April 19, 2010, (Sawf News) - Aishwarya Rai and Akshay Kumar's great chemistry in the upcoming period comedy has director Vipul Shah wondering why the two have not been paired earlier.

The two featured together in Khakee (2004) but Aishwarya was paired with Ajay Devgan in the film.

"Akshay and Ash look terrific together. I am surprised that no one has thought of casting them as a romantic pair. They are outstanding," Shah tells IANS.
