Akki-Katrina want to beat SRK-Kajol

By Subhash K Jha

Akshay is hellbent on covering the seven wonders of the world. Even as he prepares to shoot never-before action scenes on the Great Wall Of China, he is getting ready for a stint in in April in Egypt amidst the pyramids. This time, it's for song with Katrina Kaif for Anees Bazmi's Sinngh Is King.

"We'll be shooting the introductory song of the lead pair. This would be where Akshay first meets Katrina. After this the film is complete," informs Vipul Shah.

The last time a romantic song was shot amidst the blow-dried pyramids of Egypt it was between Shah Rukh and Kajol in Karan Johar in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.

Says a source, "Not surprising that Akshay wants the song shot in Eypgt. He wants to better Shah Rukh's successs score with Kajol.

Most trade pundits see Akshay and Katrina as the next most- successful jodi after Shah Rukh-Kajol. Shooting a song where the hit jodi of the last millennium shot a song isn't just coincidence.

After Namaste London and Welcome, Akshay really feels Katrina is his lucky mascot."

"But," warns director Anees Bazmi. "We aren't shooting at all the normal places in Egypt. We want to capture parts of the country other than the predictable pyramids."
