Jackie Shroff, who will share screen space with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in the upcoming thriller Jazbaa, years after co-starring with her in Devdas, enjoys working with the former Miss World, whom he considers a "fantastic actress".
“It’s always a pleasure to work with Aishwarya. She’s a fantastic actress and a lovely lady and my little B’s [Abhishek Bachchan] wife,” said the 58-year-old Shroff. “I think we have the same kind of tuning, we think in the same way. It’s a beautiful feeling to be working with her.”
Sanjay Gupta's Jazbaa has made news as Bachchan's comeback film, and the first look was launched at Cannes International Film Festival earlier this year. (Read our exclusive interview with Bachchan at Cannes, where she talks about her career and motherhood).
Jazbaa also stars Irrfan Khan and Shabana Azmi, and will be released on October 8 in the UAE and October 9 in India.
