Ash and Streep to act together?
MUMBAI:
Plans are afoot to bring Aishwarya Rai and Meryl Streep together in an American production of Chaos, Colin Serreau’s 2002 French movie.
Says a source, “They ran the concept with Meryl and Ash and they were game. They need to Americanise the theme because Chaos was a very French movie. But, yes, in principle Ash is on for this film.”
Ash is slated to play a sex worker in the film. Another international project Aishwarya has agreed to is Roland Joffe’s Singularity with Brendan Fraser.
Ash says she has asked for the final draft of the script. “Now the time factor has to be worked out. The time they want is devoted to Mani (Ratnam) Sir’s project. New dates have to be worked out. There’re so many projects that I want to do but because of the dates or a delay I can’t. There’re only that number of assignments I can take on. I’ve never done more work than I can do. I never can.”
