Well the last time that this couple appeared on the screen together, romantically that is, was some eight years ago, when they came together in 'Asoka'. The film was not a commercial success but the Shah Rukh Khan and Kareena Kapoor jodi did come in for a lot of praise. Unfortunately, the only other times they worked together was in films like 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham', where they were not paired opposite each other; in Farhan Akhtra's 'Don The Chase Begins Again' and Priyadrashan's 'Billu'. But now it seems that they will again be seen together on screen. The film in concern is SRK's next home production, 'Ra1', which is said to be a superhero, action thriller. It seems that Priyanka Chopra too was eyeing the project but SRK had other ideas. The actor producer is already believed to have spoken to Kareena about the project and the actress has conveyed her eagerness to be a part of 'Ra1'. Anubhav Sinha, who last directed the flop 'Cash', has written the film and will be directing it for Red Chillies Entertainment. Of course! there has been no official confirmation about Kareena being signed on for 'Ra1' so far, but work on the film has begun. Since the film will be an action thriller, Sinha is already said to be in talks with leading stunt directors from UK as he wants to plan the stunts and action scenes around SRK's bad back. They have to be constructed in such a manner that SRK does not strain his back again. Anyway, it seems that Priyanka's loss will now be Kareena's gain. This will be a blow for Priyanka as she has consistently been bagging all the top banners and top directors and winning a lot of accolades in the last year or so. She would have loved to have a feather in her cap, like a SRK film.
