She wears the man pants with swag, and he sexily flashes red stilettos. She gets the moolah to keep the kitchen fires burning, and he wears the apron to dish out his best. Together, Ki & Ka make a firecracker of a couple on screen. Ever since the trailer of the film (directed by R Balki) released, their cutesy, lovable pairing has caught everyone's attention. Some time ago, Arjun had spoken about how he is a Kareena Kapoor fan. Well, he still can't stop lauding her with praises, though he says his 'fan boy' comment was misconstrued. “I have known her for a long time. For me, she has never been Kareena Kapoor the star, the actor. She is a friend, with who I can talk about all kinds of things. I said I was a Kareena fan, but I didn't mean it that way. I said it in a matter-of-fact way, not as a fan who is in awe and wants to click selfies. I have tremendous respect for her work, because I think she has changed the mould for actresses in our country. It is a taboo that post marriage the career of an actress changes, but Kareena has completely defied that. She can confidently pull off a Ki & Ka along with a Bajrangi Bhaijaan,“ says Arjun.

Well, Kareena can take a bow, but she, too, has compliments galore for her co-star. “I don't even think he should say that he is in awe of me, because actually we are very good friends. I guess that's why our chemistry works. I respect his opinion on films and on a lot of things. Apart from that, I think he is one of the most talented boys. I don't see anyone else playing my husband in this film. Arjun will shock a lot of people with this role.“
