Annu ChanchalApr 21 2007

Is her life, so far, inspirational enough to set one's mind to make a film on it? May be, yes! Otherwise why on the earth would someone think of doing so?

Well, Aishwarya Rai or Mrs. Bachchan, has been successful to inspire a director to come up with a movie on her life.

Shakeel S. Saifee, is all set to direct a movie and claims that he has earlier made a couple of flicks like 'Feel the touch' and 'Khariddar' substantiating his cause. On being asked about the idea of the movie on Ash, Shakeel replied,

Making a film on Aishwarya is my way of wishing her on her wedding. Moreover, I feel that Ash is a role model to aspirant female artistes, who wish to make it big in Bollywood. She has shown to the world that women in celluloid-world can make it big by their steep talent.

Further inquired about the plot of the film, the director revealed,

The movie will be based on Ash's success as a model, grabbing the Miss World title, making it big in Bollywood, followed by various remarkable incidents of her life. It will also consist of the episodes, wherein Salman Khan and Vivek Oberoi will be highlighted. And finally, the film will take her to the new turn, where she ties the knot with junior Bachchan.

Though, we know the events that have happened in the lady's life until now, yet it will be fun going through it all over again. Ash's character will be called 'Mahi' in the movie and her screen name would be Aishwarya and she rules it. A wealthy business tycoon and not an actor, plays Abhishek Bachchan's part in the movie. Salman Khan's character will be called Max, slipped into a painter's robe. And a collegian's role, aspiring to become an actor, will be spared for Vivek, who turns out to be a bad-man in the film.
