The poster for Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's upcoming film Jazbaa – her first film since 2010 – was launched online on Tuesday, May 19.
The poster features the 41-year-old actress kneeling in the dust against a city’s skyline. “J A Z B A A. THIS IS THE FIRST LOOK POSTER,” director Sanjay Gupta tweeted.
The crime thriller is being officially launched at Cannes film festival, with both Bachchan and Gupta in attendance. The former Miss World has done “a few daredevil stunts” and has shot for the film in extreme conditions, her publicist said.
Jazbaa is the Hindi remake of the 2007 South Korean movie Seven Days, and tells the story of a lawyer forced to help a convicted killer. It also stars Irrfan Khan, Anupam Kher, Shabana Azmi, Jackie Shroff, Atul Kulkarni, Abhimanya Singh, Chandan Roy Sanyal and Siddhant Kapoor. Produced by Essel Vision, White Feather Films and Viking Entertainment, it will be released on October 8 in the UAE and on October 9 in India.

Day 3, Abu Dhabi Test: At a glance
Moment of the day Just three balls remained in an exhausting day for Sri Lanka’s bowlers when they were afforded some belated cheer. Nuwan Pradeep, unrewarded in 15 overs to that point, let slip a seemingly innocuous delivery down the legside. Babar Azam feathered it behind, and Niroshan Dickwella dived to make a fine catch.
Stat of the day - 2.56 Shan Masood and Sami Aslam are the 16th opening partnership Pakistan have had in Tests in the past five years. That turnover at the top of the order – a new pair every 2.56 Test matches on average – is by far the fastest rate among the leading Test sides. Masood and Aslam put on 114 in their first alliance in Abu Dhabi.
The verdict Even by the normal standards of Test cricket in the UAE, this has been slow going. Pakistan’s run-rate of 2.38 per over is the lowest they have managed in a Test match in this country. With just 14 wickets having fallen in three days so far, it is difficult to see 26 dropping to bring about a result over the next two.
