Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has stunned the masses with her first appearance at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival, and now the Bachchan bahu is all set to surprise the audiences, as she will be doing some high octane action scenes in her comeback film, Jazbaa, which is being directed by Sanjay Gupta. Yes, you read that right!

And though the plot of the film is still under the wraps, reportedly, Angelina Jolie’s Salt was a reference point for Sanjay, when he was writing the story. Considering Angie performed some hardcore action sequences in the film, we wonder if the Taal actor will be able to do the same. Well, let’s not underestimate the former Miss World, after all she has proved her acting prowess from being a girl-next-door in Taal to being a bold and sexy babe in Dhoom 2.

And many of you might not know this, but it was none other than Ash’s hubby Abhishek Bachchan, who convinced Ash to sign on the role. Apparently it was Abhi, who heard the script first and told his wifey to do the film.
