Last year she was seen in just one film — Hollywood's Pink Panther. But this year Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has four films lined up for release — two southern projects Ravana and Endhiran as well as Action Replay and Guzaarish, collectively costing over Rs3 billion (Dh241 million).
While her bilingual sci-fi film Endhiran, starring southern star Rajnikanth, is said to be made at a budget of Rs1.25 billion, approximately Rs450 million has been spent on Mani Ratnam's much-awaited Ravana, which is set for a June release.
Vipul Shah's Action Replay costs around Rs600 million and if reports are to be believed, UTV is shelling out close to Rs800 million for Sanjay Leela Bhansali-directed Guzaarish for which Rai-Bachchan is currently shooting along with Hrithik Roshan in Mumbai.
The actress has been busy shooting all these films for the past one year and even suffered health problems due to her hectic schedules.
Though each role is different from the others, it remains to be seen which one of these strikes gold at the box office.
