Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Jackie Shroff to re-unite in Jazbaa after 13 years

Mumbai: The director of the much-awaited film, which also marks the come back of the gorgeous Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Sanjay Gupta may have pranked the media in the past but he is no more in mood for pranks.

Sanjay recently puzzled everyone by tweeting a mysterious post on the social media that said, “Day-after a very special actor and a dear colleague of many years joins the cast of JAZBAA. Guess who? PS. April fool is over.”

He left the media wondering who the ‘special actor’ could be but the cat is out of the bag now. Popular star of the past Jackie Shroff is going to grace the sets of ‘Jazbaa’ with his effervescent charm.

The 58-year-old actor is said to re-unite with the lead actress of the film, Aishwarya, after their last film ‘Devdas’ in 2002. He will also be re-uniting with Sanjay after Jung (2000), the film they both worked in together.

Jackie will also be seen in Karan Johar's 'Brothers' this year, starring Akshay Kumar and Sidharth Malhotra.

‘Jazbaa’ also stars Shabana Azmi, Irrfan and Anupam Kapoor besides the actress.
