During a promotional press conference in Mumbai on Tuesday, Aishwarya was questioned about portraying her role as Nandini in the upcoming film. To which Aishwarya responded, “Beautiful coincidence na. It’s amazing na ki aisa hua bhi hai (it’s amazing to know that such a thing actually happened). In fact, yes even Nandini in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam was very, very memorable. She has lived on people’s hearts and I am so, so thankful that I got to play Nandini then too and she has remained special for the audience and of course to me. And that was with Sanjay Bhansali ji and today of course with my Mani garu I got to play Nandini in Ponniyin Selvan. I mean that’s just tremendously a blessing that I got to play such strong women, such layered women and women with character that touches the lives of so many women out there. There is a relatability, so I’m very very very grateful.”
