Who needs King Khan when you have King Kumar…

Well what if Bollywood’s King Khan doesn’t want to work for you… what do you do… well you go to King Kumar instead.

That’s exactly what top name filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra has done. Apparently, the man behind the successful Munna Bhai flicks had been trying to get Shah Rukh Khan to work for a film under his banner. Shah Rukh initially decided he would but then later backed out. Now, with another King emerging in Bollywood, Chopra has approached the action comedy star Akshay Kumar.

Chopra approached Kumar with the idea while he was attending the success bash for Singh Is Kinng. A source reveals, “Vidhu was hovering around the Kinng Kumar throughout the party. He left no stone unturned to let him know how much he loved him in SIK and other recent releases. Vidhu’s last film was a dud and now he plans to make a commercial quickie with Akki. After making some small talk with the actor, Chopra offered Akshay a lift back home so he could talk business on the way.”

The source continues, “Akki was initially apprehensive but later on, he agreed to drive back with Chopra. Once on the road, the maker bounced off the idea of the film, which he intends to direct. Akki heard the story during the short drive from the J W Marriott to his home in Juhu but it is not clear if he agreed to do the film as his calendar is genuinely cramped up with future dates.”
