Director Nikhil Advani wants to break the ice between first time co-stars Akshay Kumar and Anushka Sharma by sending them on a dinner date together.Anushka Sharma and Akshay Kumar team up for Nikhil Advani’s next big venture, a romcom titled Patiala House. Nikhil last directed the Akshay Kumar starrer Chandni Chowk to China that tanked miserably at the BO. The news of Akki teaming up with Nikhil did take the industry by surprise but Nikhil explained that the concept of Patiala House was conceived even before CC2C which both had readily agreed to be a part of in the future. Patiala house also stars Akki’s mother- in-law Dimple Kapadia who plays his onscreen mum in the film opposite Rishi Kapoor.
Anushka Sharma made her debut with the Shah Rukh Khan starrer Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and the actress who stars opposite Akki in the forthcoming Patiala House has rarely interacted with the action superstar. This being the reason behind Nikhil’s decision in sending both his leading stars on a dinner date in order to familiarise themselves with each other. Nikhil has already organised a dinner date between the two actors at a five star hotel in the city and spoke of the matter saying, “Its true, I want them to be comfortable with each other so that the chemistry between them while shooting can feel genuine. Akshay and Anushka haven’t had the time to familiarise themselves with each other and some alone time together can help them break the ice.” Whether Twinkle would have issues with the two actors bonding with each other is just a matter of childish talk for Advani as he knows that she’s too mature to have such thoughts in her head.
Patiala House is rumored to the story of a joint family residing in Southhall, presumably, in Patiala House. Buzz was that there was not one surd but a total of 32 sardars residing in the house. While some say that the head of the family will be played by Dara Singh, others says that Patiala House’s patriarch is Gurkreeat Singh Kalon (Rishi Kapoor) who rules and runs his family life just like a prime minister would run a government. He is a strict disciplinarian whose authority and rules are not questioned by anybody in Patiala House. Every addition in the family; be it a cousin or a cousin’s cousin all get accommodated in Patiala House and every new wedding results in the house and family getting bigger and bigger. Nikhil had last spoken about the concept of the film saying, "The entire concept of the film has been conceived by Rahul Nanda, son of famed writer and novelist Gulshan Nanda."
