Not many may have observed but one of the heroes with whom Vikram Bhatt has worked most with is none other than Aftab Shivdasani who unfortunately continues to have hide and seek at the box office inspite of consistence performance for last few years.

Another factor that us consistent about Aftab is the appreciation that is he has always got whenever he has acted in a Vikram Bhatt directed film. Also more often than not, the role is that of a serious man, though there have been a few exceptions.

The two came together for the first time in 'Kasoor' that was a landmark film for Aftab as he was finally considered as a dependable actor. His act of a 30 something guy accused of murdering his own wife was handled excellently in this HIT flick. Later he appeared in a diametrically different role of a hen pecked husband in the riotous comedy-action 'Awara Paagal Deewana' where he showed his comic timing as he came up with an excellent tuning with the star of the show - Paresh Rawal.

Footpath came next year and though the film didn't work too well, Aftab's role of a cop who wants his childhood friends to be out of the world of crime was sensitively handled. Yet again Aftab was appreciated for his act. He played a 2 minute cameo in 'Deewane Huey Paagal' that completely went unnoticed and is THE only movie where Aftab's presence wasn't utilized to the most by the director.

Now the two come together again for 'Ankahee' that is told to be the best ever effort from both the director and the actor. While Vikram is said to be baring his heart out for this film inspired by his own life, Aftab, who has been searching for an elusive hit for quite some time now, gets a role of a lifetime to play a real life character who is stuck between two women [Esha Deol, Amisha Patel].

There is a strong buzz in the industry that after 'Kasoor', this could be the best ever coming together of Vikram and Aftab that should surpass even their work in 'Awara Paagal Deewana' and 'Footpath'!
