While they are currently looking for a female lead, we hear that renowned actress and wife of Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, is ready to play the role. But apparently, Abhishek wants a younger actress to play his lead. The actor insisted on looking for a younger and fresher face despite Aishwarya agreeing to do the film. According to a source close to the actor, they think that Aishwarya, who recently turned heads with her role in ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’, looks too mature to play the role.

The actor-actress couple recently went on a little vacay with daughter Aaradhya after a little controversy involving Aishwarya in ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’.
