Description:
Remember the truly endearing 2006 romantic comedy Pyaar Ke Side Effects (PKSE) with Rahul Bose playing a commitment-phobic singleton whose wide-eyed romantic girlfriend, Mallika Sherawat wants nothing more than marriage and babies?
A sequel to this much-loved film has been in the offing for some time. Finally, director Saket Chaudhary is ready with the script.
But sorry Rahul, in the PKSE sequel it's Akshay Kumar who is all set to take over the role of Siddharth Bose, the Bong with the roving eye, who can't dream of settling down with one woman. Producer Pritish Nandy says, "When we planned the sequel, Akshay Kumar was the first and only choice. He has that roguish charm which can take Sid's role further, not only through one sequel but also a couple of others."
The producer has met Akshay and got his green signal. "He loves the script and we've agreed to work together. We just need to work out some basic details like dates and finances," adds Pritish.
Fans hoping to see Mallika Sherawat with Akshay Kumar are in for a disappointment. Mallika has apparently declined to star in the sequel. Pritish wants to pair Sonam Kapoor with Akshay in the PKSE sequel.
