Rai Bachchan are rumoured to be
coming together for Shailesh R Singh's
next film based on reel-life cops.
PinkVilla reports that the two will play IPS
officers, who are married to each other.
They were last seen together in the 2007
blockbuster Guru'.
An industry source told the publication,
"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.
Singh confirmed the news but was
awaiting the go-ahead from the actors,
"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.
