/> "Who says I look incompatible with Shahid?" Vidya for once protests beyond her mild nature about their pairing in Aziz Mirza's latest which she's currently shooting abroad.

Her co-stars range from Saif and John to Ajay, Akshay Kumar and Shahid.

"But my Prince Charming will have to be away from the industry," the vivacious Vidya warns.

She is now enjoying working with Shahid Kapoor. " I loved working with his father Pankaj Kapoor in Raj Kumar Santoshi's Halla Bol. And I think Shahid is a bundle of talent."

"We're doing Aziz Mirza's film together. Aziz Saab makes such wonderful working-class romances. As for Shahid, people are raising the question of our on-screen compatibility. All I'll say is, wait and see."

Remind her that she resembles Aziz Mirza's favourite heroine Juhi Chawla, and Vidya laughed delightedly. " Juhi and I do have the same business manager (K.S. Sanjay). I love Aziz Saab's Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman and Yes Boss.

The one I'm doing with him is such a sweet and tender film. They're entertaining and socially conscious. I'm blessed to be working with directors like Mani Ratnam, Raj Santoshi and Aziz Mirza."

As for her much-discussed bonding with John, Vidya brushes it off as... "Only a professional relationship. After Salaam-e-Ishq we're doing one more film together. We don't share a social life after working hours. But I guess since we had lots of fun on the sets, people have been talking about our bonding.

I just hope people don't start whispering about me and Shahid. Such loose talk gets awkward when your co-star is attached elsewhere. "
