“The two have had discussions before, the meeting in Cannes gave them just the excuse to bond over films, India and Bollywood,” said source. Even Martin invited the bollywood diva for an exclusive dinner.

Martin owns a film company “World Cinema Foundation” and he was there at Cannes for presenting his latest film, ” the Italian classic Il Gattapardo” directed by Lucino Viscomti.

Martin was very impressed by Ash since he watched her performance in Bhansali’s “Devdas’ and the another reason behind considering Aishwarya for the lead role in his new film is his keen interest on restoring Uday Shankar’s classic dance-ballet film “Kalpana” because he finds Aishwarya is the most suitable actress for the central character of Kalpana.

Ash will attend the dinner hosted by Scorsese this Sunday and there they will talk about the film script and other things and according to sources, multiple discussions wth hollywood filmmaker points that Aishwarya will most likely accept the offer.

However, Hollywood is not an unknown place for Aishwarya. She has alreay worked in hollywood films: “Mistress of Spices”, ” Bride and Prejudice”, “Provoked”, “The Pink Panther II” etc.
