GRAPE VINE

Akshay Kumar & Shilpa Shetty

When `Dhadkan` was released, the movie became a blockbuster because of the apparent chemistry between the then alleged couple Akshay Kumar and Shilpa Shetty who had set the silver screen ablaze.

And now after almost 15 years, the hit on-screen pair have come together to launch their new venture in the home shopping industry, reports suggest.

Shilpa's husband Raj Kundra has entered into a partnership with Akshay for a 24/7 celebrity-driven home shopping channel. It has also been learnt that Akshay and Shilpa have posed for a photoshoot together for the launch.

While Akshay married Twinkle Khanna in 2001 (just a year after 'Dhadkan' release), Shilpa married Raj in 2009.
