Mumbai, Now that her problems with the customs department have ended, there are joyful tidings for Bollywood's beauty queen Aishwarya Rai. She is back in Jaipur shooting for Ashutosh Gowariker's "Jodha-Akbar" with Hrithik Roshan."It's going great!" Aishwarya exulted from Jaipur as she prepared for the day's shoot.So, has she done any horse riding and sword-fighting as yet? "None of the above. But I rode an elephant for a scene. And his name was Lakhi.After 'Dhoom 2' and its hi-tech ambience and accessories, entering a world of elephants and Mughal grandeur is a true culture shock. And a real challenge for both Hrithik and me after 'Dhoom 2'," Aishwarya told IANS. "But what's the life of an actor without challenges? I'm at a stage in my career where I need to constantly re-invent myself."
About the elephant ride, Aishwarya explained with a giggle, "It wasn't exactly a unique experience. I've ridden an elephant before for Gurinder Chaddha's 'Bride & Prejudice', though very briefly. "In 'Jodha-Akbar' everything is far more elaborate. I guess I must be the only actress of my generation to have taken two elephant rides."
