Entertainment - Action Replay for 'Ash-Akki'

After Khakhee, the duo will be seen in Vipul Shah’s new film.

Akshay Kumar and Aishwarya Rai will team up again in the forthcoming film Action Replay. They last came together for Rajkumar Santoshi’s Khakee, which released over four years back. Arjun Rampal has also been signed for this Vipul Shah project. The team will begin shooting in February next year.

“Undoubtedly, Akshay is Vipul’s favourite. But this time he wanted to cast Ash opposite him. Katrina was definitely on the list but Ash was the first choice,” says a source.

The insider adds, “Action Replay will combine a contemporary setting with a period look where Mumbai of the 1950s will be recreated. Nitin Desai will do the set design. He will replicate the time period by constructing roads, cars and houses over six acres of land in his Karjat studio.”
