I am not 'Sita' in Ravana: Aishwarya

Kolkata (IANS): Aishwarya Rai, who is currently shooting for director Mani Ratnam's film Ravana here, said her character is not called 'Sita' in the film that also stars her husband Abhishek Bachchan.

"The name of my character is not 'Sita'. I am playing a woman who has similarities with the Sita of 'Ramayana'," the actor told reporters at the press conference of her new Hollywood flick here.

Aishwarya, however, refused to give further details about Ravana.

"I can't give any details about Ravana at the moment. You will have to wait and watch. All I can say that it is an intense film set in today's time and Mani has given a totally new perspective to the art of storytelling," she said.

Asked if she is paired opposite Abhishek, Aishwarya said they never played a conventional couple on-screen.

Talking about Pink Panther 2, which has released in India on Friday, Aishwarya said the film is a "joyride".

The actor has been shooting for Ravana here since February 17. Abhishek is expected to join her soon. The shooting will continue till mid-March.
