Garam Masala pair together?

Has the Garam Masala combo -- Akshay Kumar and John Abraham -- signed their next film together? Reportedly, Kabir Khan, director of the critically acclaimed Kabul Express, has teamed the two hunks in his forthcoming film, which is expected to be a thriller.

�I�ve started developing a new idea. I started writing 10/15 days back. But the casting isn�t in place yet,� Kabir tells me, �Yash Raj [the producers] doesn�t believe in signing stars till the scripted in locked. Once we�re okay with the script, the next step is to choose names that would fit into the film. Subsequently, the availability factor comes in; the actor ought to have the required dates for the project. We haven�t reached that stage yet, so casting Akshay and John is ruled out.�

But there�s no smoke without fire. �I think people are confusing the casting of Tashan with my film, since Akshay has been signed for it and my brother-in-law is directing the film. In fact, someone asked me a similar question the other day [whether Akshay was starring in the film]. Sure, my film will star sought-after names, but I have no clue who�d step in till I complete the script,� Kabir clarifies.
