Ben kingsley has signed two of the hottest bollywood divas for his movie which is based on mughal history.While Aishwarya will be playing the role of mumtaz mahal, Bipasha has been offered the role of Jahanara Begum, devoted daughter of Mumtaz mahal (Aishwarya rai)

“The movie is on the building of the Taj Mahal,” said Kingsley, who is producing the film. “The romance will also include Shah Jahan's isolation for years in a prison cell.”

Kingsley said his production house was currently working with a scriptwriter on the project.

He said Rai agreed to do the movie when he spoke to her during the filming of The Last Legion- a Hollywood epic about the Roman Empire.

Bipasha basu was obviously excited to be part of a Hollywood project, if BF john can do it, why not her.“It’s a very special character that Ben has asked me to play. We've already spoken about it, and now we need to work out the dates,” Bipasha reveals.

Aishwarya rai would have never agreed to play the role of Bipasha basu in any other bollywood movie.But she can't let go a Hollywood project out of her grasp
