Akshay Khanna confessed in 2017 that he finds his 'Taal' co-star, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, so stunning that he can't take his eyes off her. He described the feeling as staring 'like a lunatic,' an effect no one else has on him. Khanna and Rai Bachchan previously starred together in 'Aa Ab Laut Chalen' and the critically acclaimed 'Taal'.
