Akshay Kumar to romance Katrina

“We’ll be shooting the introductory song of the lead pair. This will be where Akshay first meets Katrina. The film is complete after this,” Vipul Shah, who teamed up with Aneez Bazmi for the movie, told IANS.

The last time a romantic song was shot amid the blow-dried pyramids of Egypt, it featured Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in Karan Johar’s “Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham”.

“Not surprising that Akshay wants the song to be canned in Egypt. He wants to better Shah Rukh Khan’s success score with Kajol. Most trade pundits see Akshay and Katrina as the next most-successful couple after Shah Rukh-Kajol,” the director said.
