Mastani` Aishwarya to romance `Bajirao` Shah Rukh

Mumbai: If rumours are to be believed, Aishwarya Rai will star opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s next.

Ash is keen to get back to work post her delivery and has given her nod to Sanjay’s film. The filmmaker recently went to visit Ash and her baby and also narrated the script.

Buzz has it that Bhansali is all set to revive his dream project ‘Bajirao Mastani’ with Ash and SRK in the lead. While Ash has given her nod to the film, the shooting will only start next year.

Initially when Bhansali had announced the project in 2003, Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai were supposed to play the main leads but now it seems Sanjay has decided to cast his ‘Devdas’ hero- Shah Rukh Khan.

If things go according to plan then SRK-Aishwarya Rai would be seen together on screen almost after a decade. Their last film was ‘Devdas’.

Apparently, Bhansali has already spoken to Shah Rukh Khan about the project, and the superstar has shown keen interest.

Can’t wait for this one!
