Aaradhya gets her own vanity van

Starting next week, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will be sweating it out on the sets of Jazbaa. But she won't be alone.

The actress who has been on a five-year haitus since her daughter was born, will have Aaradhya with her on the sets and can rush back to her three-year-old between shots.

The film's producer-director Sanjay Gupta has been kind enough to get a special vanity van for her daughter. That's where Aaradhya will chill out when her mother is working, happily sipping fruit juices straight out of her own mini fridge, frolicking in a special play zone with its own swing and slide or listening to stories from the books scattered around. And when she's tired, she can snooze in a custom-made cot surrounded by soft toys.

Confirming this, the Shootout At Wadala director told Mirror that his two children, four-year old son, Shivaansh and two-year old daughter, Dalai, will definitely keep Aaradhya company in the play area. "I am a father myself and understand Aishwarya's responsibilities as a mother. I want the vanity van for my kids and hers," he pointed out.

The doting father has left no stone unturned to make sure that the trio enjoy themselves in the vanity van. "It will have all that you mentioned and more. And it will be really spacious with no furniture with edges or any sharp objects," he informs.

Ash who was last seen in the 2010-film Guzaarish, is playing a lawyer in the women-centric film. And to make sure that the actress gets enough family time, the cast, which incudes Shabana Azmi, John Abraham and Irrfan Khan, will not shoot during weekends.

"We will shoot from Monday to Friday. It is a Hollywood-style schedule with the cast shooting five days a week and the production team working through the weekends and holidays. That way the actors' family life won't be affected," says Gupta.
