the
coming

two
powerhouse
performers

have
been
lucky
mascots
for
each
other

the
box-office.
As
Dr.

and
his
nephew

Rawal
and

their
creative

17th
time
together
over
13
years!
Welcome
will
see
the
two
stars
in
another
match
of
wits
after
they
featured
together
in
a
number
of
box-office
scorchers
like
Mohra,
Insaaf,
Aarzoo,
Barood,
Angaarey,

As
noted
recently,
the

marks
quite
a
few
records
already,
with
Anil-Nana
coming
together
after
19
years,
Anil-Feroz
Khan
after
21
years
and
Akshay-Katrina
inching
towards
consolidating
their
position
as
the
most
commercially
successful
leading
pair
of
recent
times.
The
Akshay-Paresh
magic
mama-bhanja
combination
in
Welcome
is
sure
to
bring
the
house
down!
