Abhishek and Aishwarya to romance again for a cop drama?

Bollywood’s hot couple Abhishek Bachchan and his wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will come together after seven years in a film, produced by Shailesh R Singh (Tanu Weds Manu, Aligarh and Simran among other films). The movie will be directed by a debutant director and it will see Aishwarya and Abhishek coming together on screen after Raavan (2010). They will play the role of IPS officers who are married to each other. Last time they had essayed a married couple was in Guru (2007).

A close source reveals, “The film is based against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh politics, based on a true story and about two IPS officers, who are husband and wife. It’s their love story and journey. Abhishek has liked the story and given his nod to the film though he is yet to sign the contract. Aishwarya Rai has been approached for the female lead and will be hearing a story narration soon. She has expressed interest in the story but as Aishwarya takes time on her scripts the film is on hold. The producers have been waiting to give her a story narration for almost two months. Shailesh’s first choice is Aishwarya as he thinks she will be wonderful in the film. Both the roles have equal weight and are performance-oriented.”

The source adds that the long wait made Shailesh and his team think that Aishwarya wasn’t interested. “They have to start shooting from December so the creative and production team wanted to approach another actress but Ash has been traveling too; just last week she finally gave them a date to hear their script.”

Are you planning to make a movie with Abhishek Bachchan? Shailesh R Singh reveals, “Yes I have approached Abhishek and he has shown interest in the film. We are discussing with Aishwarya’s team and will be giving her a narration soon. She has conveyed to us that she’s interested in meeting us and hearing the story. I am planning to give Aishwarya a narration soon. I would definitely love to make a film with Abhishek. I had wanted to work with Abhishek for a long time but we got a good story now. Abhishek and I are both excited about the story. He is a superb human being and a great actor. The subject is strong and befitting his persona. I would love to work with Aishwarya in this film too as she suits the role. We cast actors in films keeping in perspective whether the roles suit them or not. I like to cast the actor according to the character.”

Sweet love story Gulab Jamun!

There’s buzz that Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan might come together for a new project.

The Jr. B and his wife are eyeing Sarvesh Mewara’s meethi love story titled Gulab Jamun. Phantom Films will produce the coming-of-age story with a twist, and if Ash and Abhi say yes then this will be their first movie together since 2010’s Raavan. Fingers crossed the love saga turns out to be as sweet as its title suggests it will be!
