Rajeev romances Bond girl

Remember Rajeev Khandelwal? Well, he’s back for another stab at Bollywood fame with Rajeev Jhaveri’s Fever. In the film, he plays an assassin who loses his memory, but not his ability to lock lips with the ladies.

Gauahar Khan is paired opposite him and the film also sees him getting hot and heavy with Bond girl Caterina Murino and British actress Gemma Atkinson (she plays Lisa Hunter in the ongoing Hollyoaks).

This makes Rajeev Khandelwal the first Bollywood leading man to romance international actresses of some renown. Superstars Aamir Khan (had the unknown Alice Patten opposite him in Rang De Basanti) and Hrithik Roshan (was paired with the known-in-Mexico Barbara Mori in Kites) haven’t had such luck.
