagerly looking forward to shooting for the film.

Hrithik simply can’t stop raving about Sanjay Leela Bhansali and the script that he written for his film and of course his role in it. This will be Hrithik’s first venture with the Black director. Hrithik has seen Bhansali’s earlier works and is keen to work with him. Bhansali is also looking forward to work with Hrithik as well. It is going to be a hat-trick for Bhansali as well as this will be his third venture with Aishwarya Rai after Devdas.

Bhansali was in Goa recently finalizing locales for the film. The film will be Bhansali’s directorial venture after Saawariya. Meanwhile Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s next prodcution venture Chenab Gandhi is all set to go on floors in Mumbai very soon. Bhansali’s assistant Vibhu Puri will direct the film starring Amitabh Bachchan, Vidya Balan and Hurman S. Baweja.

Bhansali and his Black writer Bhavani Iyer have written the film. The plot revolves around three characters. It is learnt that Chenab Gandhi is inspired by the story of Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan, India’s freedom fighter who was known as the Frontier Gandhi. Bachchan will be playing the principle character in the film.

Aishwarya Rai Pink PantherAishwarya Rai’s sartorial sense has often come under the scanner to negative reviews. But recently she has been dazzling the world with fine designer wear that she has flaunted at the premieres of her latest movie- Pink Panther 2

Ash who has a 10- minute role in the movie starring Steve Martin, has looked stunning in her well cut gowns.

In Berlin, Ash was seen braving the chill in a pink dress with a heart-shaped sequined bodice hugging her slender frame.

And she didn’t just pose for the shutter bugs; she even took out time to talk about the film that’s sweeping all the awards Slumdog Millionaire.
“Good luck to the entire team. It has received so much appreciation of course based in India. There’s a lot of Indian talent in it. Rahman has won his Golden Globe and he’s a wonderfully talented musician. It’s wonderful to see the world wake up to his talent,” says Aishwarya.

Hubby Abhishek Bachchan was however naughty in his comments on Ash’ s new movie, “We were at the premiere of Pink Panther 2 and it was great fun. It s a hilarious film. Steve Martin is a genius. I am very jealous of Ash. He is someone I have been idolizing when I was growing up. And Ash gets the opportunity to work with the likes of Steve Martin and Jeremy Irons!”
