As soon as Sushmita Sen's directorial debut project on Rani Laxmibai was shelved, director Ketan Mehta decided to revive his own project on Rani Laxmibai.

Interestingly, Aishwarya Rai who was Sush's rival at Miss India contest, would play the role of Laxmibai in the film, according to grapevine.

Ketan had changed his mind earlier to make this film, when he heard about Sush's film on the same subject.
The film is in pre-production stage right now.
