Akshay Kumar gets to romance a younger actress again; this time it’s model-turned-actress Anushka Sharma.

In the film Patiala House, Akshay plays an aspiring cricketer Parghat Singh Kahlon and Anushka is his ladylove Simran.

In the film you will get to see Akshay as a simple guy who is trying to make his dream of being a cricketer come true. Anushka, true to her image, gets to play a girl-next-door, but not only does she look simple, but also modern. In the movie, Akki runs a shop but wants to play cricket. Though his father, played by Rishi Kapoor, is strictly against his aspirations, he triumphs in the end. The movie is based in London and narrates the story of a traditional Sikh family settled there.

Will the chemistry between Akshay and Anushka appeal to the audience? The duo is coming together for the first time; check them out in Patiala House as they get jiggy, romance and laugh together. The movie’s trailer will release along with Akshay’s Tees Maar Khan on December 24. Patiala House will release on February 11, 2011.
