As reported earlier, Sanjay Leela Bhansali wanted to make magnum opus 'Padmavati' with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan but things didn't work well. So now after years, the film is finally on floor with Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor and Ranveer Singh.

When SLB was promoting his last release Bajirao Mastani said, “Aishwarya Rai will always be my muse.“ Was that mean in his coming project Aish will make part?

Yes, the things are surrounding towards this happening.

According to sources, "Bhansali has written a special appearance and a song sequence with the former Miss World in mind for his next film, Padmavati. The film features Ranveer Singh, Shahid Kapoor and Deepika Padukone in the lead and Aditi Rao Hydari in a supporting role."

Added by source, “Bhansali spoke to Ash and they both are really keen to make it work. The song will be filmed during a 15-20 day schedule, which includes rehearsals at a suburban studio. Ash also has a few dialogues." “This will be completely different from any thing seen before,“ the source added.

If all things will be alright, then it will be third collaboration of Aishwarya with SLB.
