Another mythical ‘Jodha Akbar’ on the make.
Another Arabian Night fairy tale to be legitimized.

Kingsley to play Shah Jahan to Aishwarya’s Mumtaz
Actor Ben Kingsley, who won an Oscar for playing Mahatma Gandhi 27 years ago, is back in India. The actor plans to play Mughal emperor Shah Jahan with Aishwarya Rai as Mumtaz Mahal in the period film Taj. Kingsley, 65, last worked with Aishwarya, 34, in The Last Legion in 2007.
- Kingsley said the focus of the film would be the building of the Taj Mahal and the isolation and loneliness of the man (Shah Jahan) who built it. “All of this is held together by love and the power of love, which transcends the prison cell and even death,” Kingsley said. The actor plans to start shooting in India from the autumn of 2010.
