John Abraham and Aishwarya Rai have never been paired together before. "But if you close your eyes you can see how good John Abraham and Aishwarya Rai will look together," says producer Gaurang Doshi who's all set to bring together the golden couple in his new mystical musical Happy Birthday.
John is looking forward to being paired opposite Aishwarya and says, "I think Aishwarya and I will make a good team. It's a great script. Sriram is good director. I am excited."
To be directed by Sriram Raghavan who earlier directed the Saif-Urmila starrer Ek Hasina Thi, Happy Birthday will go on the floors in January.
Gaurang says, "We had signed John about a year back. But we needed a popular leading lady as Happy Birthday isn't only about the male protagonist. When Ash said yes, everything fell into place. She has never been seen with John before. They look like Adonis and Venus together."
"The catchline for Happy Birthday will be, 'Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.' We needed a magical pair. John and Ash have the quality," he adds.
John seems to be on the look-out for new leading ladies to be paired opposite. In Water he's seen with Lisa Ray, in Baabul with Rani Mukherjee and in Salaam-e-Ishq with Vidya Balan.
The music of Happy Birthday is being composed by Vishal-Shekhar.
