Akshaye-Priyanka in Dharmesh Darshan's next

After making one successful (Dhadkan [ Images ]) and two unsuccessful films (Haan... Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya, Bewafaa) with Akshay Kumar [ Images ], Dharmesh Darshan has taken a cue from his brother, Suneel. They have moved on.

While Suneel's recent Barsaat featured Bobby Deol [ Images ], Dharmesh is all set to launch a new film. And the leading man this time is Akshaye Khanna [ Images ], who has suddenly become adventurous with his selection of  roles -- from playing Mahatma Gandhi's [ Images ] son in Feroz Khan's [ Images ] movie in the making to Darshan's musical.

Dharmesh's Aap Ki Khatir [ Images ] is said to be loosely inspired from Clare Kilner's romantic comedy The Wedding Date. It will see Akshaye opposite Priyanka Chopra [ Images ] for the first time. The two were supposed to come together in Abbas-Mustan's Humraaz but Priyanka opted out.

Dino Morea [ Images ] is expected to join the cast, playing a suave womaniser.

The musical will also feature Suniel Shetty [ Images ] in a pivotal role.

"Dharmesh's Dhadkan gave me a new lease of life as an actor," says Suniel. "I'm sure this time he'll do something mindblowing again."
