Actor Rajkummar Rao who is busy preparing for his upcoming film 'Fanney Khan' said that he is both nervous and excited to romance Aishwarya Rai. The actor is looking forward to start shooting for the movie, in which he is paired opposite Aishwarya. Produced by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, the film also features Anil Kapoor and Divya Dutta.

"I have started shooting for the film, but I am yet to shoot with her (Aishwarya), though we have had our workshops and reading sessions. There is a love angle between us. I am looking forward to it, though I am nervous and excited because you have to romance the world's most beautiful woman. But it will come naturally, I am sure," stated the awestruck actor.

On the other hand, the actor was also seen at the trailer launch of his upcoming film, 'Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana'. Like his previous films such as 'Queen', 'Behen Hogi Teri' and 'Bareilly Ki Barfi', the upcoming film also has marriage as the backdrop.

When quizzed about his take on arranged marriage, the actor stated, "I totally believe in arranged marriage, I think each to their own. My parents had an arranged marriage and they remained happy. Sure, there should be freedom, no one should be forced into an arranged marriage. Everybody has the freedom to choose their own partners."

When asked if he has plans of tying the knot anytime soon, he said, "I have been getting married, not married so many times in films that I am not getting the time to get married in real life. 'Shaadi' (marriage) is like a big festival, it is like making three films. You need a lot of time for that."
