Ash's Stiller moment

She squashed the Bond girl rumours and disappointed Will Smith when she wasn't able to commit to his romantic comedy Hitch. However, it seems that Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan will finally be making her return back to Hollywood!

Following news of the actress shooting an ad with Titanic star Kate Winslet, the buzz is that Ben Stiller is currently busy with a script with Ash in the lead. Whilst so far nothing of the plot has been confirmed, it seems that the offer came about when deals with Michael Kirk Douglas fell through.

The actor had originally been keen to do an International Project and had finally zeroed in on Aishwarya as his lead. However, a recent diagnosis of throat cancer has left the future of Douglas's acting career in doubt and thus shelved the project, leaving the way successfully open for Stiller instead.

Whilst the former beauty queen has yet to confirm the news, a Hollywood project may be just the thing she needs after her previous disappointing venture, Raavan.
