Aishwarya Rai's tantalising, sultry item appearance in Ishq kameena is a far cry from the dignified, classy Paro of Devdas. The song picturised on her and Shah Rukh Khan is expected to ensure housefull advance bookings at the BO.

As an aside, Rai completes a hatrick of special appearances in 2002, with Shakti -- The Power. She earlier did guest roles in Vijeyta Films' 23rd March 1931-- Shaheed and Bharat Shah's Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam.

Her earlier special appearances include Dharmesh Darshan's Mela and Aditya Chopra's Mohabbatein.
