Rumours linking the two together aside, director Mani Ratnam is keen to cast Ash and Abhishek in his English venture. But sources close to the Ratnam camp are tight lipped about it. This is for the second time that Ash and Abhishek will be paired together. They first came together for Kuch Na Kaho. Ash and Abhishek were also to be seen in Bluffmaster till Ash was replaced by Priyanka Chopra. Also there are rumors afloat about Ash and Abhishek being serious about each other which neither of the parties have denied.
