Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan, who turned 41 on Saturday, has many special things to look forward to. While her family is sure to make it a memorable birthday, Sanjay Gupta, the director of Jazbaa, toiled to put together a premature teaser trailer of her movie.
“It was an idea that came to me very late. Why not put together a three-minute teaser of Jazbaa and present it to her? I made sure she didn’t get to know about it as I slogged for 18 hours a day to get it ready in time,” Gupta said.
The teaser of Jazbaa was just one of the many gifts lined up for Rai-Bachchan on her birthday. If a source is to be believed, her husband Abhishek Bachchan was birthday shopping for his wife in Dubai where he was for the premiere of his new film Happy New Year, and their daughter Aaradhya put together a card specially designed for the occasion.
“This year, Aishwarya has a lot to celebrate during her birthday. Her husband’s new film is a super hit. And Aishwarya is ready to make a comeback to acting with Sanjay Gupta’s Jazbaa,” said a source close to the Bachchan family.
When asked what plans she had for her birthday, a source said: “No big bash has been planned as such. Ash will be with Abhishek, her parents, brother and bhabhi [sister-in-law], Abhishek’s parents and Aaradhya.
“A trip to the temple is also on the anvil. Other than that, Aishwarya was in no mood for a big celebration this birthday.”
