'Aishwarya graceful dancer than Mallika'

Mallika Sherawat sure has sex appeal. But she can’t match the dancing skills of Aiswarya Rai .The two ladies are acting in Mani Ratnam’s latest release Guru . The movie has both Ash and Mallika in two different songs that showcase their dancing skills.Mallika plays a dancer from abroad and appears in a slightly sensuous number called ‘Maiyya Maiyya’. Ash, on the other hand, is introduced in the film in the song ‘Barso Re’.Dance instructor Brinda, who has choreographed the steps for both Ash and Mallika in the film, is appreciative of Mallika’s dancing skills, but she also asserts that Ash is more nimble and graceful in dance movements.Not many know that Ash has been trained in Indian classical dances and began shooting for ‘Guru’ right after Umrao Jaan in which she played a courtesan with immaculate dancing skills.Choreographer Brinda is quoted as saying: "Mallika is very talented, but when compared to Aishwarya she comes second place. Even in small movements, Aishwarya is brilliant." Mallika has just a walk-on part in ‘Guru’ while Ash plays the movie’s leading lady.
