Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to feature as Indian Madonna in ‘Fanney Khan’ song

Gorgeous actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is all set to reunite with Anil Kapoor in Atul Manjrekar’s musical drama ‘Fanney Khan’. Aishwarya is playing a singer in this film and if reports are to be believed, the actress is all set to shoot for a grand song which will be choreographed by none other than the celebrated choreographer, Frank Gatson Jr. Frank has previously worked with international pop icons such as Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce and Rihanna.

Apparently, this will be the first time when Ash will be shooting for a song mounted on such a big scale in which her character will be styled on a popular pop icon. Apparently, the film will feature Ash as “Indian Madonna”. Talking about this dance number, director Atul Manjrekar told Mumbai Mirror, “Aishwarya plays a huge pop icon who’s extremely popular with the youngsters. Her character is a fabulous dancer and singer who performs on the global stage. While fleshing out her character, we began referencing a bunch of choreographers who do international live shows. Frank is among the best in the world and we decided to approach him.” (Also Read: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan shares adorable photos on Father’s Day)

I’ve been extremely lucky with my cast as none of the actors turned me down.” Sharing about how he got Frank on board, the director shared, “Frank was excited at the opportunity to work with Aishwarya whom he knows of and immediately came on board.”
