Aishwarya Bachchan (Rai) has achieved a lot in her Bollywood career. She is now one of the top actresses in Bollywood. However, Aishwarya Rai is a smart ambitious actress and she wants to shine in Hollywood too. So, it is a good news for Aishwarya Bachchan that her Hollywood movie ‘Singularity’ is going to be filmed from January 2008.

The long-in-gestation Aishwarya Rai film Singularity is finally set to get off the ground by early next year.

Oscar-winning director Roland Joffe, best known in India as the man who helmed City of Joy, will direct the 35-million-dollar historical drama. Large portions of the movie are scheduled to be shot at locations in India.

The revival of the delayed project, being produced and co-financed by Belgium's Corsan and India's Neelmudra Entertainment, is good news for Aishwarya fans, especially as her first genuine international film, Doug Lefler's The Last Legion, co-starring Colin Firth and Ben Kingsley, has gone straight to the home video circuit.

Singularity is just the film that Aishwarya Rai needs next year. She is getting old and Bollywood fans are never so enthusiastic to see an old actress in the lead role of the movie. Age is not such a big factor for Hollywood actresses. If ‘Singularity’ fares well in the box office then it will surely open a lot of doors for Aishwarya Rai in Hollywood.
