​From 'Ajnabee' to 'Good Newwz': Here's looking back at Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor's crackling chemistry

Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor's jodi is undoubtedly one of the on-screen hit jodis of Bollywood. Ever since the trailer of 'Good Newwz' has got released, fans could not stop gushing over the chemistry between Akki and Bebo. Recently, while talking about reuniting with Kareena, Akshay hilariously stated that making movies with Bebo is like going on a wild picnic.

The duo was last seen together in 2015 release 'Gabbar Is Back'. Although Kareena had a brief role in the film, her presence added weight to the story.

Whenever the actors have shared the screen space they have created magic at the box office. Here's looking back at Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor's crackling chemistry

2/6

Ajnabee

Filmmakers Abbas-Mustan introduced the new couple Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor in their 2001 release 'Ajnabee'. The sensuous song from the film 'Mujhko neend aa rahi hai' featuring Akki-Bebo exactly captured the wife swapping theme of the film. And, of course, Akshay and Kareena had set the screen on fire with their sizzling chemistry.

3/6

​Aitraaz

The 2004 romantic-thriller saw Akshay and Kareena portraying the role of a married couple. Their on-screen act as Raj and Priya enthralled audiences. Their love story had a third angle in the form of Priyanka Chopra. All the three actors gave their best but Kareena's performance of a wife having complete faith in her husband and fighting for his dignity in the courtroom was appreciated the most. The film was inspired by the Hollywood film 'Disclosure'.

4/6

Rowdy Rathore

In the past, the Khiladi Kumar had once mentioned that Kareena Kapoor Khan is his lucky charm and that is why he loves working with her over and over again. Kareena made a special appearance in the song 'Chinta Ta Ta' and spiced up the track. Bebo's entry was the high point of the quirky song.

5/6

​Kambakkht Ishq

The day when Akshay and Kareena started shooting for 'Good Newwz' they took up the #10yearschallenge by imitating a 'Kambakkht Ishq' pose on the sets. It looked like nothing has changed between the two. The film which they spent bickering got them the biggest opening ever then in the year 2009. Their on and off chemistry in the movie was very much appreciated by the audiences. Songs like 'Om Mangalam' and 'Kyun' also went on to become chartbusters.

6/6

​Gabbar Is Back

Although Shruti Haasan was the female lead of the film, it was an absolute delight to watch Akki and Bebo once again on the silver screen. Kareena's role was quintessential for Akshay's character in the film. The melodious song 'Teri Meri Kahani' perfectly captured their sizzling chemistry.

Akshay is now clearly on top. I can now predict that for next 24 months, Akshay Kumar’s content will rule the Bollywood. He is doing new song videos, running challanges, doing ads, Those who might have a problem might need to prepare. This is something extraordinary happening.Currently superb scripts are getting created. However none of them are going to Khans.Akshay, Ayushmaan, Tiger, Ranbir and Ranveer is taking the cream and the rest goes to Non-Khans like Hrithik, Shahid, Vicky Kaushal, John, etc.No scripts are coming to Salman. He is remaking Korean movies / his past hit sequels now. No new ideas/concepts.Aamir is also searching. No scripts are going to him. Mughal was the only one. He himself has to work on scripts like Lal Singh Chadda. There are no other script/movie on offer.SRK is now producing movies with other stars.Game over.
