Aishwarya Rai seems to be having so many projects on her hand that the beautiful stunner has little time for other important movies she would love to do if she had spare dates.
The word is out that Ash may opt out of Amitabh Bachchan ’s production company ABCL’s joint movie venture with Spice Team Entertainment. Ash had reportedly expressed her interest in doing the movie, to be directed by Sharbani Deodhar.
But now reports are trickling in that the blue-eyed beauty has no dates to spare, while the movie’s director wants bulk dates to shoot the entire film in a single go.
As a result, the movie’s producer and director are considering signing other actress and have short-listed few names, one of which is that of Parineeta beauty Vidya Balan .
A final announcement of the movie’s actress would be forthcoming within days.
Other actors in the movie include Jaya Bachchan and Vinod Khanna . The two are not cast opposite each other but are married to someone else in the movie.
Ash presently has a good number of projects on her hand including ‘Dhoom 2’, Umrao Jaan, Maharani Gayatri Devi, Akbar-Jodha and Saamna.
She has completed the shooting of Jagmohan Mundhra’s Provoked in which she plays a battered wife.
Ash is presently busy working in the Hollywood movie ‘The Last Legion’.
