Randhir Kapoor to play scientist in Akshay-Aishwarya film

Randhir Kapoor who directed his lone film Henna 18 years ago and last appeared on screen six years ago as Preity Zinta's father in Honey Irani's Armaan is all set to make a comeback as an actor in a role that's been specially written for him by Vipul Shah in his new film Action Replay which goes on floors in March.

Says Vipul, "I'm a fan of Randhir and Rishi Kapoor. It was a dream come true when I got a chance to work with Chintuji in Namastey London.

Look at how many wonderful roles and films he signed after that. Now I'm hoping that after Instant Replay, Randhirji too will be doing more films."

Vipul has cast Karisma and Kareena's semi-retired dad as a scientist in his time-travel tale.

Says the director, "But Randhirji doesn't play a mad scientist with his hair flying rebelliously and all kinds of fumes and fires escaping from the lab. He plays a calm scientist lost in his own world."

Boman Irani had played a mad scientist in Love Story 2050, which was also a time travel tale!
