When Aishwarya Rai Bachchan teams up with Mani Ratnam, they always share a special bond. From Ash’s debut feature Iruvar.

She and the film-maker have been very thick and looks like in her forthcoming movie, based on the modern interpretation of the Ramayana, Aishwarya will have another reason to fondly cherish her relationship with Mani Ratnam.

The actor has been bowled over by A.R. Rahman's compositions in the film, specially a track called Rancha where she did an action sequence in the song.

Bollywood traditionally has not looked at incorporating action scenes in songs but things are definitely changing as innovations with visualisations are on the rise.

Ash says, "To me it will always be a recall of a very fiery, feisty experience again on hearing it. One would have imagined of this the way Mani would visualise it but it’s incredible how he has brought about this inherent passion turmoil storm within individuals and within interpersonal energy within these two characters in the given situation."

The actor adds, "I thoroughly enjoyed it because of the experience of physically having this kind of encounter which you can calla kind ofaction sequence but a very passionate one again. Santosh (Sivan) has done magic with it, even he enjoyed it thoroughly so I am totally going to say that it was just fabulous visualisation-very different and very individual but absolutely amazing."
