Not Aishwarya Rai but Kareena Kapoor in ‘Shuddhi’

Sources close to Aishwarya Rai deny that the actress was being approached for the film. On the contrary, Kareena Kapoor Khan, who was apparently the first choice for the role, is reportedly the lead actress opposite Hrithik Roshan in Shuddhi.

In fact, it’s even learnt that Kareena Kapoor has already allotted her dates to the film, which will roll by the year-end.

Now the question arises: when will Aishwarya Rai be back on the silver screen? A few days back at the launch of the new showroom of Kalyan Jewelers in Pune, Ash cleared the air. “I didn't go anywhere so how will I make a comeback. Somehow I do not understand the word. I have just stayed away from films. Once I sign a film, a formal announcement will be made,” Aishwarya is quoted as saying.

Now as her toddler is growing fast, the new mom can manage time to devote to her career. Also, she is getting back into shape. Indeed Bollywood awaits its most beautiful actress Aishwarya Rai!
