Sushmita wants Ash's role?

The grapevine has it that Bollywood superstar Sushmita Sen is set to launch her own production company.

There were also rumours that she planned to make a film on Rani Laxmibai and intended to play the title role. It is said that, she had approached director Dr Chandraprakash Dwivedi to direct the film.

"She wanted to make the film under her banner and had done thorough research on the valiant queen. But My hands are full with Prithviraj Samyukta. So it is impossible for me to take up another film," says Dwivedi.
