Abhishek and Aishwarya in Mani Ratnam's next
The film will mark Mani's comeback into Hindi cinema after a long gap.
After Guru and Raavan, star couple Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan are coming together for filmmaker Mani Ratnam’s next project.
According to a source close to the development, “After doing Guru and Raavan with the couple in the lead roles, Mani has been planning a third film with them for some years now. He is very close to both of them. In fact, Ash started her career with Mani’s Iruvar and Abhishek’s career highlights are Mani’s Yuva and Guru. The upcoming film will happen after Kaatru Vaaliydai in Tamil (Cheliya in Telugu). Mani will return to Hindi cinema with his third Ash-Abhi vehicle.”
Abhishek had said in an earlier interview, “For us (him and Ash) to come together again, the script has to be really special. We can’t just be in a film together for the sake of being together.”
