Akshay Kumar and Tusshar Kapoor shared sparkling chemistry, playing cops in Rajkumar Santoshi's KHAKEE. In a few scenes Tusshar managed to hold his own against an 'in-crackling-form', Akshay Kumar. Unfortunately, the two were not seen together again, barring a badly made INSAN. Was Akshay Kumar the reason and is that why Tusshar is saying that Akshay Kumar is a loser?

Well, don't read too much into the lines and we will tell you exactly why! Actually in his next venture, C KKOMPANY, Tusshar plays a character called Akshay Kumar, a journalist (crime reporter) who hosts a late night TV show called 'Khalbali', and is shown as a complete loser in life. Tusshar is quick to point out that he is very unlike his C KKOMPANY screen avatar and has a very positive attitude towards life.

The hilarious C KKOMPANY also stars Tusshar's sister, the self made and admirable Telly queen, Ekta Kapoor for the first time, along with Karan Johar. The film is all set to hit the screens this Friday along with Farhan Akhter's ROCK ON!!, Bobby Deol's CHAMKU and Sameer Dattani's MUKHBIIR.
