Aishwarya Rai is being considered for the role of Buddha’s wife, Yashodhara in the film titled ‘Buddha’. If Aishwarya Rai says yes she will be seen playing the said role inParis-based NRI director Pan Nalin film.

Aishwarya Rai's phenomenal performance in ‘Jodhaa Akbar’, has won her a lot of international fans.With a lot of historic international films coming her way. Director Pan Nalin who made it real big for his internationally acclaimed Buddhist crossover film Samsara, is reported to have met with the Bollywood beauty and has discussed the script of the film with her.

‘Samsara’ is about the story of a monk, who leaves his monastery in Ladakh after meditating for years to experience the pleasures of matrimony and returns to his cloister after undergoing the trials and tribulations of a commoner’s life. Nalin’s earlier crossover movie “The Valley of Flowers”,did not receive much international acclaim like his earlier movie. Unfortunately this film did not do well at the Indian box-office also.

Not defeated by this defeat, Palin has come up with another storyline, this one being about Lord Buddha. Impressed by Ash’s performance in Jodha Akbar, Palin found her to be suitable for the Yashodra’s role.

Though the director has met with Aishwarya and has narrated the story, the lady in question has maintained a dignified silence, so one cannot come to any conclusion now.
It is also believed that this film ‘Buddha’ will be directed from Yashodhara’s angle. So Ash has got a big pie in hand. Let’s see if she takes up this project. Also let’s hope that we don’t get bored seeing her do the same old traditional roles time and again.
