Finally, there is a sign that Aishwarya Rai ’s much-awaited British movie Provoked will hit the theatres soon.
It is a film we all have been waiting for a long time. Even though it was completed a long time back and has even been screened at this year’s Cannes Film Festival in May, there have been no signs of the film’s release all these past months.
But now there is a positive development. The film’s distribution rights have been acquired by Eros International. This means that the company will distribute the film in UK, US and India.
The film’s release date will soon be announced by Eros Intl.
‘Provoked’ has Aishwarya portraying a real life character.
The movie’s story is inspired by the life of Kiranjit Ahluwalia, a Punjabi woman married to an Indian in the UK. Kiranjit was a victim of domestic violence and was tortured by her husband for ten years, which provoked her to kill him. The courts in Britain first sentenced her to life imprisonment, but later reprieved the punishment.
