Actor Jackie Shroff, who will share screen space with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in "Jazbaa" years after featuring with her in "Devdas", enjoys working with the former beauty queen whom he considers a "fantastic actress".
"It's always a pleasure to work with Aishwarya. She's a fantastic actress and a lovely lady and my little B's (Abhishek Bachchan) wife," Jackie said here.
"I think we have the same kind of tuning, we think in the same way. It's a beautiful feeling to be working with her," he added.
Sanjay Gupta's "Jazbaa" has made news as Aishwarya's comeback film, and it also grabbed eyeballs when its first look was launched at the Cannes International Film Festival earlier this year.
The film also stars Irrfan Khan and Shabana Azmi.
Jackie is yet to begin shooting for the film, but he will start work on it June 21.
