You’re gonna go out there an understudy, but come back a STAR!

Director Gurinder Chadha thinks that BRIDE AND PREJUDICE is going to make star Aishwarya Rai, already a huge star in her native country, the “toast of Hollywood”:

Ask her about Aishwarya’s acting prowess, and she answers, “Impeccable. This film is going to launch her in a big way globally. I made a star out of Parminder Nagra (lead in Bend… ). Ash is going to be the next one. By this time next year, Ash will be the toast of Hollywood, I am sure.”

BRIDE AND PREJUDICE, according to the article, will be released in India and the U.K. on October 8. The IMDB reports that it will open in the U.S. in December, though we suspect that might be a limited release to qualify it for the Academy Awards.
