Aishwarya Rai's Photo from Ponniyin Selvan Leaked
Meanwhile, a picture of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan from the forthcoming movie Ponniyin Selvan was leaked and went viral online. A picture of her in a saree-clad avatar was hit the internet through back doors.
As per the earlier reports, Aishwarya Rai would be playing the roles of Nandini, wife of Periya Pazhuvettaraiyar, the second most powerful person in the Chola kingdom, and Mandakini Devi aka Singala Naachiyaar aka Oomai Rani, the mute queen, and mother of Nandini.
In addition to it, a few clips from the shooting had also made it to the internet much to the chagrin of Mani Ratnam. So, the filmmaker has strictly instructed the team members not to post the snaps online.
Further, the makers of the film have decided to take strict action against the people who spread the leaked pics online.
Shooting in Progress
Currently, the mega-budget project is being shot in Madhya Pradesh.
Chiyaan Vikram, Karthi, Jayam Ravi, Trisha Krishnan, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Vikram Prabhu, Sarath Kumar, Kishore, and Prakash Raj are part of the movie produced by Madras Talkies.
The movie, which is based on Kalki Krishnamurthy's historical fiction novel of the same name, has AR Rahman's music, A Sreekar Prasad's editing, and Ravi Varman's cinematography.
