Akshay Kumar, who has been in the news for being the new blue-eyed boy in Farah Khan's professional life will play TEES MAAR KHAN in the film that will be directed by the choreographer-turned director.

Akki will play the role of a street smart Khan in the film that has been written by Farah's husband Shirish Kunder. Akki has also cleared the air about the much talked about replacement of SRK in Farah's film career. He admits that he has known the family for many years and that this new equation should be seen in perfect professional sense without making any controversies out of it.

TEES MAAR KHAN is all set to go on the floors by March 2010.
