Aishwarya Rai Bachchan on playing Nandini again in her career

When asked about the fact that she is going to play Nandini again in her career after playing it once in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan replied, “Nice coincidence after all. It’s great na ki aisa hua bhi hai. In fact, even Nandini in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam was very memorable. She has lived in people’s hearts and I am so thankful that I got to play Nandini back then and she has remained special to the audience and of course to me. And that was with Sanjay Bhansali ji and today of course I got to play with my Mani garu Nandini in Ponniyan Selvan. I mean, it’s just a huge blessing that I get to play such strong women, such layered women and women of character who touch the lives of so many women. There is a recognisability, so I am very grateful.”
