Aishwarya Rai

Ace cinematographer Rajiv Menon captured some really beautiful moments between Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Mani Ratnam’s ‘Guru’. Now Rajiv is all set to direct Bollywood’s most talked about couple in his next film.

Reporters spoke to the South based cinematographer who confirmed the news. “Yes…Abhishek and Aishwarya are starring in my next directorial venture titled ‘Dhun’. It’s a film where music plays a very important role. The film goes on floors sometime in June this year.”

Quiz him on rumors that the film is similar to the Amitabh-Jaya Bachchan starrer ‘Abhimaan’ and he says, “I think Abhishek has already clarified this. There is no similarity except the fact that the characters in my film also play musicians.”

The film is being produced by Eros International and Rajiv’s good friend and A.R. Rahman would be composing the music for this musical drama. One will have to wait and watch if after the melodious music of ‘Guru’, Rahman can once again come up with some interesting ‘Dhun’ for this film.
