While the first-look posters of all the characters have been out, a behind-the-scenes image of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan as Nandini from the upcoming Mani Ratnam film has been making rounds on social media. In the picture, Aish can be seen exuding her royal charm as she sports the elegant ethnic attire.
