Lara Dutta is more than happy these days. She has just tasted success with a nondescript film like 'Andaaz'. But the pretty lass is giving all the credit to Akshay Kumar. "He is such a sweet co-star", exclaims Lara.

The two can be seen spending a lot of time together these days. Their new found intimacy has provided enough fodder to the gossipmongers. "We're good friends because we share love for sports and adventure together" says Lara while shrugging off all the rumours.

Given her phirang accent and looks, some of us were even dubious of her future prospects in Bollywood. But Akshay has just tackled that problem also. The pretty lady has just signed three films in last one week. She will also be doing a cameo in Big B, Aishwarya starrer Khakee, courtsey: Akshay Kumar.

Is anyone out there who can tell Mrs Kumar, what's going on? Twinke, oh Twinke, Where are thou?
