Can anyone identify this movie poster of Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai?

Can anyone tell me the name of the film poster in the background of this recent press photo of Aishwarya Rai?

It's from Umrao Jaan, here's a better poster image.

Ah, thanks for the info.

She has a bit of a strange pose/expression in that poster, doesn't she?

I’m offline a couple of days and that’s when all the Indian questions get posted!

The first rule of Bollywood Movies—there are no rules of Bollywood movies. So, just sit back and relax, and enjoy the ride. (Did you like the movie jca??) Her pose/expression (I haven’t seen the film unfortunately), might’ve been to convey whatever larger-than-life emotion she needed to convey during that shot—especially if it was during a dance routine, when there are a lot of hand movements, and facial expressions, along with a host of other gestures;)
