Akshay Kumar to replace Saif Ali Khan in ‘Chef’ remake?

Eros International had confirmed Saif Ali Khan as lead in Bollywood�۪s remake of ��Chef�۪ (2014). However, it�۪s not emerged that Akshay Kumar could replace him. The film would then see Raja Krishna Menon reunite with Kumar after the succesful ��Airlift�۪ (2016).

Talking to Bollywood Hungama, a source said, ���The makers of the film plan to replace Saif with Akshay, thanks to his working chemistry with Raja Krishna Menon that was evident in Airlift. Besides this, Akshay is a better fit for the role as compared to Saif, given that Akshay once was a cook in Bangkok�۝.

Kumar will also be seen next in ��Rustom�۪ and ��Housefull 3�۪.
