Gossip mills never sleep! When she got married, the media went into a tizzy speculating that it was the end of her flourishing filmy career.

Nothing like that happened for sure. And now, as Aishwarya Rai is pregnant, curiosity abounds whether she will continue acting post her delivery, or will she sit at home doing diaper duty.

Of late, it’s learnt that director Sanjay Leela Bhansali has paid a visit to Ash and the reason is not only friendliness and fondness for the actress, but also a film.

Sanjay and Aishwarya have worked together in three films, and all of them were well-praised by the audiences. Discussing a film at this stage when Aishwarya’s due date is next month, it’s apparent that they both are thinking of a movie.

On the other hand, director Raj Kumar Santoshi, who has kept his movie Ladies and Gentlemen on hold because he only wants Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan to work in it, is also waiting for Ash’s confirmation, which will only come once she delivers the baby.

What do you think? Will Ash make a comeback on silver screen, and continue acting after pregnancy? Or, will she succumb to her motherly duties? Well, if she can work during her pregnancy as she did for a few days in Heroine, and later also shot for a soap ad in Bangkok, why won’t she be acting in films after her baby is born!
