It`s a ‘working’ birthday for Aishwarya in Kerala

Mumbai, Nov 01: Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who turned 35 today, celebrated her birthday shooting for Mani Ratnam`s film `Ravan` in Kerala. The shooting began on the outskirts of Kochi two days ago after a delay as both Aishwarya and husband Abhishek Bachchan were occupied due to the illness of their respective fathers. However, both will now be shooting for the film non-stop for a month. This will be their third film with ace director Mani Ratnam. Abhishek has earlier worked with him in `Yuva` and `Guru`. Both films brought Abhishek, who was struggling for box office success then, critical acclaim as an actor.

Aishwarya, on the other hand, debuted in his Tamil film `Iruvar` more than a decade ago. Her last film with Mani was `Guru`. Professionally the year has been a good one for the dove-eyed former Miss World as her films `Jodhaa Akbar` and `Sarkar Raj` were well appreciated and did satisfactory business.She has been busy participating in the `Unforgettable Tour" and completing the first outdoor schedule of her second Tamil film opposite Superstar Rajnikanth in Peru.
