Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who impressed her fans and fashion police with her fabulous outing at Cannes Film Festival 2017, is likely to star opposite her husband and actor Abhishek Bachchan in Anurag Kashyap's next.

The former Miss World recently confirmed that she and Abhishek have been approached by Anurag for Gulab Jamun, to be directed by Sarvesh Mewara.

When asked about it, the 43-year-old actress told PTI: "We have been approached for 'Gulab Jamun' and they have narrated us the script." She, however, refrained from commenting whether the husband-wife duo will be part of the film or not.

Aishwarya and Abhishek have worked in films like Guru, Dhoom 2 and Raavan. The actress was last seen on the big screen in a special appearance in Karan Johar's Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, which garnered her lot of appreciation.

Post Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Aishwarya took some time off for her ailing father Krishnaraj Rai, who passed away in March. It's been a few weeks that the lady has started listening to scripts. "Personally I had taken time out for the past five months. I had taken time out for my mother and my family. I just started listening to scripts from last week and have already liked two subjects. If and when we feel the time is right, we will share that with you," she added.
