Bollywood beauty Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Tollywood superstar Rajnikanth together released the music of upcoming film Eeram which is a romantic thriller graced with suspense.

The film is produced by Shankar whose directorial venture ‘Endhiran’ which casts Rajnikanth and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in lead roles. Rajnikanth found it nice and exciting working with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Almost 85 percent shooting for the film Endhiran has been completed.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is still riding high on successful and long-standing international endorsements. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is not fussy about food at all. The beautiful lady can anytime go for Barbecue Chicken and is fond of eating fish with rice.

Aishwairya & her command on lingo

Aishwarya Rai has successfully accomplished the rendering of dialogues in Tamil for ‘Endhiran’ and ‘Raavan’ with an ease.

Aishwarya Rai is such an artiste that she never faced a problem while speaking while speaking regional languages.

When she was acting in the Bengali film Chokher Bali she never felt difficult speaking Bengali with diction. But since the voice should be in the same wave length as her voice was dubbed and released.

Her belief that art has no language has always made it easy for Ash to speak Tamil and other languages.

And her other motivation was working with South superstar Rajnikanth.

People who had acted with Rajni had shared their experience with Ash. Now she wanted to experience it herself.

Shankar, the director of Endhiran had offered Ashwairya roles in all his films except Boys. But due to her call sheet problems she was not able to act.

That is also the reason that she was not able to act with Rajni earlier. But this time she had decided and set aside dates to act with Rajni.

And post working with him, she would say that if he is a super star in acting, he is a super man in person.

Endhiran will take us to the next generation of cinema era.

It passes from Aishwarya to Katrina

What was Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s, is usually Katrina Kaif’s next. First it was a jewellery line and then a doll endorsement that was originally meant for Ash, but was later bagged by Katz.

Now news from the admen has it that a soap that film stars endorse, wants Katrina to sign up. “It is not confirmed whether she will replace Aishwarya,” said an ad guru, “but, yes, Katrina is being considered.”

Another strong indication is that Katrina may probably be signed by the hair product company and also the watch brand that the world’s most beautiful woman endorses.

But Katrina denies being in the market for these brands. “It’s not true,” says Bollywood’s lucky charm who is having a golden run at the box-office. She admits that Aishwarya is one of the biggest and most prestigious names in showbiz, but denies any career-mapping like the Bachchan bahu’s.

Yet, ad circles say wait and watch, “Katz’s brand team has been advised to get her the endorsement for both the hair product and the watch.” These could well be the actress’ next big announcements that would take her to another level, internationally.

The charming actress will be seen in The Pink Panther 2 which is a English movie that will complete in 2009. For 2010 she's busy shooting for Endhiran, a Tamil flick which is under Post-production and Ashokavana. Raavan and Action Replay are also in the list.
