Aishwarya Rai makes Bengalis Go crazy


Shooting has been proceeding at a hectic pace for Mani Ratnam's Raavan starring Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai. The entire unit is currently stationed in Kolkata, and sources report that fans line up from as early as 5 a.m. just to have a glimpse of the former Miss World and follow her to the ghat where she is shooting.

An interesting snippet is that for a specific sequence, Aishwarya had to shoot in a boat and the entire ghat was filled with onlookers; several of them even tried swimming towards the boat just to get a closer look at the beauty queen. In fact, the unit members had a tough time handling the crowd as fans kept shouting 'I love you'. Immediately after Abhishek arrived, the 'I love you' chant changed to boudi (sister-in-law in Bengali). This amused the entire unit, and every one, including Mani Ratnam, burst out laughing!
