There are some pairs who manage to carry the movie only based on the chemistry. Sidharth Malhotra and Jacqueline Fernandez did that with the film ‘A Gentleman’. Their sizzling on-screen chemistry and alleged off-screen chemistry got people talking about the flick but unfortunately, the film was a dud. However, the duo might just reunite for another film which is the sequel of 2002 hit thriller Aankhen or Aankhen 2. As per the latest reports, the duo is joining the cast which also reportedly includes Amitabh Bachchan, Paresh Rawal and Saif Ali Khan in the lead. Shershaah: Sidharth Malhotra to Romance Kiara Advani in a Film Based on Kargil Martyr Captain Vikram Batra.
“Sid and Bazmee have had a few meetings and they both wanted to collaborate on a film together. Although there's another comedy that Anees wants Sid to do for him, that's a solo-hero project. But right now, he wants the actor to take up Aankhen 2. It's an important character and Sid has also shown interest. Once he returns after completing his Shershaah schedule, he will sit for narration and take a final call on the same.”
The original one, directed by Vipul Amrutlal Shah, featured Akshay Kumar, Arjun Rampal, Paresh Rawal as the lead ‘blind’ characters. On the other hand, Amitabh Bachchan played an antagonist while Sushmita Sen played a supporting role. The flick was a hit amongst the cine-goers. The sequel, on the other hand, will be helmed by Anees Bazmee. Would you like to see Sid and Jacky’s pair once again on the silver screen? Tell us in the comments section below.
