Ash is really the flavour of the month. She hogged all the limelight amid this recent brawl between Salman and Vivek. Right now she is in Hinduja hospital and recuperating from her injuries. But that doesn't deter her from hitting the headlines. If all goes well, Aishwarya Rai may be pitted against none other than Pierce Brosnan as the Bond girl for his upcoming Bond movie.

Her secretary Hari Singh confirming news of the "unbelievably grand project," he says, "Yes, for Aishwarya, it's something unbelievable. An iternational coordinating agency has approached us on behalf of the studio making the Bond movies." Singh says that the people who came down to meet Aishwarya were supposed to sit with them and hammer out the details of the deal after the shooting for Khakhi ended. But her accident during the shoot near Nashik has led to the postponement of this discussion.

"They were waiting with me on the sets and watching the rehearsals, with Aishwarya, Amitabh Bachchan and others," says Singh. As of now, Singh says, the agency people have gone off to Shirdi, to see the famous pilgrimage spot as well as to pray for Aishwarya's speedy recovery. "They are keen to cast her. Let's see what Aishwarya has to say. We'd have to rework our earlier schedules," says Singh.
