Aishwarya: Why Should I Use The Treadmill When I Can Run?


When you're helming Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's comeback film, there's a lot of pressure on you to deliver. And Sanjay Gupta is not taking any wrong steps.

Even when it came to the shoot of the film's poster, Sanjay had it planned to the T. The professional that she is, she too came with her own set of preparation!



The story goes, the actress was required to shoot for a poster, which sees her running. Now how do we capture a running Ash and make it look authentic in a still poster?

The director and his team decided to have her running on a treadmill and capture shots. So a treadmill was brought in and everything was set well before the actress walked in.

No sooner did she arrive on the sets that the concept was explained to her.

But wait... we're talking about Aishwarya here. She didn't become one of the finest actresses just like that. Anyone who has worked with her will vouch for her eye for detail.

Ash told the Jazbaa team that she wouldn't shoot on the treadmill. 



"I can run and you can take the shots. What's the need for a treadmill?" she argued. She even pointed out how shooting on a treadmill will mar the authenticity that they were looking for.

Come to think of it, she had a valid point too.

So the team agreed to shoot it as per her suggestion. And what happened of the treadmill? Well, it was deemed inconsequential.
