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