Bollywood beauty Aishwarya Rai’s latest friend happens to be a horse.
Aishwarya Rai and Hrithik Roshan are presently working in Ashutosh Gowarikar’s period movie Jodha Akbar . The director has apparently asked the movie’s stars to befriend the horses they will be riding in the movie.
Ash’s horse in the film is a healthy black creature named Baadal. Hrithik gets to ride a white horse called Chandni.
Besides getting used to riding these horses, the two stars have been trying to develop a bond with these animals.
Reports say that Ash and Hrithik are often present during the morning feed of the horses. Sometimes the actors feed the horses themselves and even take them for walks.
The trick seems to be working as Baadal and Chandni have become comfortable with Ash and Hrithik.
Gowarikar is now about to shoot war scenes for which he is said to have hired more than two hundred horses, 150 camels and 100 elephants. The war will show the battle between the Mughal emperor Akbar and the Rajputs.
The film tells a love story between Akbar and Jodha Bai, a Rajput princess. Hrithik and Ash play the two roles.
While Hrithik took training in riding horses before shooting for the movie, Ash already knew how to ride horses from her role in the Hollywood movie The Last Legion .
