Ash-Hrithik once again in Bhansali’s next

Nov 21, 2008

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and hubby dearest Abhishek Bachchan with their perfect Bachchan mannerisms, have often been touted as the golden couple, but when it comes to business the filmmakers simply choose to ignore this picture perfect couple. And they march ahead to cast the sultry beauty Ash opposite her reel prince charming Hrithik Roshan.
After delivering a smash-hit flick like ‘Jodhaa Akbar’, the gorgeous twosome have once again caught the fancy of yet another acclaimed director - Sanjay Leela Bhansali. The filmmaker, who faced much flak for his failed close-to-heart project ‘Saawariya’ is all set to make a spectacular return with the ‘it’ couple of filmdom.
But unlike popular belief that the director has bought the two together for his magnum opus project ‘Heera Mandi’, we have learnt that Sanjay has drawn an all-new script for the couple.

A news daily even quoted a source as saying, “Sanjay has been trying to get his Heera Mandi off the ground for a long time. Because of the film`s sheer magnitude and the hassles of getting an ensemble cast together for a single shooting schedule, he gave up and began penning his next, a romantic feature, earlier this year.”
The film that will hit floor in July this year, will have the director working with Hrithik for the very first time.Well, here’s hoping that Aishwarya’s reel ‘saawariya’ proves lucky for Sanjay!
