Bollywood beauty Aishwarya Rai met Hollywood star Jean-Claude Van Damme at the recently concluded IIFA Festival in Dubai.
Reports have it that Aishwarya met the Belgium martial arts star on her one-day visit to IIFA. Van Damme was a guest at the event and he also presented the statuettes at the award function on the closing day.
It is still not known what Ash and Van Damme discussed. But sources suggest at the possibility of the two doing a movie together.
According to Hellomagazine, Jean-Claude is "curious" about Bollywood and is keen to know some top stars from Hindi movie industry.
There is also grapevine that Van Damme is thinking of roping in Ash for his latest flick ‘Asterix At The Olympic Games’, the release of which is planned to coincide with the 2008 Games in Beijing.
If the deal is struck, then we might see Ash acting alongside French actor Gerard Depardieu, Claudia Cardinale and football stars like David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane in the film.
Ash is already likely to work with Hollywood’s Will Smith in a movie. Ash and Smith met in February this year when the latter visited India.
Ash will also be seen in The Last Legion , in which she plays a warrior princess. The film, directed by Doug Lefler, stars Colin Firth, Ben Kingsley and Thomas Sangster.
