After making one successful (Dhadkan) and two unsuccessful films (Haan... Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya, Bewafaa) with Akshay Kumar [Images], Dharmesh Darshan has taken a cue from his brother, Suneel. They have moved on.
While Suneel's recent Barsaat featured Bobby Deol [Images], Dharmesh is all set to launch a new film. And the leading man this time is Akshaye Khanna [Images], who has suddenly become adventurous with his selection of roles -- from playing Mahatma Gandhi's [Images] son in Feroz Khan's movie in the making to Darshan's musical.
Dharmesh's Aap Ki Khatir [Images] is said to be loosely inspired from Clare Kilner's romantic comedy The Wedding Date. It will see Akshaye opposite Priyanka Chopra [Images] for the first time. The two were supposed to come together in Abbas-Mustan's Humraaz but Priyanka opted out.
Dino Morea [Images] is expected to join the cast, playing a suave womaniser.
The musical will also feature Suniel Shetty [Images] in a pivotal role.
"Dharmesh's Dhadkan gave me a new lease of life as an actor," says Suniel. "I'm sure this time he'll do something mindblowing again."
