Aishwarya approached to play a grey shaded role

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who is currently shooting for KriArj Entertainment’s forthcoming film, Fanne Khan, might team up with producers Prernaa Arora and Arjun Kapoor again for a film to be helmed by Bang Bang fame Siddharth Anand. If the former beauty queen signs the project on the dotted lines, she will play a grey character in the yet-to-be-titled movie.

 Though no official confirmation has been made as yet, a source reveals to an entertainment portal, “Prernaa and Siddharth’s film will be a slick, stylish thriller with Aishwarya as the protagonist. Aishwarya has liked the concept as the actress and Prernaa get along very well. In fact, Aishwarya had attended the producer’s birthday party on December 9. Prernaa had mentioned earlier in her interviews that she is planning another film with the actress.”


“This is the one that she has approached Aishwarya for and is keen that the actress does it. It’s a grey role with various layers to it and requires a powerful performer. Ash plays a woman who goes through an interesting transformation. It’s a role the actress has never played before. While she has played roles with grey shades earlier including, Khakee, Dhoom 2 and Sarkar Raj, this one will be the most challenging so far”, added the source.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s next Fanne Khan releases on Eid next year. The Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra directorial also stars Anil Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao.

What Britain’s ban on strangulation porn really means and why campaigners say it could backfire

Highlights:

  • Government to criminalise porn that shows strangulation or suffocation during sex.
  • Part of wider plan to fight violence against women and online harm.
  • Tech firms will be forced to block such content or face heavy Ofcom fines.
  • Experts say the ban responds to medical evidence and years of campaigning.

You see it everywhere now. In mainstream pornography, a man’s hands around a woman’s neck. It has become so common that for many, especially the young, it just seems like part of sex, a normal step. The UK government has decided it should not be, and soon, it will be a crime.

The plan is to make possessing or distributing pornographic material that shows sexual strangulation, often called ‘choking’, illegal. This is a specific amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill. Ministers are acting on the back of a stark, independent review. That report found this kind of violence is not just available online, but it is rampant. It has quietly, steadily, become normalised.
