Sir Ben Kinsley Refused To Act With Aishwarya Rai

 Talking of Raavan, how can the conversation be complete without any mention of Sita, remarks Rapchik Rajni as she saunters into my boudoir. Matlab? Meaning, she says that she has some scooplet on Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

And the point is that the actress hasn't yet been finalised for Sir Ben Kinsley's magnum opus on Taj Mahal.

Never mind if Akbar Khan has tried and failed with his hocus-focus, Kinsley sir will be playing Shah Jahan in his costume extravaganza and was reportedly keen on Ashji to play Mumtaz Mahal.

Rajni claims to have got it from Ben saab himself that he's only confirmed the casting for Zardari Begum so far, but isn't telling yet.

So whether Ashji will play his Mumtaz Mahal or not is something we're all waiting to watch.
