Arshad gives a tough challenge to Akshay Kumar!

It had come as an awful news for actor Arshad Warsi for being replaced with Akshay Kumar in the sequel of 'Jolly LLB'. While he was chucked off from the project he went ahead with Aparna Singh's 'Irada'. But how would Arshad forget this so easily?

Interestingly, 'Jolly LLB 2' which is slated to release on February 10 will now clash with Arshad Warsi's 'Irada'. 'Irada' marks the debut film of Aparna as a director and she wishes to have an early release for the film. A popular tabloid quoted her stating, "Our film is ready and we are looking at an early release. We were eyeing a window next month and February 10 appears ideal." (sic)

'Irada' also stars Naseeruddin Shah and is based on the social issues of the society.

Well, this is now a clear indication that Akshay will now have a tough face off with Arshad' s film.

While there was much hullabaloo about Shah Rukh's upcoming film 'Raaes' clashing with Hrithik's 'Kaabil'. Akshay and Arshad's respective films seem to have followed the trend.
