Akshay Kumar is going to shed his Katrina Kaif bug and is all set to co-star again with Aishwarya Rai after a long hiatus.

The two happening and glamorous stars will come together for Vipul Shah ‘s forthcoming production, “ Action Replay.”

Vipul Shah had a fetish for casting Akshay Kumar in all his movies but casting Aishwarya is a rarity. The last movie Aishwarya Rai starred with Akshay Kumar was Khakee.

In Khakee, Akshay Kumar played the role of a policeman. In Action Replay, the movie is more of a period drama genre. The plot is all hush hush but it has been revealed that the setting will be Mumbai of the 1950’s.

“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.” Vipul Shah said in an interview to a news daily.

Being a novel theme and a rare paring, Action Replay promises to be an interesting watch.
