Revealed: Aishwarya Rai's leading man for her comeback film

If you think you won't see Aishwarya Rai Bachchan on the silver screen again since she has become a mother, banish those assumptions.

For the 39-year-old former Miss World, backing out is never an option.

We hear that director Sriram Raghvan wants to make a thriller with Ash but with no Khan. Varun Dhawan is to be the lead actor. The boy has had his share of fame from ‘Student Of The Year’ and is now working with his father David on the comedy film ‘Tu Mera Hero’.

The film will be produced by Saif Ali Khan.

Saif and Raghvan have worked together in ‘Ek Hasina Thi’ and ‘Agent Vinod’, and this would be their third project together.

Saif decided not to act in and give the chance to newcomer Varun.

Shooting is going to begin early next year and this will be Varun’s first thriller film. The age difference is assumed to not be a problem and we hear Ash will not be portrayed as a cougar.

It's a comeback for her in a way.

The actress will romance an actor much younger, but this is not uncommon. If the then 64-year-old Amitabh Bachchan could romance the 18-year-old Ziya Khan, then why should Ash be left behind? She has eternal beauty on her side and might be able to pull it off.

Raghvan has taken the responsibility to bring this unusual couple together on the silver screen and let's see how successful he is.
